Honda's hybrid engine is slightly different from Toyota one (Prius, Estima etc). It emphasis power rather than fuel efficiency. If you lot for technology, hybrid is still at infancy, but it saves fuel and makes our environment a bit 'safer'. But then again everyone knows it is down to our attitude!! How you drive not what you drive.. we want more hybrid!! you all slag off this machine ahh. Honda's hybrid engine is slightly different from Toyota one (Prius, Estima etc).

As for the 8 valve and soch, i reckon this is for feul saving factors to be brought up with the hybrid concept. Although its just an 8 valve engine i'm pretty sure the engine management system is an advanced one developed to manage between the gas engine and electirc motor to sync. the rear is a major 'gagal' la beb… but who knows, with the fuel price keep coming up, this hybrid design engine will the main choice.
