Separate names with a comma.
You mentioned battery rarely exceed 3 bars right? What's happening us that, ICE generates very little power during the warmup. Battery is used...
It is actually easier on the battery because the work is now split between the battery and gas engine. The engine gets normal work out also,...
Another way to put it is, it feels like a different gear ratio -- like going into super overdrive. A totally different experience.
That incentive was available back in 2012. I got mine like that.
How do you plug tens of thousand of plugins into a single outlet? You can't. To answer your question, you plug them into any outlet in the 50...
PiP lowered carbon footprint over a regular Prius from 222 -> 220 g/mi, not much but an improvement. This is while displacing gas consumption with...
33% efficiency after transmission and distribution means 67% still waste heat. That doesn't get into cabin for warmth. You have no control as it...
The cost of fuel cell stack came down to 1/10th of what it was 5 years ago. It is projected to go down another 1/10 in the next 5 years. It is not...
FUD? :)It would be compressed in a bullet proof crash tested carbon fiber tank.Talk about leak... a self-discharged battery pack would leak out...
You are rightly more accurate. LHD and HSD are the same thing. Motor, power inverter, battery, regen brake and the "brain" that choose the most...
It should. I think NiMh pack in regular Prius are rated 27 kW with about 10 seconds short burst.
This FCV will be a hybrid using Hybrid Synergy Drive. On their road map, there is a plugin FCV so you can charge it at home for short trips using...
Some people just assume EV miles are cleaner and more efficient and no need to balance the two fuels. Ford Energi tried to get EV to 85 mph and...
EV Boost is when you are in EV and go above 65 mph. ICE comes on and blend gas with electricity. I am not talking about during the warmup but...
See EIA: "About 2/3 of the energy used to generate, transmit, and distribute electricity is “lost” at power plants and in power lines."...
Sage, 33% includes transmission loss already.
Volt and Energi gas engines are not as efficient as Prius. So, what TH said maybe true of those plugins but I have not done the math yet.
Gas production+transport is 83% efficient. Prius is 39% efficient. Electricity production+distribution is 33% efficient. EV is 85% efficient....
I want to see Ryden dual carbon battery in Gen4.
Well deserved and highly under-rated. About time...
