HONDA PRESENTS A new concept in sporty driving. A mid-engine, 4-seater sedan that delivers both performance and efficiency to spare.

The Dualnote comes equipped with the Honda IMA System. A further refinement of the unique Civic Hybrid system, this power plant combines a 3.5-litre V6 i-VTEC engine with electric motor/generator assist.

An additional front-drive motor is added, for a drive package that puts out a walloping 400 horsepower, while at the same time achieving unprecedented fuel economy of 18 km/l (5.6 litres per 100km). The result: a fusion of high-powered output and steadfast environmental friendliness. But that’s not all.

Dualnote´s mid-engine, rear-drive, hybrid 4-wheel drive power plant also come equipped with ATTS for smoother, more stable cornering and VSA to suppress side slip.

These systems are synchronised to work together, providing 4-wheel independent control that employs each tyre to maximum effect, for a car that delivers the ultimate in starting, stopping, and handling performance.

FACTS
· Honda Dualnote concept car
· Mid-engine
· 4-seater sedan
· Combined 3.5-litre V6 and electric motor/generator
