How Does the Accord Hybrid Work?

[ElizabethRose]

The working principle of the Accord Hybrid is as follows: 1. The hybrid version of the Accord is essentially a 'gasoline-powered electric car' because, in most scenarios, it uses an electric motor to drive the wheels. The feel of the accelerator pedal is almost identical to that of an electric vehicle. 2. The electricity is primarily supplied by a combination of a generator and a gasoline engine. This gasoline engine mostly acts as a generator. Only when the vehicle's speed exceeds 70 km/h and the load is minimal does the gasoline engine engage the wheels via a clutch, driving them directly and temporarily pausing the use of the electric motor. 3. A minimal load generally refers to a steady cruising state. During rapid acceleration or uphill driving, when the load increases, the system reverts to using the electric motor to power the car. 4. Under normal conditions, the gasoline engine and generator charge the electric motor, which then drives the vehicle. When the car reaches its 'optimal state,' the gasoline engine starts operating. Additionally, the power battery is another significant source of electricity, with its charge replenished through energy recovery.
