WLTC mode fuel economy 28.0 km/L! Through a simple summary of the system to achieve low price.
In this part of the improvement, a new hybrid power system "e-SMART hybrid" model developed by Dafa has been added, which has also made a great leap in terms of fuel consumption and environmental performance.
The E-SMART hybrid is a series of hybrids that use the newly developed 1.2Ritter non-turbine engine for power generation and 100% motor drive. The utility model has the advantages of simple structure, compact structure, resistance to low and medium speed, and is good at street use. The "smart pedal" (S-PDL) can also control the speed of the car only through the accelerator pedal during deceleration, which is designed to reduce the frequency of pedal stamping in cities and downhill. The fuel consumption of the catalogue is marked as 28.0 km/L [fuel consumption in WLTC mode].
In addition to the simple system, basic components such as lithium-ion batteries and motors are shared with Toyota hybrids, achieving low cost. The "hybrid G" class is 2.163,000 yen, and the price is also very low in Toyota's hybrid cars. The E-SMART hybrid is set to 2WD (FF) only.
