Honda Acorrd Hybrid CR6 2014

[Spyder79]

The Honda Accord Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid have been released in Japan. The Accord Hybrid can return a quoted fuel economy of 30 km per litre, courtesy of the Sport Hybrid i-MMD (intelligent Multi-Mode Drive) powertrain, which features Earth Dreams tech.

 

The Sport Hybrid i-MMD system involves a 137 hp 2.0 litre i-VTEC four-cylinder Atkinson-cycle engine, an electric CVT enclosing two motors (a 166 hp one for traction and a 141 hp one for generation), and a lithium-ion battery.

 

Drive switches automatically between electricity only, internal combustion engine only or a combination of both, depending on driving style. Braking is regenerative, too.

 

The Accord Plug-in Hybrid is based on the Accord Hybrid, but delivers a quoted 70.4 km per litre thanks to a system that makes the car run on EV mode more of the time.

 

It can be charged from a household wall socket, and will be available for lease to corporations and government agencies. Fully charged, the Plug-in Hybrid can travel up to 37.6 km on electric power alone.

 

 

A Japanese review of the Hybrid

[ATTB]

Honda is a good car but the looks are dissapointing. Over priced too.

[Soya]

did sssssssssssangyong buy over honda?

 

[Vinyl]

Their recent models have been disappointing in every way but this can be seen as a small development towards catching up with the front-runners.

 

They should re-look into their styling too.

[Cluboxed]

yes...they should get back their sporty styling....

Lol, no wonder their car design is getting worst. Designed by Ssangyong designer!

Well, seems Honda lack the sporty accents for this Hybrid version

[Davidklt]

This means they are not coming out with a JDM model this time. This platform used to be in the Inspire line up in the Japan domestic market.
