TX NRG Posted December 8, 2013 at 04:57 PM Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 at 04:57 PM The “full” or conventional HEV version of the Fusion has 76 power cells wired in series for the big battery, rated at 1.4 kWh. The plug-in Energi has 84 of the power cells in series, rated at 7.6 kWh. The Energi uses 6.5 kWh for EV range and allows a residual of 1.1 kWh for HEV operation. ctwomey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctwomey Posted December 8, 2013 at 11:12 PM Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 at 11:12 PM Ahh, makes sense now. Thanks, TX NRG and Russael. (And a couple of times I've actually seen it regenerate the hybrid battery back to full, then start adding a bit to the "energi" portion of the battery, showing a few miles (at most) up from zero, as you suggest Russael. Sadly, i have 800 foot hill in the middle of my short r/t commute. On the way home I seem to regularly deplete the energi/EV portion of the battery, kick on the gas engine for a short last burst up the hill, and then, after stop and go down the hill, arrive home with a few miles in the EV battery. This will keep me from achieving TX NRG level ave MPG. :-) ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
