Separate names with a comma.
That's the current theory in EV mode based on the fact that it is basically the charge depletion mode. The car's priority is to use up the battery...
Just imagine ICE running in isolation to produce heat, not consuming nor producing electricity. EV mile estimate can drop. That's Mark's...
The debate is if marginal cost should be used because the basic charge should be distributed evenly. If on-grid is chosen, the basic charge...
In EV mode, if you sit in the car, your EV range will drop too. There is an overhead to keep the car in Ready state.
The same answer. Battery life. The higher the speed, the more power and energy it will need from the battery for both accelerating to and...
Snowing today so technician will not be able to try to reproduce it today. I rescheduled it to Monday. Hopefully the road is dry.
The cost is unique to every household, isn't it? Isn't it the point? Otherwise, just go with NY state average and there is no need for everyone...
Absolutely. Gen1 Prius had belt driven AC. If you turned on AC at stop light, ICE would come on. It wasn't until Gen2, electric AC was...
A flat fee is unpredictable? TOU and Tier system would make it unpredictable to answer your question. If both neighbor charge at different time...
It is not induction. It is resonant. Charging loss is pretty low despite the distance. It can transferred through many materials safely (cat...
It is a flat fee prerequisite, not an incremental. Therefore, it needs to be spread for any kWh drawn afterward. The more you use it, the lower...
Perhaps, It goes to maintain idling rev of the ICE. The same as manual tranny car idling unclutched at stop light. I visualize MG1 freely...
Why do you not consider it as the cost of getting electricity from the grid?
I think the light bulbs should take the fixed cost as fridge and microwave came later. ;)
We'll have to narrow down to what SOC (or other conditions?) that changes the behavior.
You are right. Battery temp and its ability to discharge is also in the parameter.
My understanding is from my ownership experience with Gen2 and discussion on here since 2004 (boy, 10 years already). My observation also come...
My understanding was that, his case was above the "comfortable" threshold. So ICE just idle to generate heat for cabin. His EV miles decreased...
There may be conditions you may not aware of. That doesn't mean they are not there. Remember, the first priority for Prius is to reduce...
