dunno.. depend on how honda they program the ecu and hybrid response..
eveyrthing is automated - no button to push EV mode like toyota system
it has to take into account the need for power and what's the battery state - if u floor the accelerator (tekan berdiri) everything will kick in at once (still driven by motor alone if from 0km/h). engine also high rpm so then generator can churn out more juice.

but one thing we know is engine drive (city and civic) only able kick in at high speed ~ should be >70-80kmh. since it only has a high lock up clutch.
but whether direct-engine or motor-assist should be depend on load. cruising will almost certain be alternating modes depend on battery state, and load variation such as uphill downhill.

crv is one gen later. have both low (for towing load) and high lock up clutch.

this is just simplification of the working for layman. the actual working of course will be more complicated. but in general, the hybrid system will try to maintain optimum engine rpm as much as possible, i.e this during slow speed, excess rpm it use to charge the battery. during high speed if battery is sufficient, it may just use to electric motor as supplement so the engine rpm maintains at the efficient range. only during rare case where the battery almost depletes and at very high load that it will fully use the engine 100% to drive the wheel.

Lenjan 110 120 is not that ‘fast’ la, at least faiz hes honest la unlike the aircincau, terpaling ev

User problem. If drive 60kmh all the way sure can reach la

Battery still new, need “running-in” period to get to opti

nah it's less of a concern from the car, the cost from the car is minimal compared to infrastructure cost and restriction
other countries can do it because their infrastructure have plenty of buffer for future upgrade
however malaysia's tnb isn't the same, our buffer is minimal and it's seen as wastage
you just can't simply install ev chargers in highway / petrol station without upgrading the infrastructure

ice also never efficient at 110-120km/h, it's most efficient at 80-90km/h unless engine too big. Though ice is definitely better for highways simply because of big range

Guys sorry to say ev is not meant for highway la

It’s original purpose is to replace city car and reduce city pollution


120kmh will deplete its battery very fast and 120kmh is not lenjan. Kepala bapak kau lenjan in ev. Lenjan is u redline your rpm meter mana ada redline on ev hahahaha


Deswai ice will be faster to destination because 200kmh no problem but ev 200kmh ur battery half everything ya

110/120 is lenjan?

Kek

Many here confuse

ehev at high speed eg 120km/h lenjan will run engine+battery charging mode. The engine runs the wheels and at same time charges the battery. Like some said very very rarely the engine direct to the wheels without charging the battery, even if u full pedal to metal, it will be battery + motor to wheel.

we also hybird owners,
u go hiway drive brapa?

True many of friend say panic when driving EV to balik kg

Tesla has the best efficiency in class.

Tesla long range models can easily make it to Penang.

City driving more than sufficient.

Outstation surely insufficient unless willing to charge midway or overnight.

IMO, EV only good for short trips. ICE very inefficient unless hybrid.

In life, everyone will need the following.

EV for city driving including highways or grocery getter.

Hybrid for long distance like across 1 state or sales trips.

ICE for really long distance like across 2-3 states or another country like TH or SG.

Mmg la.
Bigger battery.
But many Tesla owners don't speed above 120kmh on highways.

Yg ada main dgn Kereta Tamiya da tahu high speed mmg makan batteri!

Not everyone wears an engineers brain when driving ev.
So many things need to consider. Menyusahkan betul

Yes Tesla effiency is pretty good. There are some users reported the standard range also can make it PG-KL with 20% left cruising in 110kmh

Can go to Penang Kopitiam

Buy la with high capacity battery over 100kwh punya ...Denza kan ada ... adui ini homework...

Same same la ....after a long distance both also need to refuel .... EV or ICE ..
