    Hybrid cars work best when you commute from out side a city on a motorway.
    so the battery is charged on the way and electric is used in slow moving start stop city traffic.

    Is it possible to have the motor assisting the engine building torque at low rev by having it connected to a pulley on the engine and then having it disconnected when desired ? would that snap the belt or chain ?
    Anyway I love the accent.

    • @electrictroy2010
      @electrictroy2010 Před 10 lety

      Honda's new design does exactly that, but it doesn't use a pulley. It uses a clutch to mechanically connect & disconnect the engine to the motor (which is tied to the wheels). It does this process anytime over 44 miles/hour

      @GbMuthu Před 6 lety

      Something like dual clutch. Only here 1 side works on the ICE & the other works on the electric motor. What i still don't understand is y isn't Honda able to design a comprehensive hybrid powerplant like Toyota has?! Toyota has completely replaced the gearbox with electrical motors to deal with the torque challenged regions of the ICE. Honda still seems to need some form of a gearbox & clutch to get the job done.

    I noticed the civic motor has 18 coils in its motor, the accord has 24 coils whats differance the in power?

    • @TheAutoChannel
      @TheAutoChannel  Před 6 lety +2

      Six coils.
      Sorry, I couldn't help it.
      More coils enhances ignition performance, which relates to lower emissions, better fuel consumption, and higher
      ignition voltage. A Honda Accord engine is typically larger than a Honda Civic engine, and it produces greater horse power. The Accord engine while being more powerful may not have as good fuel economy.

    it's incredible that in the 21st century we still behind technological advancement - and with that we continue the destruction of what is left from our environment throughout poor experimental engineering
    as we just witnessed from this comercial, these smarts cars are not too smart
    first of all, a car computer should be able to differentiate a sudden stop from a normal stop to prioritize fuel consumption according to the driver's habits before the car came to a stop, or while operating, then that could be considered progress at least in that area
    another isue to consider is fuel; why cars still need fuel to operate? these crazy designs are made to improve the wealth of these people that mass produce these comercial vehicles but do not benefit the end consumer after all

    • @zaro33
      @zaro33 Před 6 lety +3

      Joshua Dep there is no starter motor in a hybrid from my understanding. There is an electric motor that also works for regeneration. From my understanding, when the gas engine is going to start, the electric engine starts first with battery power which then when has engine is needed the electric engine already did the work of the starter motor.

    • @85bbenjaminfan
      @85bbenjaminfan Před 5 lety +3

      @@zaro33 I can verify this, since I now own a 2003 Honda Civic Hybrid. When I start my car, there is no starter whine, which tells me that it is indeed the electric motor that starts the engine. Same when it shuts off at stoplights, which it does when I put my car in neutral and coast (the transmission is a 5 speed manual, I've noticed that putting it in neutral activates this feature.) So you are correct in your statement

    You have your facts all wrong. It's not "parallel" assistance, it's "serial", and it can't run on electric motor alone unless it's coasting or slowing down. The Prius is the one that has parallel assistance and can run on electric alone.
