SPORT HYBRID I-MMD
This Accord with SPorT HYBrID i-MMD uses both an electric motor and a gasoline
engine. A High
voltage battery powers the electric motor. The High voltage battery
is recharged by an engine-driven generator and regenerative braking.
i-MMD automatically manages the engine and motor, switching between them or
blending them as appropriate. Under certain circumstances, you can selec\
t
ev
mode (driving on electricity only) by pressing the
ev button (see page 104).
In addition to the High
voltage battery, this vehicle includes a standard 12-volt
battery to power the airbags, the interior and exterior lights, and othe\
r 12-volt systems.
Y

our driving style heavily impacts fuel efficiency and driving range. S\
pirited
acceleration, high-speed driving, or heavy climate-control use can quick\
ly reduce
the High
voltage battery’s charge. That can trigger the system to switch to the
gasoline-powered engine.
