read my story my system the hpg system makes this hybrid look silly...wwwhpgsystemcom the only difference is my system is for used cars and turns a 1967 chevy into a hybrid saving you $30,000 from buying a hybrid read my story and support my cause i am on you tube under hpg project i am going worldwide...thank you
I wonder when Honda will offer a Plug In Hybrid. Toyota now has the production version of the Full Hybrid Plug In Prius. It would be nice if Honda improved on the Original 2000 to 2006 First Generation Honda Insight. Great Look and miles per gallon. And use SuperCapacitors or UltraCapacitors as Honda originally had plan.
@giolock this is a mild hybrid system. Honda is the only car manufacture to make mild hybrid systems meaning although hybrid the electric component never actually sends power solely to the wheels; this technology is used by the Honda insight and crz. The Prius could go about a mile on full electric and the Chevy volt 40 miles on full electric then about 400 miles running a gas engine that is a generator to the elctric system charging the batteries, Prius and the volt are full hybrids.
What happens when you downshift? Is the engine slowing the car or the electric motor/generator? When I downshift, the tach shows the engine revs are up and declining. The engine doesn't drop to less than 1,000 RPMs like it doesn when it is idling or moving below 10 or so mph.
@meowmmmmm so have i, i still own one, bought brand new in 06 with no miles and now has 60K yes i have heard they don't always work but after becoming a M-B Tech im very tedious with service done on my moms Civic. The only big problem i have had has been the motor mounts breaking all the time.
I dont like this hybrid system. All the other makers disconnect the gas engine from the electric motor. This whole "closed valves" crap seems stupid. The others disconnect and use a second smaller motor to charge and adjust the CVT. Honda did away with the second motor and all the clutches. Its more simple but cheesy. If you read up on hybrids, the Chevy Volt seems to be the way to go. It seems to have all the good thing from all the makers.
@heatherandpaul2 then why does GM have so many problems? The current system they are using in the Volt is based under Toyota's Hybrid Synergy drive. the Nissan Altima uses the same system. Honda did go in a simpler route but its still very efficient.
@heatherandpaul2 sorry they are the same. yes minor differences but still BASED on the same system. The only thing the GM has differently is the programming
@01rollas I can't believe I'm arguing with you. I dont even like Hibrids. However, I like cars and I hate stupidity. Honda's hybrids have one electric motor prmanently coupled to the gas engine. The engine shuts off, BUT keeps turning by the electric motor. Toyota Uses two electric motors and one gas engine and a planetary transmission. The smaller motor turns forward or bacwards at certain speeds to control the ration in the "CVT". I can run in EV mode, but it NEEDS the gas engine, Continued..
@01rollas Continued. Other hybrids use variations of the above. Now, Chevy Uses one large electric motor with NO tranmission or even a CVT. The Motor does it all all the way to top speed. When the battery depletes and enters the buffer zone. The gas engine turns andother small motor/generator to keep the car going. At full charge and at high speeds the small motor couples to that large motor. When this happens they are all linked (and can be decoupled) via planetay gear and clutches...
@heatherandpaul2 Some electric motors use electric turbo cargher which is a genarator truned the electric motor to incrase output efecienty and rpm touqe of the motor thouw regulating pulley gear ratio of the genrater carger current flow that it sends to the motor or battery can be quite difficult to control. I can understand your piont that cvt have some redunace's and draw backs thow as cvt technolgy's improve gear ratio timeing and acelration lag woulhd become less of an issue.
@01rollas The change in the clutches and planatary gear acts as a second higher gear with two motors moving the car under electric power only. Now, what about at high speed with power depleted? All three systems couple. The large electric motor, the small one, and the gas engine move the car. The chevy can not use the gas engine alone. Honda can. Honda is only assisted by the small motor. Read the article in Car and Driver, it goes into great detail. THEY ARE VERY DIFFERENT. STUPID FUCKER.
@01rollas Nope, I just hate morons. The funny thing is that I hate electric cars and I hate hybrids. They are a rip off. However, they are cars and they are interesting. Im a car guy, so I show respect for technology like this. I just realy realy realy hate morons. You are a total moron. Read and study on things you want ot talk about. Good luck in life moron.
How long or how far can the car go during low speed cruising? since it only run on motor (battery capacity). Prius would go for about 1 km in EV (Electric Vehicle) mode. Thanks
Personally I find something confusing, the valves stay CLOSED??? That would cause great losses in power because the pistons are tying to suck a void on downstroke and then compress air with no place to go on the upstroke, wouldnt it??? Seems like one valve (exh???) should stay closed and one open to allow the air in the chamber to come and go easily. Maybe I donr understand something. Seems like it would act like a "Jake Brake" to me.
I found it odd too but when it compresses air then that compressed air helps push it down again. so it's not a complete loss. and I'd guess it closes when the piston is up so it's cycling a near vacuum so it loses less to compression heat but I don't quite believe it's "very efficient". I imagine the combustion engine is quite hard to spin so it will be quite wasteful.
they should just make a series hybrid already. not this parallel crap
No air has to be compressed during upstroke, because, as you say, there's void on the downstroke, so the void would actually assist in bringing the piston back up.
But IMO it would be more energy efficient to use the combustion engine for charging only. It could be highly optimized to run quietly on low power but for as long as needed and at only one fixed rpm, for which it is optimized, and it could be quite small.
love the video really good

Is there a book explaining everything
with graphics and detail explanation
of how hybrid car works???
just like this excellent video???
