Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: 2004 - Mileage Per Tank


Sep 8, 2012

My 2004 has 132K miles and still running great. We now have a PIP standard model as well. I can't find a screen that tells what the overall mileage per tank is. Does it exist on this car?

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: EV Mileage Range Down To 9.8 From 12.4

My Plugin is only about 4 months old, but the EV mileage range is now down to 9.8 from 12.4 from the first very first day I charged it overnight. This with HVAC and fan off.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: EV Mileage Sudden Drop

I was driving up a hill today at about 30 mph with .9 miles remaining showing on my EV battery meter when all of a sudden it drops to 0 EV miles remaining and shows only 2 of the battery level bars (which is very very low), and the engine of course turns on. What happened?

I promise I did not push the EV power bar over its threshold. I monitor that like a hawk. I also know for a fact that it jumped from .9 to 0, because I watch that part like a hawk. This part of the trip is near the end of my drive home and I've done it about 50 times so far with no issues. With .9 miles left at that point on the hill I have always been able to make it to my driveway with .4 or .5 remaining, so this is very odd.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: 2014 - Mileage From 45 - 46 Normal?

Brand new 2014 Prius Plug in. I am getting about 45 mpg on a 14-mile all-city trip and 46 mpg on a 30-mile mixed hwy/city trip. The mpg numbers are from the information display when the car were turned off.

Is that normal? I thought it's supposed to be about 50 mpg. Btw, ECO mode was enabled.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Mileage Is Off - Check Engine Light Comes On

My son got this for his '05 Prius, and I plugged it into my PiP for awhile. I am learning to brake more slowly and accelerate more gradually, but the mileage is obviously way off. That seems to be about all it's good for, unless a check engine light comes on.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: EV Mileage Dropped Without Any Apparent Reason

I just took advantage of incentives and traded in my 2012 PiP for a 2015. In hilly San Francisco I'm accustomed to between 8 and 9 all-electric miles per full charge. Today was the new PiP's maiden voyage--a six-mile trip that in the old car would leave me with 2.1 to 2.3 EV miles remaining (per the readout.) But the new car actually ran out of electric power just before the trip's conclusion.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Drop In Estimated Gas Mileage While In EV Mode

While driving in EV mode I noticed my remaining estimated gas mileage drops. I watch the dash and the EV is constantly light and it doesn't appear the the ICE is coming on. Is this normal?

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: PHV Range Could Increase Mileage Without Using EV Mode?

I'm just curious...if somebody drives a PHV Prius like a regular Prius (not using the 13 mile pure EV mode range), could they theoretically get better gas mileage by staying in the electric part of the hybrid system indicator?

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Engine Start Resetting Mileage Back To Zero

I have a vague memory that the PiP will start its petrol engine every XXX miles just for a maintenance warm up if it has not been used for that mileage. An engine start will reset that mileage back to zero and start recounting its EV miles until that limit is reached again. What is that limit?

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Cold Weather Driving (Rattling Noises) - Gas Mileage Down

Today, I experienced the coldest temperatures yet on my drive to work. At one point, I saw a '24F' shown as the outside temperature (although not unusual for April in Minnesota):

Expected: My gas mileage was down a bit. I was impressed it wasn't as bad as I would have expected from our 2005 Prius, though.

I should have expected: On the last 1/2 mile or so, when driving slow on the little bit of EV left while in the forced HV mode, I accidentally accelerated too much and forced on the ICE again (it had been previously on earlier in my 22 mile commute). This time, however, it was different because it didn't shut off immediately. I think the ICE had to do a second warm up. I'll have to watch that more closely next time (darn that cold weather)!

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Slosh Noises When Gas Tank Is Full

When the gas tank is full, it makes an audible sloshing noise when coming to a stop or going into a parking lot ramp. For a few days, I thought that something was loose in the rear suspension or trunk, then realized it was the fluid in the gas tank. Of course, I generally notice it only when the radio is off or low and I'm performing the above tasks and the ICE isn't running.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Display Average MPG For Current Tank Of Gas?

