What I read about the Prius, the standard version has a 1.8 kWh NiMh battery.
From the size of the car, this should be at last 10 km. Special at slow motion city trafic.
Today, I made a test drive with a Prius.
At the begining of the Alpenstraße in Salzburg is green wafe at 50km/h
Thought this would be good to test EV. But after only 1 km, the Prius switched back to gasoline engine.
At the Nontal bridge, there is usual slow moving city traffic.
I switched with 80% battery on the indicator again to EV.
30 km/h, a traffic jam slowly moving towards the traffic light at the Staats-bridge. Just after 1 km as I got green at the Staats-bridge, again switched back to gasoline engine.
I think the energy usage can be for this distance only 150..180 Wh,
but in no was 1800 Wh what should be the total of the battery.
Why?
What happens?
