  5. P O R S C H E CayenneHybrid • Drive wheels: all • Engine: 3.0-liter V6 with electric motor and battery pack • Horsepower: 369 combined net (CG estimate) • Torque: 406 lb-ft peak (CG estimate) • Transmission: 8-speed automatic Hybrids can provide performance while improving corporate fuel economy ratings.

  6. Myth or Reality? Hybrid Cars Have Expensive Technology That is Difficult to Fix • Hybrid cars are not unlike any modern computer-controlled vehicle. Like their conventional gasoline powered counterparts, they require high-end diagnostic equipment which is typically available at the dealerships. • Hybrids cars have long warranties to protect consumers from high costs.

  7. Hybrid Cars Have Limited Battery Pack Life • Hybrid cars are designed so that batteries are never fully charged or discharged. • Manufacturers guarantee batteries for many years; ranging from eight years or 80,000 to 100,000 miles. Source: The Essential Hybrid Car Handbook, by Nick Yost

  8. Hybrid Cars Stall, Stutter and Sputter. • Concern started with a Toyota Prius software problem in 2005, which shut-off vehicles while driving. This has been addressed through a recall. Source: The Essential Hybrid Car Handbook, by Nick Yost

  9. Hybrid Cars Will Not Return Enough Savings in Reduced Fuel Usage to Justify Their Higher Cost. • Hybrid cars are hard to justify solely on fuel savings. They have higher depreciation and higher initial cost. • Federal and state tax write-offs help, but are generally not enough to fully offset the cost. • The amount and type of driving you do can have a great impact on fuel savings.

  10. Hybrid Cars Are Lower Performing • Hybrid cars can safely accelerate and brake. • Some are faster then their gasoline powered counterparts. Source: The Essential Hybrid Car Handbook, by Nick Yost

  11. Hybrid Cars Do Not Get the Fuel Mileage Promised • What cars do get the fuel mileage promised? • Most real-world driving situations yield about 15% lower fuel mileage than promised. Source: The Essential Hybrid Car Handbook, by Nick Yost

  12. Hybrid Vehicle Technology Full Hybrid Assist Hybrid Mild Hybrid • Runs on just gasoline, just electricity, or both. • Toyota technology (used on Ford as well) • Best in city driving. • Example: Toyota Prius and Ford hybrids. • Electricity does not typically power the car by itself. • Small gasoline engine gets “boost” from electric motor. • Example: Honda Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) • Electric motor does not propel vehicle. • Motor-generator replaces starter and alternator, allowing engine to shut-down and restart in traffic while running A/C. • Example: GM pick-ups.

  13. Toyota Series Hybrid • In a series hybrid, the engine drives generator; the generator drives an electric motor. • The gasoline engine is designed to run efficiently in its optimum efficiency range. Toyota Hybrids Source: Toyota Motor Company

  14. Toyota Parallel Hybrid • In a parallel hybrid, both engine power and electric power drive wheels. • Battery is charged by causing the electric motor to act as a generator.

  15. Toyota Parallel Hybrid • The parallel hybrid system cannot drive the wheels from the electric motor while simultaneously charging the battery since the system has only one motor.

  16. Toyota Series/Parallel Hybrid • A series/parallel hybrid combines the series hybrid system with the parallel hybrid system in order to maximize the benefits of both systems. Planetary Gear

  17. Toyota Series/Parallel Hybrid • It has two motors, and depending on the driving conditions, uses only the electric motor or the driving power from both the electric motor and the engine, in order to achieve the highest efficiency level.

  18. Toyota Series/Parallel Hybrid • When necessary, the system drives the wheels while simultaneously generating electricity using a generator. • This is the system used in the Prius.

  19. Toyota Hybrid Comparison

  20. Toyota Hybrid Characteristics 1) ENERGY-LOSS REDUCTION The system automatically stops the idling of the engine (idling stop), thus reducing the energy that would normally be wasted.

  21. Toyota Hybrid Characteristics 2) ENERGY RECOVERY AND REUSE The energy that would normally be wasted as heat during deceleration and braking is recovered as electrical energy, which is then used to power the starter and the electric motor.

  22. Toyota Hybrid Characteristics 3) MOTOR ASSIST The electric motor assists the engine during acceleration.

  23. Toyota Hybrid Characteristics 4) HIGH-EFFICIENCY OPERATION CONTROL The system maximizes the vehicle’s overall efficiency by using the electric motor to run the vehicle under operating conditions in which the engine’s efficiency is low and by generating electricity under operating conditions in which the engine’s efficiency is high.

