Nissan’s Unique Approach To Affordable HEV Technology Set To Debut In Pathfinder Hybrid

Hybrid Indication

Nissan is known for its innovative approach in the field of automobiles. The sustainable mobility model that includes electric and gasoline hybrid systems has enabled the Japanese giant to sell over 80,000 LEAF EV’s in the year 2013. The Li-ion (lithium ion) battery technology with one motor and two-clutch rear wheel drive clocks over 350 horsepower and gives you 30 miles per gallon.

The key elements that make the hybrid system noticeable in the Pathfinder are below:

  • The compact lithium battery system is pretty powerful – not that difficult to configure.
  • On the Pathfinder Hybrid, the battery secures itself snugly under the passenger seat on the third row.
  • With this range of models, there is no difference in the capacity for cargo or passengers – it is very roomy.
  • The hybrid’s 2.5-liter inline four cylinder has been aligned on the vehicle with a supercharger. This provides the car with amazing horsepower and torque at about 243 pound feet.
  • The downsized internal combustible engines give the vehicle the pep and charge required.
  • Added to the technology available on the machine, you have continuous variable transmissions with the advanced Xtronic CVT. This powers the gas and electric motors. With this technology in place, you get automatic transmissions.
  • The technology used in the Pathfinder Hybrid is unlike any other and the best part about the automobile is that it is not that heavy on the pocket.

Buying a new car requires that you read up on what it has to offer in addition to test driving the vehicle. Visit Coast Nissan for more information on Nissan vehicles.

Nissan’s HR12DDR Engine

hr12de_1

The Nissan’s HR12DDR engine is designed to reduce the fuel consumption while still promising a smooth driving experience. The emission volume is decreased and the efficiency of the engine is enhanced so as to reduce fuel consumption as compared to the general gas engines.

The HR12DDR engine utilizes a supercharger for achieving the required power. In vehicles using a gasoline engine, it is obvious that more or less 20% of energy is utilized in gaining energy through burnt gas. But, the case is different when it comes to HR12DDR, as 20% of the energy produced is utilized efficiently by various systems of the car.

The engine increases fuel efficiency by reducing friction and pumping loss. It also enhances the heat efficiency, in turn reducing the consumption of fuel. Friction can be reduced by 10 % if the metal parts are coated with special friction-reducing agents. Also, reducing tension in the moving belts helps reduce the among of friction.

The 4 stroke gasoline engine follows a cycle to generate energy. The cycle starts with intake of fuel, which gets compressed and combusted and is finally given out through the exhaust. If the air suction becomes difficult then there are chances of fuel being wasted at the time of intake. So, Nissan’s HR12DDR engine uses the technique of the miller cycle which can delay the closure of intake in order to reduce wastage.

To improve the heat efficiency, the ratio of compression in the HR12DDR engine is increased to 12:1 by the help of supercharger. For more details on Nissan’s HR12DDR engine, please visit Coast Nissan.
