Separate names with a comma.
It doesn't work like that, though. My utility has specific regular suppliers and when they need more electricity it is purchased from other...
The fine for speeding is generally more than for running a red light. If you're willing to risk one ticket, why not the other? What about the...
It isn't wise when your electricity sources are cleaner than burning gasoline.
Unfortunately traffic signals in the Los Angeles area are not timed. Instead, they are triggered by ground loops and there is no set pattern or...
Where can we access some data to support this? It seems like the footprint of manufacturing a larger gasoline engine and the additional...
Unfortunately when I run out of EV I have to use HV. Even then the warm-up cycle continues to run the ICE when ICE power is not needed. What...
Whether or not "only" accounting for gasoline usage is something to feel good about depends on your source of electricity. Since my electricity is...
My "normal" is somewhere around 500 mpg, but can be as high as 600. I usually have to engage the ICE to climb the last steep hill without...
In an ideal world all of our engines and regeneration are 100% efficient. The real-world problem is that the system isn't 100% efficient. For the...
Indeed. At some point the slope becomes a fairly small factor. A 0.9% grade is less slope than your average rain gutter (which looks pretty level...
The return trip does not "cancel" the effect of elevation. You will get less range going up and down an 8% hill than you will a 2% hill. The...
To be fair, natural gas used to generate electricity generates half the carbon of coal, 130 times less sulfur, and 4 times less nitrogen. On the...
It's very dependent on all of the planets and stars lining up in addition to technique. If one extra traffic light had been red, or if traffic had...
The edit function is not working for me. What I mean is that flooring it never happens in EV mode. The warm up cycle comes into play when I use HV...
That's something that never happens in my PiP. I guess for my driving style the warm up cycle is only a penalty. It may only use 111 mL of fuel,...
Highway speed about 57 mph. It's downhill mostly, but barely. There are two steep uphill slopes I have to take at about 25 mph to avoid burning...
I finally made my entire morning commute (including 10 miles of freeway driving) on battery power alone. [IMG]
I still can't think of a scenario where warming up the catalytic converter would reduce the overall pollution from the PiP versus just running the...
I wonder how long before other standard features in cars start "needing" updates that the dealer can charge for. Can you imagine if radios came...
In American politics free trade is only good when it's forcing American workers to compete with third world wages, and it's very bad when it...
