What are the differences between Toyota hybrid and Honda hybrid?

[DelMiranda]

The main differences between Toyota hybrid and Honda hybrid are: 1. The primary distinction between Honda and Toyota hybrid systems lies in their driving logic. Toyota's hybrid system operates on a THS system, primarily driven by a gas turbine and electric motor, then distributing power through planetary gears to match the motor and engine power. 2. Honda's hybrid system utilizes electric drive technology, which minimizes intermediate conversion processes during operation to maximize power output. Compared to Toyota's hybrid model, Honda's hybrid vehicles offer stronger power performance while being more fuel-efficient. 3. The issue with Toyota hybrids is that the Atkinson cycle engine's output is weaker than conventional engines, and the hybrid model's output capacity and capacitance cannot simultaneously support maximum power output from both engines. Therefore, the engine must not only provide power but also compensate for the electric motor's relatively weaker output.
