Very logical information on PHEV with Gasoline relation. I am the right victim of ignorance. I used to drive CT200H which is Lexus Hybrid compact hatchback. This is a little luxury model of Prius. I used to fill gas 3 times year. 10 gal per each usually. My drive range is less than 20 miles...

There are many factors related to use proper electric device. Easy to recall those factors are in the way from Grid line to final equipment. Imagine the lines from to AC outlet. From Main grid line to braker. Then use one copper line(usually not to lose any power by connecting lines) to switch...

Good question. Lots of people have different answer on this question. I don't remember in which thread instantly, I loaded up my questions on this issue. Nobody gave me concreate answer on this as scientific background. Someone(Danie77) did a tremendously good job and provided enough information...

Google AI says US EPA declared 20% will be use for moving, 80% for heat and others. If i spend a dollar, 20 cents for moving. There is another expression that only about 12%–30% of the energy from the fuel you put in a conventional vehicle is used to move it down the road, by fueleconomy.gov

I have read all posting here and I feel comfort with how you guys share ideas each other. First, I would like to say Hello to Maby, because you look similar generation to me. I also retired old man and my driving routines are less than 20miles(32km) and usually every other day. For me, now is...

By the way, I would like to write my opinion on fuel efficiency of the ICE car, Hybrid car and PHEV. This is purely my personal opinion. Please do not blame me why I have such an opinion instead, pinpoint on the details with reliable sources. Those will be added to me as new knowledge. First...

That is good and important information for a newbie in PHEV, especially driving a short distance daily like me. I used to drive Hybrid and Hybrid engine maintenance not so much different than general ICE. If I add my excuse of "Unlimited Gas Mileage" is just an expression, not an practical...

I visited this thread hooked by fuel consumption issue, because I just bought 2022 Outlander PHEV SEL model in Florida, US. Most of the people except who drives supercar or super-looks-car concerns about Gas Mileage. As I have been lived my most of the time with ICE cars only. Just from decade...

Even though you said "I just give.." but I strongly believe that there must be a written communication regarding job. I am curious about how the $1000 has been spent on what kind of jobs done. I would like to copy what you've done on the car. My aim is I keep my car at least 10 years from now...

Thank you for your all advices. I am planning to drive 70 miles every 6 months and this will be a solution for ICE engine. By the way, I am influenced by AndylnOz Photo (Illustration) and I ask Edge AI to draw my illustration and will us this as temporary my ID Photo. Actually it is far...

Hahaha, Since Canada is cold, that option is more attractive to the public to sell more cars. You have more often power problems than Florida. In Florida, I guess, more concern on Solar power back up. I envy you, too.

Hi, Daniel77 I found another post under your name describing inverter what you have installed with more details. Too much thanks to you for your information. But still I have several unanswered questions regarding this inverter installing. One of them is that how you determine maximum supporting...

I think you are right. I will be more cautious on installing inverter. Also, I will search different car forum, too.

I envy you who has 120v(240v) AC outlet. When I bought my Outlander PHEV SEL on July 23, 2024, I did not search this car enough on the web. After I bought it, I found that SEL is basic and GT model has 120v AC 1500w outlet. But at that time no GT was in the market within my budget, that...

I am new to PHEV. I used to drive Hybrid, but not PHEV. My usual drive is once a week to Walmart which is 15 miles round trip, 2 times a week all other errends within 5 miles round trip, once in 3 months to Doctor's office visit within 15 miles round trip, once every 6 months for visiting...

Ha ha ha, you definitely have a good sense of humor, too with engineer knowledge. As an old man, I am good. When we open Fuse box, can you find how many fuses are in there? Most of them is 5A to 30A and total practical available use of 120A is usual, not by the book but by the wind from...

I have 2022 Outlander PHEV SEL. I live in Florida. Leaflet or car reviews regarding PHEV, they say GT model has 1500w 120V AC outlets in Trunk and rear of center consol. On/Off Switch of this function is located in front center under AC control. But only in GT model.

Does this mean you don't hear any noise when your car is moving backward in the driveway or parking? My car is 2022 Outlander PHEV SEL. What's yours?

Thank you for your kind explanation. By the way if it is manually created, is there any way to deactivate the sound? Can I find it in user manual?

Thanks. You pinpointed out my thought. A decade + year ago, I had blackout in my area for 4-5 days in the city. That is like hell to me. My basement had been soaked and all food become garbage. FEMA helped me out financially but the mental damage was so big. after that, Just a few hours of Power...
