Motor Power: 109 PS | Combined Torque: 253 Nm
The Honda City e:HEV is a masterclass in efficiency, utilizing an Atkinson Cycle 1.5L i-VTEC engine specifically optimized for electricity generation rather than direct drive. In "EV Drive Mode," the car is propelled solely by a high-torque electric motor, delivering a massive 253 Nm of torque instantly from 0 rpm. It achieves a 0-100 km/h sprint in just 9.9 seconds. Its "Hybrid Drive Mode" allows the engine to act as a generator, feeding the motor, while "Engine Drive Mode" uses a unique lock-up clutch to connect the engine directly to the wheels only at high cruising speeds where it is most efficient.
