In fact, as early as the Tokyo Motor Show in the 1970s, Toyota showed this technology to the whole world. After more than 20 years, the Prius was finally released, and the previous concept was put into mass production. It has long been said that there are only two kinds of hybrids in the world, one is Toyota hybrid and the other is other hybrids. Because Toyota's research and development time is relatively early, it has mastered many patents, which makes it difficult for many car companies to move forward. Honda's hybrid technology was only developed in the 1990s. It was under the pressure of Toyota that Honda woke up, understood the future trend and direction, and quickly set up a project department to study hybrid technology.
The main difference between Honda and Toyota's hybrid power system is that the driving logic of Toyota's hybrid power system is a set, and its core component is an ECV gearbox, which is mainly driven by a gas turbine and an electric motor, and then the motor and engine power are matched through gear transmission, thus achieving the purpose of fuel saving. Then, in order to overtake in the hybrid field, Honda introduced the immd hybrid system from its own advantages, directly bypassing the planetary gears, using electric drive technology, equipped with two motors, one for generating electricity and one for driving. The biggest advantage is that the intermediate conversion process is less, the energy consumption is low, and the power can be taken into account while reducing fuel consumption, so this is the feeling of many car owners.
Toyota hybrid cars are comfortable and fuel-efficient, but the power is average, and Honda hybrid cars are more abundant. Mainly because their driving logic is different. After Toyota and Honda launched hybrid cars, Nissan was unwilling to lag behind. In 20 16, 12 temporarily released its own hybrid system. There was no preferential policy within one month of listing, and it won more than 20,000 orders. It beat the Prius in two months, ranking first in the Japanese car sales list. Nissan's hybrid system adopts series hybrid, and the 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine only serves as a generator and does not drive tires. The tire is driven by an electric motor. In short, this is a pure electric vehicle that can't be charged but has its own generator. The acceleration and mute effects are good, but the disadvantage is that it is not very fuel-efficient.
The general hybrid system of oil and electricity is the technology from Toyota, which is similar to TS in structure, but different in some details. Ford's hybrid technology is also authorized by Toyota, and the structure is basically the same. At the north american auto show in 2005, Ford released the Mondeo hybrid version, which consists of a 2.0-liter engine and a 92-kilowatt motor. This hybrid car also won the title of 20 10 best model in North America. In general, Toyota's hybrid technology is undoubtedly the strongest. After all, I started early and invested a lot of energy. However, Honda and Nissan can strike first. In the face of numerous obstacles and numerous Toyota patents, they have developed their own hybrid technology by a detour, and they have performed well and are also very powerful.
This also shows that in the automobile industry, if you make up your mind to develop and constantly update your own technology, you can accomplish technological transcendence. For example, BYD in China is committed to plug-in hybrid power and has achieved good results, even selling new energy vehicles abroad. Although many other car companies are also studying hybrid systems, most of them are based on Toyota's technology, and fewer models are introduced. I believe that with the promotion of policies, there will be continuous development and progress in the future.
