When brake-torqued it programs the system to be as fast as possible so it doesn't fake-shift. Otherwise when simply stomping down the pedal it'll add the fake shifts to sound more "natural". Nissan and Subaru do something similar with their CVTs.

@aravindradhakrishna8660 Жыл бұрын

Unfortunately, the Civic e:Hev doesn't run with engine + electric motor applying power to the road, it's only one or the other. So even if it had the L15B 1.5 turbo with 201hp as in the Accord, it won't be as quick as the 330e to 200 km/h. But it'll definitely be more adept at high speeds compared to the current 2.0 NA Atkinson setup, probably not as economical though.

@@jaredscott4829 Don't get me wrong, it's a fantastic car but it is dangerously slow. There is a notorious onramp near my house with traffic control lights. When I rented one to try (before I buy), I had to merge into traffic at 90kph because it couldn't reach 110. 13s 0-100 is scary. It was actually the reason why I bought a Cerato GT instead of the Corolla, and the ZR Corolla Hybrid was cheaper at the time. The Corolla Cross managed to get the 2L Hybrid drivetrain I wanted in the Corolla, and the economy figures would only be off by at most 0.5-1L/100.

The ramp from light to merge is 180-220m. The car accelerates from 0-110 in a distance that exceeds that at wide open throttle. I had another Corolla hybrid in the US a few weeks ago, the economy figures were almost identical to the rental I had here. About 0.1-0.4L/100 difference. By the economy thing, I meant I would compromise economy for a more driveable car. As for acceleration I've seen other cars like the Mitsubishi mirage also fail to merge at speed on some onramps and I think a Pajero or landcruiser? It's not just the Corolla Hybrid.

@michaelcampbell4990 11 ай бұрын

Gives a good indication of the performance across a wide range of speed. In the real world, drivers care about 0-30 kmh, and maybe 60-100. Some cars will have a very fast launch but struggle at higher speeds, some launch slow but keep pulling. 0-100 can give a fair indication of both in a video like this where you can see the speedo move.

@@michaelcampbell4990 I think intermediate acceleration figures are a far better indication for allround performance. For example, diesel engines never perform well 0-100 because that is not a diesel's strength. But in intermediate acceleration, turbo diesel engines shine. No need to downshift...you just floor the accelerator. I think the 0-100 performance figure is getting too much weight in the overall decision making. Just like the quarter mile, another useless figure unless you want to use your car for drag races

@michaelcampbell4990 10 ай бұрын

@@mathisnotforthefaintofheart idk about that, my previous car was a diesel and it had an excellent 0-100 time for it's power and weight. But the time itself isn't that useful, you need a video of it so you can see how the car really accelerates. I.e. EVs always get great 0-100 times because they launch so hard, but then the 80-120 kmh time is worse than comparable petrol cars.
