Where hybrid cars shine is in city driving where the lower speeds and stop n go maximize their fuel economy compared to an ICE car. Where ICE cars...
It's OK to draw from a battery that's below freezing but it's harmful when you charge a battery whose temp is below freezing. Batteries warm...
It's interesting that more than 50% of owners in the poll are over the age of 50. Automakers salivate for the younger market so this might be...
I'm still using my original set of wipers (as good as new), original air filter (clean as a whistle with few ICE miles) and original cabin filter...
I've had two condensers replaced already. First before the warranty extension but still under regular warranty (my crap dealer made us pay the...
Just an update on the Prius Prime EV range: [MEDIA]
If you don't get too much snow, I'd go with the Pilot Sport AS4. If you get a lot of snow, go with the CC2. Consumer Reports actually rates the...
Thanks for the more accurate range estimate. That's the reason the typical PHEV available today gets such a bum rap, dismal range compared to the...
Mazda just introduced their first PHEV called the CX-90 (also available in 6 cyl. ICE). It's a huge AWD vehicle that's a bit longer than a BMW X5...

The simplest thing to do is to remove the battery and hide fob and battery in different places.
Alex on Autos showed the roof of the Prius Prime with a large integrated solar panel. Not clear if that'll be standard equipment or an option....
I know that this probably belongs in a different forum but since the Clarity was discontinued, a lot of folks are looking for alternatives. Toyota...
That orange plastic makes it very difficult to determine the oil level when the oil is clean, which in my case is always. I suppose it is easily...
Perhaps he was referring to the Clarity BEV with a paltry 89 mile range. That's not good enough for a lot of commutes and forget about even a...
My 2018 has about 42K miles but only about 5K in hybrid miles. Every time I change the oil, what comes out looks like new. If that engine was in a...
Just going back to the original question, you could drive the car like a BEV. The problem is that you would have to drive it gingerly and always...
