What is the operating principle of the Camry Hybrid?
1 Answers
The Camry Hybrid operates on a series-parallel hybrid system, which is one of the various transmission systems in hybrid vehicles. In the series-parallel power coupling mechanism, the motor MG1 and the engine need to undergo speed coupling through a planetary gear set. After speed coupling, torque coupling is also required with motor MG1. Through speed synthesis, motor MG2 achieves speed regulation of the engine, allowing the engine speed to be independent of the vehicle speed, thereby realizing the ECVT function. The Camry is equipped with a 2.5L engine, with a maximum power output at 5,700 rpm. It adopts a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, with a MacPherson strut front suspension and an E-type multi-link rear suspension.
