Can a Honda Hybrid Still Run If the Battery Fails?
1 Answers
Honda hybrid vehicles cannot run if the battery is damaged. Below is an introduction to the relevant details: 1. Composition: The system consists of an engine, a starter motor, a drive motor, a set of planetary gears, and a power distribution control unit. 2. Starting Principle: When the car is stopped or moving at low speeds, it relies entirely on the electric motor for propulsion, with the engine inactive. Therefore, if the battery fails, the car cannot start. 3. Range Extender Mode: At low speeds, the Honda hybrid operates in range extender mode, where propulsion is entirely dependent on the electric motor. The engine only runs at an optimal speed to charge the battery. Thus, if the battery is damaged, the vehicle cannot start either.
