If you leave the car in "Ready" mode parked up with the AC on, you will certainly see the EV range go down after 10 minutes or so.
Yes, it's definitely the traction battery. You can see the accessory power load via an OBD-II reader, and I've seen that go up to around 1kW or so...
It was the gear, and not the chain? Was it expensive to fix?
I mean a cutaway with the outer battery assembly removed, showing the components inside. I don't see this on Wikipedia (only gen 2 battery).
I have a picture of a cutaway which was on display in Toyota Kaikan (museum in Toyota city) when I was there last year - must try and find it...

There's only about 3.3 kWh usable capacity, and the maximum charging rate is 2.2 kW @ 230V (10A), so I think what you saw is about right.
The range estimation for me always drops by about a mile in winter, even though the effective range that I can drive in EV mode doesn't seem to...
If this is the case, shouldn't it say "Key not detected" on the MFD? I don't think there are any warning lights associated with this though.
It's the base of a child seat, with ISOFIX (called "LATCH" in the US) mounts that connect to the anchor points in the rear seats (instead of using...
The "133" figure is the Miles per gallon equivalent (MPGe) of the Prime when running in EV mode - it's a way of comparing energy consumption of...
Yeah, I don't see any screws in mine, or anywhere for a screw to go. It's possible they used different fobs at different times during production...
