@mattkroening7964 3 месяца назад

Pro tip from somebody who owns a 2019 insight and knows way too much about the IMMD hybrid system: in order to get the most out of sport, you need to drive it around for a little while. This is because, in sport mode, the car will change it's targeted battery charge level to a higher state. This results in a more immediate torque delivery once the battery is at its higher state of charge! I actually use sport mode in my Insight a lot on road trips, not only for passing power, but it actually reduces engine drone when going up hills or passing other people. Drone might not be as much of an issue on this car given that the engine's a 2 l instead of a 1.5 l, but now you know!

@abdulgill5013 3 месяца назад

Yeah, I drive a 2019 insight too and hate the screaming noise it gives when flooring it on regular mode just for it to barely start moving. But I didn’t know that putting it to sport mode would allow the battery to charge more and gain more torque, thanks for letting me know.

@DeadlyCatcher 3 месяца назад

@@abdulgill5013 I own a 2020 Insight EX. You will immediately notice the difference. Sports mode changes the throttle sensitivity and responds way quicker than in normal mode. I always use it during merging on highways. And as mentioned before, be sure to wait and let the battery charge first.

@terrancecloverfield6791 3 месяца назад

Good tips there. The nuances between Toyota and Honda is the power delivery, where Toyota would rather fire up its gas engine to meet power needs, leading to mechanical shifting and droning because it the HV battery is mostly there for low-end torque needs to achieve its efficiency. Would you know if your battery health is measurable on the Insight? If setting higher SoC leads to shorter battery life span before a replacement is needed, then maybe it's not a good idea to leverage sport mode so much for Honda.

@mattkroening7964 3 месяца назад

What I love about this and the Toyota system is that they address the weak link in reliability with the lack of a traditional transmission. The more electronic everything is, and less mechanical, the more reliable things will be. I need the size of an accord or Camry but these are very nice cars

@terrancecloverfield6791 3 месяца назад

Hmm...I'm not sold on this yet. Electronics sounds nice until your battery is dead, and you can't disengage the electronic brakes and gears and thereby more reliant on the powers that are, to get your out of a sticky situation. But credit where due, where electric motors are inherently simpler designs and has potential to be more consumer friendly for repair.

@mholmes9262 2 месяца назад

Several years ago we had a 2014 Accord Hybrid Touring that we really liked in most ways. Decent power, great fuel economy, comfortable and quiet ride and enough space for a road trip (trunk space wasn't huge though). Biggest gripe was the droning of the "It isn't a CVT" transmission and engine that seemed to just rev at random times and made it feel like a CVT with a mind of its own. We kept if a few years and sold it because I wanted something with more power (replaced with a 2018 Infiniti Q50RS that I initially really liked but the honeymoon wore off quickly, sold that in 2022 for a '22 Tesla M3P that the wife and I both love), but I have actually missed it on occasion, it was that nice to be in. I have my gripes with Honda (cheap rubber compounds that disintegrate in the sun, paper thin sheet metal, rust, etc) but I get why people love them. They drive superbly and excel at being a fun to drive companion for errands, road trips, etc. This new Civic addresses the biggest issue by giving the "it's not a CVT" transmission programmed steps to mimic a regular auto, and the added power enhances the experience. It seems to be right in the sweet spot. Just beware that if you leave it outside, you can expect all the rubber bits to crack and turn into goo, and you'll have door dings every time someone breathes too hard on it.

Regen braking is often misunderstood. The brake pedal implements "blended braking," where it applies as much regen as the system deems safe - remember, it works only thru the front wheels - and adds front and rear friction braking for the rest. If you are gentile one the pedal, you can get almost as much from the pedal as you get from the paddles. The paddle setting is persistent in Sport mode if you want near one-pedal driving, or if you hold the paddle back for a second or so. You can also configure it in "individual" mode on the Touring.

WRT the regenerative braking control, I agree with you; the system should not simply cancel itself whenever one engages the brake pedal. Finally, WRT the 2.0 litre naturally aspirated engine installed in this car, it has been used for the past two years in Civics sold in Europe (and also the Accord). The lower weight of the Civic really makes this shine.

Don’t be fooled by Honda’s claimed power figure. It’s a theoretical combination of ICE + EM, but in reality the engine can only lend it’s max power directly the wheels at top speed (because it can only ever drive the wheels at 1:1). In reality it’s 181hp, but that’s 181 ELECTRIC hp, so it responds to accelerator inputs immediately (and doesn’t lose time shifting) punching well above its rating at real world legal driving speeds.

@WarpedTrekker 3 месяца назад

Don't tell me in sport mode they are piping thru fake engine noise into the cabin speakers? Is that true as you mentioned? Not buying a car with fake noise piped thru speakers. I'm skeptical on how quiet it is. My 2014 Accord Coupe is loud on roads. Honda is notorious for not using sound dampening and dynamat style noise reduction. They refuse to add enough dampening to be quiet. I'll have to test drive but I'm waiting for the hatchback. Quietest car I've test drove is the new highland tesla 3 which also has a better audio system.

The Integra has a lot of luxury features. A luxury sporty look and the brand name and speakers better

Looking forward to the day a manufacturer creates a hybrid system for mass production that produces 300 hp/tq

Thanks for that interesting video. What about the seats ? Comfortable ? I had a 2016 Civic and it was horrible. Hard as rock. I sold it for that reason. Thanks

Because there is no transition when engine fires up since it is NOT EVN CONECTED to he wheels... This car runs on just electric motor... gasoline motor just creates elecricyty.

It makes me wonder what's going to happen to the Integra.

I was really looking forward to this car and it seems like they did pretty good. But there is some odd cost cutting, in Canada they get standard rear vents and optional rear heated seats, we can’t get either in the U.S. There is also no adjustable lumbar support in any trim, this car is great but at ~$33k it should have some of these things.

Thank you for this preliminary first drive impression video. It seems to be sn awesone update and upgrade, replacing the oroblematic 1.5L turbo with even more power. Not I wasnt a Sport Touring Hybrid Hatchback in Boost Blue Pearl. But I wish Honda would do this on a Sport Touring Hybrid HR-V. I originallybwent from wanting the Sport Hatchback to the HR-V Sport, but now want one of these, pf course, unless the cone out eithbthis in the HR-V. But I imagine if they plan to do that, ut probably won't be available until one more year as a 2026 model.
