I would think so. Having to replace the Battery ECU and relays etc. would add quite a bit to the cost for no real reason. Rob
Great thread! Thanks for taking the time to share the process with us! Rob
I'm not sure I understand the question, but here's how I understand things. The 12V battery is used to "start" the car, booting up the computers...
-'73 Saab Sonett III - Amazing how much fun you could have with 74hp. Fiberglass body 2 seater, FWD, I swear my head was only about 2' off the...
It may be worth noting that no US BMW 3 series made in the last 10 years is rated at over 29 mpg highway even with a stick. If the OP is getting...
If you have access to one, the safest way by far is to swap it into working Prius. One pink bar should still be enough to start the ICE and...
Just keep in mind that anytime you are using battery you are using gas. 9G's case may be somewhat special, as he does this all right at the end...
I think you're on the right track. I've been arguing a similar point. 40 mile range is great until you have to pay for the batteries. Li-ion...
Very cool! Good find. Rob
Could be. I had thought the gen 1 battery modules were different enough though that they would not be off the same line. I kind of wonder if the...
FWIW I don't believe the Prius shortage had much to do with batteries, though that theory was bandied about in the media. I think its just as...
I believe what you are seeing is the following: At constant highway cruising, there is a small amount of electricity being generated and stored...
I would think that the Prius' lower consumption and smaller tank would both naturally cause more variation as well. +/- 1 mpg on 25mpg will right...
I'm confused. What is the point of their telling us they could get it down to 3.8L/100km if they wanted to, but are actually going to sell it at...
Man, this guy is a spin master for sure. Paint the Volt as the best thing since sliced bread, and the Prius as old tech. Speak of it in the...
daniel, I think we are on the same page. I want all EV too. I just think that for the next 3-5 years HSD or other mixed serial/parallel hybrid...
I'd have to agree. A number of manufacturers have been pushing PZEV as an attempt to greenwash the fact that they have no small fuel efficient...
Then again, since the HCH is smaller and slower than the Prius one would expect it to be better than the Prius, not almost as good ;) If Honda's...
What you are saying is I believe correct. However we measure and regulate the bigger particles but not the smaller ones. To be fair gasoline...
I can't agree with that statement. The latest diesels are certainly a big improvement and they are now comparable with some gas cars. However...
