NISSAN ALTIMA HYBRID

Nissan Altima Hybrid
The Nissan Altima Sedan Hybrid is a greener alternative to the standard Altima Sedan. It's Nissan's first gas/electric hybrid and uses technology that was first used by Toyota. Driving at lower speeds, the car is powered by an electric motor, but when the car speeds up, a four-cylinder 158 horsepower gas engine takes over. The CVT (continuously variable transmission) adds to the car's fuel economy and is available with a slightly different programming than the other Nissan models with CVT. Powered by a 158 horsepower 2.5 liter four-cylinder and a 40 horsepower electric motor, the Altima Hybrid offers an impressive 35/33 mpg city/highway. When the car come to a stop, the gas engine shuts off and, if the car needs more power, the electric motor can add another 40 horsepower to the gas engine. An electric air-conditioning compressor is used instead of a belt-driven compressor so that the AC stays on when the engine shuts off. The Altima Hybrid comes with electronic stability system, traction control, electronic power steering, and antilock brakes. Also standard is Nissan's Intelligent Key Feature that permits the engine to start as long as the key fob is inside the car. A convenience package adds power windows in the front, a leather wrapped steering wheel, and rear spoiler, among other features. A connection package will get you satellite radio, Bluetooth phone connectivity, and a sound system. A navigation system is optional, and it has the added novelty of display how much work is being done between the electric motor and the gas engine. As of 2008, the Altima hybrid is only available in California, New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, Rhode Island, Maine, and New Jersey.

HONDA ACCORD VARIANTS AND TECHNOLOGIES

HONDA ACCORD SEDAN
The new Honda Accord comes in both saloon and wagon forms, offering a host of engine and transmission options.
Available engines are

2.0-litre and 2.4-litre i-VTEC petrol engines,

2.2-litre i-DTEC diesel engine.

Petrol engine has 5 speed automatic transmission and 6 speed manual transmission.
All the other engines have 6 speed transmission. The new Accord has a sleek new design with sparkling new head lamps and also it is long, wider and sporty than its previous models. Accord also has new safety features. The fuel efficiency is increased in Honda Accord, because the cylinders are shut down according to the use of the vehicle along different roads. All the cylinders are used while driving the car uphill, not in down hill. Traction control, Vehicle Stability Assist and active front head restraints are offered in all models of Accord. The interior of the car is increased since the dimensions are increased by 102mm in Length and 76 mm in Width.

Accord in Canada Sedans LX, EX, EX-L, EX V6, and EX-L V6. Coupes EX, EX-L, EX-L V6, and EX-L V6 6MT.

Latest Technology In Honda Civic Hybrid

Honda Civic hybrid is the hybrid version of Honda Civic Sedan. Continuously variable transmission and Integrated Motor Assist are used in Honda Civic Hybrid version to make it a more fuel efficient Hybrid Sedan.

HONDA CIVIC HYBRID
Honda Civic hybrid version uses the method Power Assist Hybrids.The technology is that the electric motor is mounted between the engine and transmission. It is large electric motor which operates not only when the engine needs to be turned over, but also when the driver changes the driving mode to the gasoline mode and requires extra power. Honda Civic hybrid version also uses Integrated Motor Assist (commonly abbreviated as IMA) It uses an electric motor mounted between the engine and transmission to act as a starter motor, engine balancer, and assist traction motor. The theory behind IMA is to use regenerative braking to recapture some of the energy lost during deceleration, and reuse that energy later on to help accelerate the vehicle. IMA technology has two effects:

1.IMA raises the rate of acceleration, and it lowers the work required of the mechanical engine. The acceleration boost is important as it allows the engine to be scaled down to a smaller but more fuel-efficient variant without rendering the vehicle overly slow or weak. This smaller engine is the primary reason cars equipped with IMA get better highway mileage than their more conventional counterparts.

2.Additionally, vehicles equipped with IMA can shut off their engine when the vehicle stops and use the electric motor to rapidly spin it back up when the driver releases the brake pedal.
