What does the Elysian EV mode mean?
2 Answers
Elysian EV refers to the electric mode. When this mode is activated, the vehicle is driven by the generator, which is suitable for use in traffic congestion. Below are the specific details about the Elysian: 1. Powertrain: The Elysian is an MPV under Dongfeng Honda, equipped with a 2.0L L4 naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 146 HP and a maximum torque of 175 Nm, paired with a CVT transmission. 2. Body dimensions: The Elysian measures 4950mm in length, 1842mm in width, and 1711mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2900mm. It has a top speed of 160 km/h and a fuel tank capacity of 50L.
I often use the EV mode in the Elysion and find it very practical. It represents pure electric driving, meaning that after pressing the button, the car runs entirely on electricity, and the engine completely stops working. It's especially suitable for driving slowly on city streets or during traffic jams. After activation, the car becomes extremely quiet, with significantly reduced noise, and fuel consumption drops noticeably. I remember the last time I used EV mode for a short trip in the city; the odometer showed hardly any fuel consumption, making it both cost-effective and convenient. However, it's important to pay attention to the battery charge status. If the battery isn't fully charged or is low on power, the EV mode might not activate, and you'll need to wait until the system is ready to use it. Using this mode frequently during daily commutes not only saves fuel but also reduces emissions, making it quite eco-friendly. Honda's design of this feature is truly thoughtful.
