This system allows the new Vitara to circulate in 100% electric mode on short journeys and optimize battery charging when braking or braking.
The development of ‘Mild Hybrid’ technology was Suzuki’s first step in electrifying its vehicle range towards a more powerful hybrid system. Since their robotic gearbox (Auto Gear Shift or AGS) was a light, compact and efficient system, they thought that combining the AGS with an engine would bring several benefits to a hybrid system. Following the launch of an A-segment model equipped with a ‘Strong Hybrid’ system in Japan in 2016, work is underway to improve it and bring it to European B and C-segment models.
It involved creating a hybrid system that combined a single engine and the AGS, a perfect plan for developing light and fuel-efficient cars. In addition, using the AGS, work was done on a pleasant driving feeling, also for a hybrid car.
The main difference is that the car with the Strong Hybrid technology can only run on the electric motor, while the ‘Mild Hybrid’ does not. Another difference is that the ‘Strong Hybrid’ system uses most of the energy generated during deceleration, as the system regenerates energy even when the brake is applied, while the ‘Mild Hybrid’ system can only regenerate while driving. . pedal is not pressed. In addition, while sailing, the system runs the electric motor to charge the battery when it is most efficient.
The hybrid system must have excellent respect for the environment without sacrificing driving sensations. To achieve this, they have used the AGS to perfect the instant feel when engaging the gears using the electric motor, while achieving smoother acceleration by having a motor that compensates for the loss of torque during gear changes. .
To make a light and compact hybrid, you need to be very careful about the size of the engine and do not forget about the power. It was difficult to get the most out of the electric motor to turn a small motor into a ‘strong hybrid’ that would satisfy our customers.
A system that requires an expensive, powerful engine can only be installed in the largest vehicles. Suzuki’s hybrid system is small, light and offers great value for money, but with optimum performance. In addition, it can be used in any vehicle.
The technology based on Suzuki’s motto ‘smaller, simpler, lighter, shorter and cleaner’ combined with the idea of realizing a sustainable society, is indicated to minimize the impact on the environment.
