Default Re: Hymotion PHEV Now Available To Consumers

$10,000 includes labor. 180 pounds added (minus 20 lbs. for a spare tire? my estimate) 3 year warranty. Still saddled with Prius EV limits (34 miles per hour using a forced mode via EV switch, 42 MPH if not forced).

Estimate of 100 MPG at 4.5 hours charge for the 1st 40-50 miles. nano-Li-phosphate pack.

We are so getting there! Next year at this time I hope to post my successful conversion using this. 10 grand to make my car almost new again? It's worth it to me. But for every other reason beyond cost and $$$ savings.

.

'04 Seaside Pearl #7. Fumoto oil drain, mudflaps, rear bumper scuff protector & rear warn system, compass mirror, EV mode button, 8" subwoofer in right rear cubby & 6" subs under seats, power lumbar in the front seats, Coastaletech hitch w/ Aspen bike/snowboard rack. iPod2car, 2 amps, Alpine component speakers, and DVD video, solid 47 MPG @ 70000 miles.
