THE TOYOTA PRIUS HAS THE MOST DRIVING TIME PER GALLON THAN MOST CARS IN THE MARKET.....WATCH AND READ....
Hours per Gallon are better that Miles per Galllon.
When you try to have a count of Miles per Gallon a lot of variables got something with it, that makes the process very complex and not that accurate.
There is a common factor that affects all calculations, the time. Yes, the time that runs all the times when you drive your car even when your stop but with the engine still running.
The time that is mentioned could be qualified according to driving conditions that you usualy face in traffic. Stop and go, up and down, slow and fast, smooth road and rough road, windy road and quiet road, low altitude and high altitude, and the traditional factors, like tire psi, cargo weight, accessory on/off, etc., that will determine the quality time you got.
I would prefer to say how many hours per gallon I am getting instead how many gallons. How many of high or low quality time I am getting. Instead of those intrincated calculations that always are not consistent.
I would like to have three clocks in car:
1.- To measure electric engine/motor working time;
2.- To measure gas enginge working/motor time; and
3.- To measure both, 1 and 2 for total working time count.
Those clocks will inform the driver the traffic to take to get more working time out the car per galon of comsumption.
I would like to be able to say how many hours of driving time I am getting per full tank. It will much easier to know what your car can perform according to gas prices. You will be able to calculate how much money your spending per hour or per minute during driving time.
When you get stock and stop in traffic the time still counts as a driving time. Other vehicles different than Prius will be spending gas a that time, but you will not. That is why the Prius has more driving time than most of vehicles in the world of today.
