[Top 4] Automotive technologies used by Honda

We have seen many changes in this technological world. Somewhere we have seen changes in mobile phones, now called as Smartphones, and somewhere you see the different age of new defined tech progress. And here in this post, we are going to talk about one of those technological progresses that Honda has done. Honda has done a remarkable progress in past few years. It has become the most appreciating brand of all. Honda's consistent habit in pursuing ideas and exploring technological challenges have led to practical solutions like fuel-efficient vehicles and engines. And here in this post we are going to discuss about technology that Honda uses in their cars and bikes. After a long research in the automotive domain, they have created a lot of fuel efficient vehicles which now stand into the category of best high-end  automobiles right now.

i-VTEC Technology

i-VTEC is the acronym for intelligent VTEC (Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control), an evolution of Honda's VTEC engine. It has given a boost to Honda’s framework as such engines are fuel efficient and hence, their performance is much better when compared to other engines. i-VTEC regulates the opening of air-fuel intake valves and exhaust valves in accordance with engine speeds. By regulating valve opening to match engine speed, the agile i-VTEC engine adjusts its characteristics to realize both superior power and low fuel consumption. As a vehicle owner, one demands a high-performance engine, and this technology clearly fulfills the need.

Safety

In terms of safety, Honda stands among one of the best automobile companies across the world. This achievement is because of its best safety-based designs. The advanced safety-based concepts and technologies has given Honda a positive edge over its competitors when you talk about the safety features in vehicles. This helps in preventing outrageous road accidents. Safety, in automobiles, is generally of two types. "Active safety" is used to refer to technology assisting in the prevention of a crash(such as good steering and brakes), and "passive safety" to components of the vehicle (primarily airbags, seat-belts and the physical structure of the vehicle) that help to protect occupants during a crash. Honda approaches safety issues through a core feature of advanced safety technologies which are applied to virtually all models as standard equipment to prevent accidents.

Earth Dreams Technology

The new Earth Dreams Technology engines once again assert Honda's desire to lead the industry in power-train efficiency while providing responsive power and fun for drivers. It is a series of measures in which efficiency of internal combustion components including engine, and transmission, as well as electric-powered motor technology, is further improved.

Integrated Motor Assist

The Integrated Motor Assist, or IMA as it is commonly known, is Honda's hybrid car technology that uses a gasoline-electric drive system developed to achieve higher fuel economy and low exhaust emissions without compromising engine efficiency. The theory behind IMA is to use regenerative braking to recapture some of the energy lost through deceleration, and reuse that energy later on to help accelerate the vehicle. This has two effects: it increases the rate of acceleration, and it reduces the work required of the petrol engine.

So, here were some of the points which connect Honda to the next generation of automobiles where you get only one conclusion that is the best of all tribes.
