hey guys
Maruti Suzuki has introduced a new smart
hybrid system in its 2018 Ciaz facelift
what features does it have and how does
the system work let's find out in this
video
now hybrid technology isn't really new
to Maruti Suzuki it was introduced in cars
such as the Ciaz and Ertiga
in as early as 2015 with the SHVS smart
hybrid vehicle system however with the
new Ciaz 2018 facelift Maruti Suzuki
has introduced an enhanced version of SHVS
and has decided now to simply call it
the smart hybrid so how does this
technology really work well let's find
out well in the latest smart hybrid
system you get another battery in
addition to the existing one so you now
have a lithium ion and lead acid dual
battery setup which will help in
preserving more energy and thus be able
to provide more fuel economy it also
reduces the chances of the battery
backup itself failing with some Ciaz owners
complained of previously besides that
the smart hybrid system provides three
main features these features are idle
start/stop brake energy regeneration and
torque assist function let's talk about
each of these in detail
number one the idle start/stop system
the idle start/stop system works to
switch off the engine whenever the car
is idling in traffic or otherwise and
the moment you want to get a move on and
press the accelerator the recharged
battery and an electric motor will take
care of starting the engine and not use
any fossil fuel for that purpose number
two brake energy regeneration now this
system is all important since this is
the only way your battery gets recharged
breaking or deceleration charges the
high-capacity batteries which in return
assist the engine's idle start stop
system and the torque assist function
this means every bit of braking or
slowing down counts number 3 torque assist
function as I said before the smart
hybrid system now has two batteries so
the energy stored in lithium ion battery
and the electric motor assist
the petrol engine during acceleration
especially when the car starts moving
from a standstill or an incline
well these are all features of the smart
hybrid system itself another great value
add that the Ciaz has gets is a section in the
multi information display that gives
real-time info on the functioning of the
smart hybrid it shows when the car is
deriving power from the engine and when
it is from the electric motor so guys
that was all about Maruti Suzuki is
new-and-improved smart hybrid system
