Haha thanks have had a million comments! I’ll know for next time! 💪🏽

Is calling "motor" an electric generator correct? Technically it works as a generator and never as a motor.

@@stefanobalistreri8349 what u smoke bro

@@TheGU1T4RFR3AK I don't! But I know the difference between a generator and a motor. A generator converts mechanical energy into electric power, while an electrical motor does exactly the contrary. In this case the electric motor works as a generator in regenerative braking phases while the electric generator never works as a motor. I.e. one internal combustion engine motor, one electric generator and one electric motor. Furthermore please note that the transmission is equipped with differential which obviously has gears!!

@@stefanobalistreri8349 The generator in this system definitely acts as a motor, in some situations. At the very least it acts as a starter for the ICE. It's also probably used to fine tune the RPMs when the clutch is engaging. When the clutch is engaged it might also contribute to the traction, technically, but it won't because there's never need for that to happen (the main motor is surely better suited for that).

Magic seats were long gone from Civics, as soon as they moved away from the classic hatchback boxy body style. While it's true that the battery is there now, it's not strictly related to that reason. Jazz and HRV have magic seats and the battery is somewhere else. Civic needed that space to fit more refined suspensions (which are in fact the true reason for the bump in the boot floor).

Honda have nailed the Hybrid in my opinion 💪🏽

If I hear this one more time 😆 it’s a pinned comment haha

Ah it’s perfect for family dude! Enjoy!

Thanks mate! Enjoy it!!

It’s a great car man! Super tempted to look into one for myself, pratical, good looking and more importantly decent price!

@@TimWilliamsHD I bought one in Gibraltar as I live here and the Sport was £25995 with the Advance being priced at £2k more.

​@@ant647448336 what? 😆 Lucky prices. Here in your neighborhood, Andalucía, the sport version costed me almost 34k€.

@@albertomartin4812 Tenemos mucha suerte para poder comprar los coches directamente de la fabricante. The dealers in Spain have to buy it from the main dealer in Spain, so it gets more expensive. Doesn't help you have high taxes on top 😞

so how is this car? r u happy?

Its still a transmission though right? 😆

@@TimWilliamsHD Not realy, power to the wheels comes only from the electo motor til about 60/70mph no gears in that area (the computer does imitate gears with engine sound, very cool) when u go over 60/70mph it changes to a mechanical gear (6th gear) directly from the petrol engine to the wheels, (it has about 140hp in that gear) here is a video if you wanna know exactly how eCVT works kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h7KFfKipptSyk3k.html

Perfect!

Thanks dude!! Please like and sub! Loads more coming!

Definitely agree and thanks for the compliment dude!

I don’t watch any sport other than F1 ocassionally 😆

You’ll love it dude, I’m liking into a Honda myself as the daily/family workhorse

Nice review, getting my Advance tomorrow, replacement for 8th gen 2.2 Diesel.

Ah I was under the impression it had a cvt transmission .. transmission meaning gearbox?

@@TimWilliamsHD No, there is not a gearbox in this car. Maybe issue an addendum to your video to clarify for viewers?

@@TimWilliamsHD indeed. it works by having electric engines with direct output to the wheels, and when the rpm of the engine is right. (between ~80 and 120km/h) it swaps over to direct engine to wheels connection. below and above that its electric engine

Much appreciated! I have one I use it was left in my other car unfortunately! Will remember for next time!

Exactly right mate!

It’s a great bit of kit for sure! Perfect hybrid!

Thanks Susan! Hope you’re well!

Can see your point definitely!

Thanks dude, you can’t unfortunately

@@TimWilliamsHD You can, it's only on in sports mode, well it is on mine anyway.

Not as far as I know bud

Thanks dude!

Comes with it mate!

Exactly my question lol. Trying to be better in fuel consumption, but government punishes you more

yeah my 1.5 turbo is not far behind in fuel and tax is the same ? bonkers!

@@lionheart1916 lool. I might just go for the FL5 type R are this rate.

Glad you enjoyed it, please sub!

@@TimWilliamsHD Done. 🙂

Thanks dude!

It’s FWD mate

😆 Pinned comment already dude! Join the club!

That’s a shame man, it’s a great car and does the hybrid job really well!

I understand your point, but you should really try it yourself. I own a Corolla TS, and the Civic if a last* as good ! Edit : at least*

From what I know You can turn the sound off. I'm waiting for mine.

@@kwapin7 good to know, I hate gimmicks!

​​@@JoVERICAIN exactly. I tried it and absolutely didn't mind that sound, everything else in the car was there to seduce me. I actually even think it's kind of cool now. 😆

Can confirm that is drives nice like his wife.
