@apn425 жыл бұрын
@@Ytytfytfujbyddutrxrt The Honda does not use a planetary gear to combine the power from the ICE and electric engine. It is a true serial hybrid where the Toyota e-CVT is more of a parallel hybrid setup. Honda has apparently been able to obtain the same or better fuel efficiency with a considerable simpler setup. Also the Honda engineers have dimensioned the electric generator and motor much stronger than Toyota which should avoid the revving engine whine effect that Toyota hybrids are known for when driving fast. Also the direct drive lockup is a great way of obtaining best fuel efficiency when cruising on the high-way.

I love that Honda hybrid setup, the "direct drive nature" of it makes it so much more responsive than anything from Toyota. But one thing I would really love to see is that drive train strapped into a fit or an s660 (this one would need some serious modding). with both of those cars get their driving feeling from directness and this power train could supply that with an bunch of extra torque (what makes cars like that feel fast) with out adding a ton of displacement (which can be an issue in some countries). Plus it might allow Honda to give a bloody nose to the Fiesta ST or the Audi TT, and who doesn't want to see that?

I have one of these 2017 Accord Hybrid Touring, I have had non stop issues for the last year and a half. My hybrid system is not working at highway speeds. I am getting 28 miles per gallon on the highway and my dealership can't find the problem. Also I was asked to to change my transmission fluid at 30,000 miles. If the car does not have a transmission then why did they try to sell me the service. I didn't do it because I want the MPG issue addressed first but is there a transmission and does it require fluid change? I can't find anything in the owners guide.

That last one and those asshats that sit in the middle of an intersection until the light turns red so they can make a left are the two more annoying things that I have to deal with when driving in larger density areas. I understand that people have things to do and places to be, but sitting in the middle of an intersection just to save maybe 45 seconds makes me want to plow into them at full throttle just that little bit more. It's just as bad as those people who stop with their cars covering the cross walk just so they can be that much farther forward.
