Separate names with a comma.
Ok, so they are just comparing Manual, CVT (mechanical) and HV (eCVT). At 10hp, ICE is about 35% efficient but the Fuel Consumption Ratio (system...
HEV in the graph is not Prius but a 42 MPG hybrid. PHEV is the Volt. 50 MPG Prius emits 222 g/mi while PiP would emit 230 g/mi. Beyond Tailpipe...
Min 10hp threshold has been true since Gen1 Prius with 1.5L. With, 1.8L, they had to do EGR to reduce pumping loss further to maintain that 10hp....
I am seeing more PiP in Fort Lee, NJ area. Mostly white ones like mine.
It takes about 100 kWh of fossil fuel (coal, gas, nuclear, renewable - grid mix) to produce 33.7 kWh of electricity. Once it is produced, EV is...
The trunk opening "mouth" is not U anymore but like V. It may not be as flexible to load wide stuffs.
It is happening to my 2006 Prius (my bro has it now). It started in Jan but it is becoming more frequent. The car was in service in March 2006....
Torque split is constant. Power split varies depending on the MG1 rev and torque.
Interesting. If SiC makes it into production, there will be more room under the hood. There is no reason for the 12V to be in the trunk. I expect...
Thanks for confirming you have a prototype that you guys are not showing to us. Sure, throw the cardboards on (but don't tape them) and drive it...
If 7% more exhaust gas is recycled, the warm up time should be shorter too, as more exhaust heat recovery is possible.
I think the goal is to use the coolant from ICE, so there is only one loop and one pump. Gen1 to Gen3 inverter need separate coolant since the...
I don't know what motion control they were talking about.
Toyota just announced that the test showed 5% increase in fuel economy. Their goal is to improve 10% with further optimization. Target launch is...
Nikkei confirmed Gen4 to launch in 2015. The engine efficiency is also bumped to 40% from 38.5% of Gen3. The maximum thermal efficiency of the...
Similar but not as severe. $3,150 for Prius vs. $7,500 plus additional state incentives.
You can create a virtual PID using MG2 rev and MG2 torque. Name: MG2 hp Equation: (VAL{MG2 Rev}*VAL{MG2 Torque})/5252 Unit: hp
It could be a Hyundai's Prius killer hybrid.
I was suggesting only in term of energy. Not of emission or reliability because they are different from fossil vs. solar.
You can charge up your Prius with solar too. Just put up a solar panel that would replace fossil fuel electricity. It'll cancel out the fossil...
