After launched INSPIRE, Eric gentry and the CR-V hybrid version of the model, Dongfeng Honda’s hybrid family built up a formal framework to achieve full coverage SUV and then three cars from the car, MPV. And after that, Dongfeng Honda hybrid family is about to usher in a new member, it is equipped with third-generation i-MMD Dongfeng Honda hybrid system shared domain sharp middot; hybrid (hereinafter referred to as shared domain sharp middot; hybrid ). Today, the state teacher on the first to experience this new car and see exactly how it’s strength.
Dynamic Information ■ – i-MMD third generation hybrid system
field enjoy sharp middot; hybrid mounted 1.5 l i-MMD hybrid system by the Atkinson cycle engine and 1.5 liters double motor composed of a high power, with the EV, and the engine directly connected to hybrid drive three drive modes. Engine maximum power 80 kW, maximum torque of 134 Nm; the maximum power of the driving motor 96 kilowatts, the maximum torque of 267 Nm, maximum power of the integrated system 113 kilowatts.
to develop the third generation i-MMD hybrid system, the engine, the motor, the battery full upgrade, having a smaller, more efficient, more stable features.
SBW electronic touchtone Acura NSX inherited from the shift lever, it is now widely used in hybrid system Honda models, hidden inside the electronic E-CVT CVT . This drive system is provided in addition to optimization of the space platform, the biggest feature is eliminating the conventional power transmission mechanism, reducing the loss of power transfer process, thus making the transmission more efficient.
field enjoy sharp middot; hybrid version of the model of fuel used with the same suspension structure, but due to the increase of the battery pack, it is therefore increased body weight lot. According to the manufacturers personnel, engineers optimized the suspension structure and reduces the height of the spring, in order to enhance the driving comfort of our practical experience in as well.
■ driving experience – with nearly pure quality train
i-MMD read one minute works:
Third-generation hybrid i-MMD There are three driving modes powertrain: EV mode, the hybrid driving mode, the engine direct drive mode, different driving conditions the system will automatically switch the driving mode.
1. EV mode
is in the drive mode, the engine will stop working, driven by a battery inside the wheel of a direct drive motor energy recovery energy is directly converted into electrical energy through the generator is stored in a lithium battery.
2. The hybrid drive mode
In this mode, the engine is operating but not directly drive the wheels, a generator driven by the engine to supplement the battery power, the battery and then the energy to the drive motor drives the wheels.
3. The direct drive mode of the engine
When the vehicle is cruising at high speed, i-MMD direct-drive system will enter engine mode, when the engine through clutch transfers power directly to the wheels, the engine operating conditions is always in the economy, so than traditional fuel vehicles in this mode the power output more efficient.
in the i-MMD hybrid system blessing, sharing domain sharp middot; hybrid low speed driving experience significantly better fuel version of the model, without combustion engine high-frequency noise output and viscous phenomena, power to the quiet and smooth, which is the low torque motor output characteristics in the state. With the rising speed, the engine will automatically intervene, the switching process is not obvious sense of the unexpected.
The three driving modes do not need to operate the driver himself, it is automatically switched depending on the current driving road conditions. In addition it has three drive modes, domain enjoy sharp middot; also provides a hybrid energy (the ECON), Normal (the NORMAL) and motion (SPORT) Three driving modes to choose, by switching the button next to the electronic shift lever SBW push-button.
field enjoy sharp middot; hybrid pointing accuracy good steering wheel, the steering feeling appears calm, while damping delicate, so you can feel a certain sense of driving.
throughout the test drive session so I feel the most is to enjoy the domain sharp middot; hybrid outstanding NVH performance, rumors of a “NVH is not Honda’s strengths” in it I did not find the body. When traveling at low speed range, the engine will not be directly involved in the power output, and the engine does not work under the EV mode, at low speed driving will lose an important source of noise.
■ Appearance – detail element indicates a status symbol
share domain sharp middot; hybrid and fuel in appearance Edition models the difference is relatively small, with some details with the elements to indicate that it is a hybrid model.
front and rear are brand LOGO spend a blue decorative elements, and the front fender on the tailgate or blue hYBRID identifier indicates the identity of a common hybrid models.
shared domain fuel Edition models wide standard 16 inches rim , and we tested this top with shared domain sharp middot; hybrid equipped low-drag 17-inch rims, tires using Ruckus Hallmark ADVAN dB series, a single tire market price of about 500 yuan.
BodySize, enjoy the domain sharp middot; hybrid and Rui Ling faction middot; big advantage of this hybrid in Japan fellow brothers Toyota Corolla, Ralink contrast, and has a wheelbase leapfrog size, able to rear passengers lead to better legroom.
by the right door mirror camera, Honda SENSING safety supersensitization and front camera system composed of a millimeter wave radar, can greatly enhance the driving safety of the driver.
■ interior – science and technology to create a good atmosphere
to enter the car inside, the familiar interior atmosphere blowing, enjoy the domain sharp middot; hybrid version of the model’s interior and fuel to maintain the same high degree of consensus, but enhance the interior configuration is that it’s a highlight.
[123 ] 8-inch central control display, internal equipped with Honda CONNECT 2.0 wisdom guide the Internet, a lot of localization adapted to the Chinese market, the system built high moral map, cool music and the Himalayas and other applications, to meet the daily entertainment needs. In addition, this car phone support Baidu CarLife in terms of the Internet, which is not available in petrol version of the model function.
configuration, this test drive cars equipped with top Honda SENSING super sense of security system, which contains a wealth of safety technology configuration, ACC Active Cruise Control system, CMBSTM collision mitigation brake system, LKAS lane keeping assist systems, RDM lane deviation suppression system, TSR intelligent traffic sign recognition system, I believe that once you have these security configuration, novice drivers on the road no longer afraid of tension.
■ Space – long wheelbase legroom brought leapfrog
reviews the state ■
as the share domain sharp middot; hybrid arrival, Honda east hybrid layout family of products will be further expanded, lowered into the compact-class car in the field, for which Toyota is undoubtedly a warning signal. Return the product point of view, enjoy the domain sharp middot; hybrid in blessing third-generation i-MMD hybrid technology, is indeed a commendable product, it has a more comfortable driving experience, quieter driving environment there are more wide performance space, the three points for the home consumer level is undoubtedly a fatal attraction!
It is reported that the new car will be officially listed on September 20, we believe a reasonable sale price range will be domain Dongfeng Honda enjoy sharp middot; starting off the hybrid.
