My III with NAV has touch screen. Think it is NAV that put it there, put could have been upgraded head unit of the III. Don't know that I'd miss...
OP: I concur. stealth no good at high speeds. DWL no good on long climbs. bob: The idea is to use the ICE for brief periods of thrust (near...
Suggest getting a quote from the mechanic you trust. I use the brakes so little that I'd be hard to persuade that brake flush and clean/adjust...
Keep those tires firm. psi=mpg.
Technically, p&g only goes up to 45 mph (gen3) or 41 mph (gen2). We use p&g to refer to a glide with the engine not spinning. Above those...
Commute 1.5 miles each way, wife driving (non-hypermiler). Over 9 months and 13500 miles, 50 mpg average (true). Highway trips a little more,...
Congrats! Time to upgrade your "other non-hybrid" profile! I also waited 3 years to buy; kept hitting the gas price spikes that made buying hard.
And hopefully the rest of us are safe hypermilers driving legally. And in Lake Wobegon all the children are above average. I am not suggesting...
I would say it is only having to run the ICE for acceleration, versus full time, that makes the difference from Matrix, Corolla to Prius. I beat...
Don't worry about mpg while gliding or coasting unless it is NOT 99.9. The engine is off (spinning without fuel use above 42 mph), so mpg is...
So, the ICE propelled the car, and rather than allow the car to glide, you saved energy by a 50% efficient round trip from kinetic to chemical and...
See the warming up stages sticky thread in the gen3 forum. 10 mph is the max speed in EV mode unless conditions are met to allow 25 mph. Your...
Not for me. I never stated what it did for you or others. The real point is, the more regen "benefit" you get, the less you have succeeded in...
Regen braking is a neat but overall minor reason why hybrids are efficient. The more regen you do, the lower your mpg. I concur regen beats...
UOA's indicate transaxle fluid should be changed, according to threads here by BobWilson4Web and others. Concur you can probably push it, but the...
Yeah, it's weird. But I've come to accept that in some situations one should 'sit & charge' a Prius for 50 seconds, so the ICE can provide power...
The glaring omission here is transaxle fluid. No clear Toyota recommendation, but I've seen something like 90K, then every 60K. Some start much...
Ken1784 from Japan indicates their tests show it IS better to sit and idle through stage 1a (about a minute) IF you must make demands on the...
What tires are you running? What psi in those tires? What oil do you use? What is the oil level? Is the cabin air filter clean? Is the engine air...
What is any passenger car without its powertrain? The hybrid system is what makes it special. The stereo is a stereo, just like other passenger...
