What's the 0-60 time in electric mode?

The US model of the Prius doesn't have the electric only mode. However, it can be added. I've ordered the part for it.

I'm pretty much positive it will not be able to make 60 in electric only.

The electric only feature can be turned on and used up to a speed of around 34 mph at which time it will automatically turn off and the car will operate as usual.

Hmm... that'll come in handle for school zones, or for sneaking out of the neighborhood after that 5:00 A.M. walk of shame.

If the electric only kit is only $45.00, you'd think it would be a standard feature in North America. It hardly seems worth the trouble to leave it out.

I got the kit, but I'm not 100% sure it's compatible with my model. I'm going to do some more research before installing it.

Today I installed the audio/video interface. It fools the system into thinking it's got a DVD player. At the moment, the video isn't working though.. I think it's either my iPod or the cable I'm using. The key thing was getting audio so I got my tunes, and I've got that..
