    My Rav 4 EV was bought back by Toyota

    Saying if it would be serviced in days it were a Tesla is a bit false. If Tesla did not have Toyota to hide behind they would have to redesign all the crap they made here like the earlier junk they made and have considerable costs. Toyota has a long reputation for quality and reliability and the...

    How do you gauge RAV4 EV efficiency?

    Sounds like it is funding other projects. There is no decent business case to make an app for a car with 2600 units, the cost per unit would be very high. The math is easy and only a fraction of owners will be buying the app. Of course it makes sense if you can find takers above the $100 mark.

    ALL POSTS - GOM - Range Meter - Distance To Empty meter

    The RAV is a very inefficient EV comparatively, you can't compare it to a ICE pig that gets 13 MPG. As far as EVs go it's by no means efficient.

    Buying new tires...anyone done this already

    You will be buying the same size tire, this is a non issue and if your tire made that much difference in clearance you would have much bigger issues.

    ALL POSTS - motor whine or "HUM" (Milling Sound)

    It is a different motor and smaller than the model S, could even be the design they may be intending to use on a future Tesla model. They certainly get to test it well.

    Observed: Regenerative braking cut by traction control

    The braking system on modern EVs takes over when traction is lost during braking since the ABS must take control at this point.

    Solution to avoid range anxiety - Carry a generator

    A 2011-12 LEAF has a 3.3kw charger and a 3.8kw load. A 2013-14 model has a 6kw charger (not 6.6) and a 6.6kw load.

    Solution to avoid range anxiety - Carry a generator

    I know you don't want to hear this but if you ask anyone with extensive EV experience and common sense they will tell you not to buy that cheap generator and to rent a car. Take the advice of others FORGET USING A GENERATOR, you will thank yourself. As said before this is a topic that has truly...

    Solution to avoid range anxiety - Carry a generator

    No matter how you slice it a generator is an extremely poor choice.