I just upgraded from a 2004 Prius Six to a 2012 Plug in Advanced. My wife used to love watching the average mpg for the current tank of gas as she drove, and wants to know where to find that display on the new car. For some reason, I just can't find it and couldn't find any reference to it in the FAQ. Am I missing something simple? That number was her favorite incentive.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Gas Fill Ups - Full / Half Tank Or Less?

Since purchase, I've had one gas fill up at 694 miles. That was four or five weeks ago and it's still full. My EV ratio is 65% (1100 miles) and will continue to increase. I realize I'm carrying a lot of dead weigh for weeks. For those with high EV mode use, what's your recommendation with gas fill ups? I'm thinking no more than fives gallons for daily commute and around town.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: How Accurate Is The Estimated Miles Left In Tank

I was wondering how accurate the estimated miles in the tank is? For the next two days I will have a 204 mile commute. The Prius estimates I have 210 miles left. Should I be able to make it?

Prius (Gen 3) Fuel :: 2015 - Gas Mileage Per Tank

I recently purchased a new prius 2015. When I first got the vehicle and filed up it would say I had approximately 600 miles to go now it says I have approximately 400 something and I actually get a little under 400. So how many miles do you get let tank? Are they mostly highway or town miles? When you fill up how many miles does your car say you have? Also I was wondering how to actually get battery meter to ever say full I can never seem to get the last bar. And when I purchased the car they told me I couldn't go any faster then 15mph in ev mode but I actually can't go any faster then 8 mpg which kind of mashes the feature useless.

Prius V :: Nav Display With Different Mileage Comparatively To Tank

I purchased a Prius v (lowercase v for the Prius v wagon) Five (Five not V, uppercase roman numerals were used for only mode year 2010 Prius liftback models) about 6 months ago. When I first got it the "range" display on my dash would claim somewhere around 425 miles on a full tank. Now when I fill it up it says 375. I'm not sure if it adapts to my driving or not.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: 2004 - Short Invoking EV Mode / Car Goes Electric Only

When driving, when I hit a medium- light bump in the road and slightly jar the car, I hear a beep and the car goes into EV mode. This means the rpm's drop to zero, the gas engine shuts off and the car goes electric only. This is a problem because the state of charge then runs the bars on the multi-function-display down to the purple bar level.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Scheduled Timer For Plug-in Charge Only Shows Finish Time?

After my 25k service it seems the timer scheduler when the square button is pressed/held flashes at 7am. When i press the H button the hour advances to 12am then closes. I want to start the charge at 12am and finish at 5AM. The timer windows closes when i move the finish hour to 12am and then my regular clock hour changes. It used to be when i pressed/held the timer button the start time would show at 12 am and after setting it would go to the finish hour.

Prius V Fuel :: 2012 - Mileage Is Down To 30.6 MPG

My 2012 Prius v (lowercase v) has about 80,000 miles on it, my work commute is 180 miles round trip daily. I had been getting 40-44 for about the first 18 months of owning/driving the exact same commute. In February I noticed when I filled the tank that the range showed around 370, which seemed odd, it was always over 400. I started tracking my mileage and it declined quickly. By mid-March I was getting a range of 320-340 with each fill up, and calculating MPG of 29-31. The dealer has had the vehicle for over a month now and can't find "anything wrong with it". Ummm, the MPG has dropped about 30%, isn't that something wrong?

Toyota - Prius :: 2012 - Mileage Decrease Upto 50 Miles Per Gallon?

I bought a 2012 Prius new and averaged just under 53 miles per gallon for the first 15,000 miles regularly. I have a long commute so my driving mix of city/highway is pretty consistent. When starting the car one morning there was a fairly loud series of clicking sounds from the engine compartment, which then stopped. From that point forward the mileage has dropped to just under 50 mpg. Same driving habits. I am bringing the car if for it's 20,000 mile check up shortly. Any ideas if something happened to the battery I should ask about? It is still under warranty.
