Civic SI Hybrid

jmann · 06-14-2009, 01:17 AM

think there might be a future for this? or maybe a battery powered SI? I think Tesla needs more competition

mikeboba · 06-14-2009, 04:55 AM

That would be an abomination. Please don't ever speak of that again... This reminds me of the time someone asked for an automatic Si, that would be even worse...

The tesla goes from 0-60mph in less than 4 seconds. It does the quarter mile in 12.7 seconds. It weighs around 2700lb and it's also rwd.

a battery powered SI = tesla competition?

stop making stupid threads like this one.

I think they also need to make a solar powered rock

No thanks, I dont even own a Si, but im sure it will just ruin the car's feel and there will be no point on spending more money to buy a Si.

It's also heavier and slower than the gasoline powered Lotus it's based on, and the batteries easily overheat. They also don't get anywhere close to their advertised range when you drive it remotely aggressively.

Si goes "vrrooom vroooom"

Electric Si goes "_________________". (whistling sound here).

lol.......

but yes, there is a market for such cars.........not yet.

SI powered by a flux capacitor. Of course, triggering the whole thing would have to be faster than 80mph.

pigfragger · 06-16-2009, 02:13 AM

honda already made the type r hybrid, so that's ahead of the SI hybrid.
YouTube - THE FUTURE TYPE R ! HYDBRD ???? IMA ???????

chugiboi · 09-01-2009, 02:20 PM

the IMA Motor and Battery add up about 20hp, so that will boost the Si to 217hp, not bad.

jbsali · 09-01-2009, 08:47 PM

this thread = FAIL

and theres no market for it! Honda Canada is having a hard enough time pushing the Honda Insight

psyshack · 09-01-2009, 09:00 PM

The Si like type hybrid is going to be CR-Z. And it will be built.
