Hybrid cars/Prius

Recommended Posts

> And the Prius is MUCH faster if both vehicles have empty tanks!

up till the point where the battery won't do the job. I can push a motorcycle alone - it's 400-550lbs. But to catch up would take quite a while, even if the prius is only able to go a couple miles on battery.

>100mph has got to knock the mpg down to at least 30. Can you check
>it out on the way home and get back to us Bill?

Well, averaging 90 gets you about 36mpg, so . . .

Damn. I got PA'd for going 95 mph. Is there a diff between 90 and 95?[:/]

I also had no idea the Prius could do 100mph.



I would expect it from any car that is able to go 65 mph up steep highway hills. Of course some cars can't do that.
