As for hybrid technology, how big is the gap between Toyota and BYD?

#ChineseCar #NewEnergy #ElectricVehicles
When it comes to the hybrid technology of Toyota and BYD, after a detailed comparison, I found that the difference between the two is obvious. In today's video, I will talk about the gap between them in terms of the driving experience of the two cars, the hybrid technology level of Toyota and BYD, and the status quo of the two car companies. OK, let’s get started!

Good insights!

Toyota is way behind EV technology. It may disappear soon if it will not catch up quickly.

all byd HEVs need to be DMO tech with adding a one thing is to make the engine act as a generator only without involving in moving wheels. 1352

@don.timeless4993 That would be stupid. At high speed, the motor is so INEFFICIENT, but the ICE is very very efficient at high speed. Honda EHEV technology also utilize ICE at high speed cruising. But BYD DM-I is a step up from Honda EHEV in that DM-I also take advantage of excess energy from ICE, during the high speed cruising, to charge the bigger battery pack, while Honda just disregard this excess energy,, because it has tiny battery pack.

@@surapolp good information!

ICE is never efficient no matter how or high speed.
The thing make ICE efficient at high speed is transmission
If EV install a transmission and it will improve it's high speed energy performance greatly

Who made the first Hybrid and how long ago was that .

The problem with Toyota was that they focused too much on hydrogen fuel cell technology. When the cost of generating hydrogen remains too high for so long, the hydrogen fuel cell market stays very small, and Toyota cannot realize the return of their investment. And that is without saying that the current way of generating hydrogen is very NOT green, and doesn't help the global warming problem. The small market growth in hydrogen fuel cell market is very harmful for Toyota. They should have invested in both hydrogen fuel cell technology and battery technology. Not sure why they bet so heavily on hydrogen fuel cell technology, and didn't do much in battery technology. May have to do with the fact that Japan cannot control the source of raw materials to make batteries? I would think that Japan is not a small country, they could have invested in both technologies at the same time. Of course, we cannot say that Toyota will be down and out. Not at all, when 4th generation nuclear power plants become widely available, hydrogen will be cheaper to produce, and Toyota hydrogen fuel cell technology may all the suddenly becomes a winner. This is just a matter of how soon 4th generation nuclear power plants will become available. If 4th generation nuclear power plants are always 'around the corner" and don't show up in large number soon, Toyota may be in trouble because other car companies will have plenty of time to fine tune their hydrogen fuel cell technology, and Toyota market leader position of hydrogen fuel cell technology will become less and less valuable.

they put their bet on the wrong horse. Their hybrid is good, I have got one, but BYD system will overtake it.

actually, China recently found huge O&G + coal reserves? there is a new tech that is almost zero emissions for coal to methanol conversion - perhaps China ought to seriously look into this? Geely already has methanol (E100) vehicles and E100 from what i understand is already available at the pump in China? why not offer this globally?

Talking Fuel Engine (BTW should be ICE) while showing picture of Fuel Cell. Authority went out of the windows at that moment

nice presentation and a pleasant speaker. The EV chain does not make sense to me; from mining to use of copper and other precious metals to battery replacement cost and disposal to and lousy resale value.

[@stevendegreef93]

What? A pleasant speakr? That computer voice accompanying that silly generic non-informative bland picture slide?

Clickbait IA video

toyota is now going to use BYD hybrid system for their new PHEVs.

Horrible artificial voice is a hindrance to the info presented
