Separate names with a comma.
I saw this coming nearly 5 years ago and warned people. It was dismissed and accused me of starting FUD -- until someone got hurt.
I think Toyota is being realistic about the limitations of plugins. They have said they need a breakthrough in energy density for BEV to make...
Interesting. Maybe that's the Gen4 Prius. :)
Guys, I have a question about Solar ITC. I have my electric panel and service upgraded to 200 Amp about 8 months before. Now, the solar install...
To me, the best part was a photo of Gen3 concept art (similar to my profile pic) signed by the Gen3 chief engineer!
I understand why you would need ICE. The question is why do you prefer bigger battery and ok with sacraficing efficiency? My PiP EV efficiency...
Those 20" rims with low profile tires won't make to production.
Love the two tones.
I reran the BEV with 2015 simulation model year and entered 114 MPGe (Leaf). It came out to 162 g/mi, about the same as Mirai (66 MPGe).
I don't have emission data from Japan's grid but PiP EV miles are designed to cover short trips where gas engine wouldn't be able to operate at...
We just need a low resolution version. :) Any concept art that can be shared?
Did Toyota publish engineering paper about Prius engine over at SAE?
Mirai shares many components with gas-electric HSD. Motor, Battery and PCU (brain of HSD). Instead of the gas engine, it has FC stack. Since FC...
I used google translate to see what's there in the maintenance (Section 7 Pg.315). Add Washer Fluid Change Cabin Air Filter Tire Rotation Key FOB...
I changed the simulation vehicle to 2015 and the profile has it preset to 66 MPGe. I saved it as Mirai. 166 g/mi (corrected) is pretty...
Prius was the engine of change. Mirai actually changes the future of automobile, not only engine but fuel and infrastructure as well as how we'll...
Agreed. This will be collector's car for sure. It is the "Model H". A beginning of new chapter in automotive history. :)
The prototype (FCHV-Adv) had 4 tanks. Hopefully next gen can do a single big tank under the hood and everything else under the floor, with room...
Mirai is based on HS250h and that was classified as compact. Plugin incentive should end now. Hybrid incentive was phased out before the end of...
Plugin incentive advocate want to talk about level playing field? ;) FCV is a better technology with less restrictions and wider audience...
