I noticed that there are two categories in the mileage database for the Prius (1st and 2nd generation). Given all of the changes in the 06 HCH (particularly the EV mode), does it make sense to have an HCH-II category? I'm not clear on what the criteria is for creating a new category...

 

yes.

Ahh, thanks. I guess I need to browse the other forums

 

I will likely be adding the Civic II and Mariner hybrids this weekend.

 

Hi Jason:

___I cannot wait to see what the first one or two are doing on brand new rubber and brand new, non-broken in ICE’s … I am seeing some really excellent numbers scattered around the net but the RHMDB is where those posts actually meet the road

___Any of you HCH-II drivers see a nice 80 mpg on the instantaneous at 50 mph in decent temps and terrain? This is the question some of us really really want to know as my local dealership does not have an HCH-II in yet

___Good Luck

HCH-II is in the RMDB now. There's a car in there already. It's reporting 53.4 mpg for the first 250 miles. It's starting to look like Honda's FE estimates were conservative.

 

Hi Moosh:

___Maybe the owner backed out his or her data because I don’t see it this morning?

___Good Luck

It's there but you can only seeing it by clicking the HCH-II link; it won't show up on the main page listing all the cars. Adam_CivicHybrid posted it but the data he entered claims he got 53.4 mpg over 0 miles on 0 tanks of gas. Maybe his bad data messed the database up?

 

Hi CGameProgrammer:

___Now I see it, thanks! His/her entry is kind of a mess

___Good Luck
