What We Know So Far
The Honda City e:HEV is driven by the same 1.5-litre, four-cylinder normally aspirated petrol engine as the conventional sedan, but it’s aided by an electric motor powered by a lithium-ion battery pack incorporated in the trunk. The system produces a total power output of 124 bhp, with a peak torque of 253 Nm, of which the petrol engine generates 127 Nm. Of course, the hybrid technology has improved the City e:total HEV’s fuel economy, which has increased by roughly 40% to a reported 26.5 kmpl. And this is despite a 110-kilogram weight gain.
The Honda City e:HEV also has three driving modes: EV, hybrid, and petrol, which are selected through a rotary knob. In EV mode, the car operates entirely on electric power when the throttle is gently applied. (alprazolam) At all four corners, the Honda City e:HEV gets new disc brakes.
Design And Features
In terms of design, the automobile is similar to the normal car, and the inside is likewise unchanged.
