What is IMA? Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) is an incredibly exciting Honda innovation. A highly efficient petrol engine works in tandem with a highly effective electric motor to boost acceleration and dramatically reduce fuel consumption. The Civic Hybrid can travel 1160km on a single tank of fuel.
Acceleration When you start off or accelerate the electric and petrol engines combine to give a dual power supply – maximising efficiency when putting maximum burden on the engine.
Cruising Once cruising (over 20kmph) the electric motor kicks in and stops the pistons firing – providing power from recycled energy. This recycled energy comes from the battery pack which powers the electric motor.
Deceleration The battery gets charged when the car is slowing, travelling down hill or braking with the wheels acting like a dynamo to charge the power pack.
Idling When stationary the engine stops, conserving fuel and energy. But passenger comforts such as climate control and the radio continue to function as normal.