  24. Toyota Hybrid Characteristics The series/parallel hybrid system has all of these characteristics and therefore provides both superior fuel efficiency and driving performance.

  25. Toyota Hybrid THS II • High-efficiency gasoline engine that utilizes the Atkinson Cycle, which is a high-expansion ratio cycle. • This allows pressure in the combustion chamber at the end of the power-stroke to be equal to atmospheric pressure. • This uses all energy obtained from combustion process. Atkinson Cycle

  26. Toyota Hybrid THS II • Permanent magnet AC synchronous motor

  27. Toyota Hybrid THS II • High-performance nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery

  28. Toyota Hybrid THS II • Power control unit contains a high-voltage power circuit for raising the voltage of the power supply system for the motor and the generator to a high voltage of 500 V. • AC-DC inverter for converting between the AC current from the motor and the generator and the DC current from the hybrid battery

  29. Toyota Hybrid THS II • Power split device, which transmits the mechanical motive forces from the engine, the motor and the generator by allocating and combining them.

  30. Toyota Hybrid THS II • 1 Start and low to mid-range speeds • The engine stops when in an inefficient range, such as at start-up and in low to mid-range speeds. • The vehicle runs on the motor alone. (A)

  31. Toyota Hybrid THS II • 2 Driving under normal conditions • Engine power is divided by the power split device. • Some of the power turns the generator, which in turn drives the motor. (B) • The rest of the power drives the wheels directly. (C) • Power allocation is controlled to maximize efficiency.

  32. Toyota Hybrid THS II 3 Sudden acceleration Extra power is supplied from the battery (A), while the engine and high-output motor provide smooth response (B+C) for improved acceleration characteristics.

  33. Toyota Hybrid THS II • 4 Deceleration, braking • The high-output motor acts as a high-output generator, driven by the vehicle’s wheels. • This regenerative braking system recovers kinetic energy as electrical energy, which is stored in the high-performance battery. (D)

  34. Toyota Hybrid THS II • 5 Battery recharging • Battery level is managed to maintain sufficient reserves. • The engine drives the generator to recharge the battery when necessary. (E)

  35. Toyota Hybrid THS II

  36. Toyota Hybrid THS II • THS II uses an AC synchronous-type motor, which is a high-efficiency DC brushless motor with AC current. • Neodymium magnets (permanent magnets) and a rotor made of stacked electromagnetic steel plates form a high-performance motor.

  37. Toyota Hybrid THS II • The generator is also an AC synchronous type. • In order to supply sufficient power to the high-output motor, the generator is rotated at high speeds, increasing its output. • Runs up to 10,000 rpm. This high rpm has significantly increased the power supply up to the medium-speed range, improving the acceleration performance.

  38. Toyota Hybrid THS II

  39. Toyota Hybrid THS II • The power control unit contains an inverter that converts the DC from the battery into an AC for driving the motor and a DC/DC converter for conversion to 12V.

  40. Toyota Hybrid THS II • To maintain a constant charge, the new battery is discharged or receives charging energy from the generator and the motor. • It does not require external charging, as do electric vehicles.

  41. Toyota Hybrid THS II

  42. Toyota Hybrid THS II • A regenerative braking system is used which, during engine braking and braking using the foot brake, operates the electric motor as a generator, converting the vehicle’s kinetic energy into electrical energy, which is used to charge the battery.

  43. Toyota Hybrid THS II • The system is particularly effective in recovering energy during city driving, where driving patterns of repeated acceleration and deceleration are common.

  44. Toyota Hybrid THS II ECB – Electronically Controlled Brake • When the footbrake is being used, the system controls the coordination between the hydraulic brake of the ECB and the regenerative brake and preferentially uses the regenerative brake, thereby recovering energy even at lower vehicle speeds.

  45. Toyota Hybrid THS II • The hybrid transmission consists of the power split device, the generator, the electric motor and the reduction gears, etc.

  46. Toyota Hybrid THS II • The power from the engine is split into two by the power split device. One of the output shafts is connected to the motor and the wheels while the other is connected to the generator.

  47. Toyota Hybrid THS II • Power from the engine is transmitted through two routes, i.e., a mechanical route and an electrical route.

  48. Toyota Hybrid THS II • The power split device uses a planetary gear.

  49. Toyota Hybrid THS II • The rotational shaft of the planetary carrier inside the gear mechanism is directly linked to the engine • It transmits the motive power to the outer ring gear and the inner sun gear via pinion gears.

  50. Toyota Hybrid THS II • The rotational shaft of the ring gear is directly linked to the motor and transmits the drive force to the wheels, while the rotational shaft of the sun gear is directly linked to the generator.
