For sure, if it works it works. On my part I'd like to know the specifics of why so I can adapt my approach (the how) in varying conditions like...
I ask because the Longer glide = better mph explanation almost always seems to have lower average speeds, so I'm not sure if the actual lesson to...
Most descriptions of PnG recommend a speed delta of at least 10 mph, can someone explain why? Shouldn't a short pulse + short glide be roughly...
Yup battery's happier. MPG better too, to my surprise, though maybe I shouldn't be.
That's fair, I've often been using about 1 tick of EV since I've heard a little bit of use is better than a little bit of regen, and also Ken from...
I'm pretty sure it's not the 12V draining the traction battery, though admittedly it is quite old now. During regular steady state cruising, the...
I agree, though there's not much choice in the matter if the car wants to recharge. If the light is red, then you have to charge while stationary....
On a related note, does anyone know if there's an engine state that charges the battery faster, or are we at the mercy of whatever the ECU feels...
If anyone is curious, the engine recharge state is about 1200 RPM, and about 65% load, which is pretty similar to the warm-up stage. Strangely,...
Thanks for letting me know it's not a unique case. Yeah I'm looking to figure out what the engine is doing during stationary recharge to make a...
Whenever I'm PnG'ing in a hybrid (prius v) at low-ish speeds, like 30mph or less, I've noticed that the Traction battery charge tends to drop with...
Seems like I'm pretty lucky to still manage above EPA Where is this displayed?
How much does an uphill eat into MPG? My morning commute is a gradual downhill which is fantastic, but going back home means I'm steadily going...
