Exactly, as I said in my post you are replying to. But regen hurt your fuel economy compared to letting it roll. Glad you are still alive. Be safe.
If you are in Stage 4 operation, it should shut down below 42 mph when not needed for power. No clue why things changed for you. Above 42 mph it...
Cash for clunkers made a difference in Prius sales. Looking at year to date it is not that bad. Gas is too cheap. Once Chindia growth soaks up...
Good point, but... It takes fossil fuel to extract both oil and coal. But burning the coal is akin to burning the gasoline. It would be great to...
Andy, you are better off (ignoring speed limits for now) letting the car pick up speed which is then used on the next climb, than you are using...
No, Dominic, you are not there yet. Your pulses need to be stronger, up near or even into the PWR section of the HSI bar. The ICE doesn't even...
Acceleration will dramatically reduce impg. Sad fact of physics. Some go a little faster than others to get it over with. Short low mpg...
andy, again, you only hurt your mpg by braking, period. regen is better than friction, but still inefficient. Brake when you have to....
Consider my interpretation from the all labels pdf at pages 12 and 13 IIRC: Volt, being a serial design (largely EV first, then gas) will get a...
Normal "friction" brakes convert kinetic energy to heat. Prius substitutes the motor-generators resistance for the normal brakes when it can...
And drive downhill both ways. cheater :-P
I'm not suggesting quantifying it, just pointing out that these number assume all renewable electricity. Maybe state on the web site what the...
Congrats on a great start! Not sure I agree with andy completely. If the hill is big enough to fill the pack no matter what, use B mode. If the...
As I see it, under label 2, which I like, volt will get an mpge for 40 electric miles, not 50 blended miles. This makes sense in that it tells...
John is the esteemed leader of the "just drive it" camp, using only limited hypermiling techniques to show what prospective buyers can expect...
That's quite a report. Over my head at a glance. Figure 3.7 (p. 41) seems to give the -10 and -20 their AER, but cut the -30 to -20 levels and...
Great deal. Suggest you double check the oil fill level and the tire pressure, as some shops tend to over fill the oil and under fill the tires.
Any regen is less efficient than simply conserving the momentum. Braking will never increase mpg or (edit: reduce) wh/m, even when a portion of...
Here's why you are dead wrong on engine choice, austin: With a more economical engine they would lose a percentage of those customers who climb...
