    I was wondering how far can one expect to go with a full charged battery in the EV mode while driving at 40 mph or less with the ac off in the daytime ?. Just wondering.

    10 - 15 miles is a good guess.
    In summer I typically get about 15...as high as 16-17. I'm down to ~12.5 now and it will down more as it gets colder.

    That's for a PIP. For a -normal- Prius a few miles if you're lucky.

    Maybe a mile. I was able to go 2 miles on a closed section of highway but I went really slow up the hills and coasted down them to try to get as far as I could.
