Honda Civic e:HEV 採用「雙馬達」混能系統運作,有別於豐田嗰套以引擎主導嘅技術。Honda Civic e:HEV 喺大部分市區行車情況都係以電動摩打驅動為主,引擎主要係作為發電機為電池充電,開車感覺似電動車咁順滑寧靜。上到高速公路巡航時,Honda Civic e:HEV 嘅引擎先會直接驅動車輪,以達到最佳嘅油耗效益。
The Honda Civic e:HEV operates with a "two-motor" hybrid system, which differs from Toyota's engine-dominant technology. The Honda Civic e:HEV is primarily driven by the electric motor in most city driving conditions, with the petrol engine mainly acting as a generator to charge the battery. This gives the Honda Civic smooth and quiet acceleration. The engine directly drives the wheels only during highway cruising for optimal fuel economy.
