No, because it's more than likely just a reworking of their article, I think it's call plagiarism at best and down right lies at worse...

Lets's what Tomfoolery he is putting up now...
A vivid imagination too. He goes on....
..a sort of observation I think...we shall proceed...
...he is confuesd again. I said Atkinson cycle. I will say it again for him. "Atkinson cycle".
...he goes on in an inquiring manner....
From a generator turned by the engine.
..he notes a point...
And that you are, but with the electric transmission and the engine only used at optimum conditions, it overall is 90% les than other filthy cars.
...he is still confused...
No energy is obtained from the national grid.
...now he is philosophical...
Sad isn't it.

You should take it up with the authorities if you think Auto Express is porky telling. If they are prokie telling then we will all like to know. As their figures co-inside with mine I don't think they are telling porkies.

I wouldn't worry. He doesn't actually *have* one. Nor an Aston. He's a spotty no-mates geek with a thing for brochures.
And outside California, the Prius is a pointless heap of junk.

It does. mpg is highest around town in stop start driving.
Brakes last a hell of long time in the Prius. One taxi driver has a Mk 1 Prius that has covered over 300,000 km and nothing ever went wrong.

"One Prius was used as a taxi in Vancouver and logged over 300,000 km - until Toyota coaxed the owner to give it back to them for evaluation. Perhaps even Toyota was amazed at the durability of its product, which developed no powertrain or other mechanical problems at all during its long life. "

The message from "IMM" contains these words:
So 60 mpg is 90% less than dIMMs standard of comparison.
Not many cars around that average 6 mpg. Probably not even as many as average 60 mpg without electric assistance.

The message from "IMM" contains these words:
OK so how does the Atkinson cycle compare to the Carnot cycle?
Or is it more akin to the pedal cycle? :-)

Odd actually - at the wife's last service they asked if she wanted the oil changed. She came out to ask me waiting in my car outside to collect her and got a sharp "I expect them to ****ing do something apart from stamp the service book"

Yes you have, the car is far from simple, even Toyota accept that - hence all the retraining that they are funding.
So what is so special about the transmission then if you agree others use and have used it for many years ?...
And I said two stoke engine, face it, you are totally clueless.
I'll say it again, you mean a refined two stroke engine ?....
