All-new Honda Jazz inspired by Formula One hybrid expertise

摘要

When the all-new Jazz is launched later this year, it will 'drive advanced Honda hybrid innovation' from the race track to the road by using knowledge from the brand's Formula One Hybrid Power Unit (PU) programme to improve the energy efficiency of its e:HEV hybrid system. The latest Honda Formula 1 Hybrid PU - named RA620H - uses a 1,600cc six-cylinder internal combustion engine, combined with an Energy Recovery System that recycles energy produced by the brakes and exhaust gases to generate extra power for acceleration and to reduce turbo lag.
