Replying to: usbseawolf2000 (Apr 19, 2004 8:50 am) It turns out to be true (2 years later). See the real world mpg for 2WD from http://www.greenhybrid.com/compare/mileage/ Accord 2WD Auto Hybird - 29 mpg (ULEV) Escape 2WD eCVT Hybrid - 31 mpg (AT-PZEV) The SUV that is cleaner than a family car. A full hybrid vs. mild hybrid. Dennis

Replying to: usbseawolf2000 (Apr 18, 2004 10:08 am) Toyota even out-did my estimates. TCH ICE makes 147 hp and MG2 makes 105 kW. ----------------------------------------------------------- "Camry hybrid with 4 cylinder engine can have performance of an Accord V6 with fuel economy of a Honda Civic!" It turns out 0-60 for TCH is 7.3 sec vs. Accord V6 7.0 sec and get better fuel economy than the Civic EX Auto (last gen Civic 32/37 mpg, as I made this statement almost 2 years ago). We have yet to see 30-50, 50-70, and top gear acceleartion numbers. TCH peaks power at 192 hp and Accord EX V6 peaks at 240 hp. Peak power say little about car's performance with the introduction of full hybrids. Dennis |

Replying to: usbseawolf2000 (Apr 01, 2006 11:36 am) 2 vehicles with equal weight. One has 253hp the other has 155hp. One goes 0-60mph in 6.1. One goes 0-60mph in 8.9. Which one should get better fuel economy? It is a surprise that the numbers are so close. A performance mild hybrid versus a slow full hybrid that weigh the same. Which should get better gas mileage? Obvious to some; a surprise to others.

Replying to: midnightcowboy (Apr 05, 2006 12:34 pm) Would the electric motors sustain running at 75 MPH without ICE for two minutes or so while the battery drained? |

Replying to: midnightcowboy (Apr 05, 2006 12:34 pm) How do you define "run"? Prius' ICE will always run above 42 mph because how the PSD was arranged. It does not mean the gas is consuming all the time. There are times when I go downhill  70 mph and get 99.99 mpg. For Camry, it might be different since it has additional planetary gearset as a Speed Reduction Unit. If the ICE is on when the battery is full (not really full, only 80%) then only the ICE is powering the car. Otherwise, HSD can use both MGs to consume the battery. HSD can use the battery at any moment on demand. It usually have the battery SOC of about 60% so when you slow down, regen brake can fill it up. Dennis

Replying to: usbseawolf2000 (Apr 05, 2006 4:35 pm) > wheels. No conversion is 100% efficient and it is like throwing away energy. That is why Honda's IMA systme can achieve better highway than city mileage and the HSD system can not: "highway inefficiency". Cheers, MidCow P.S.- If you will look back this has already been discussed ad infinitum and you were actaully in the discussions already so I am curious as to your questions ?
