Engine and 2 electric motors, no 'transmission'.
I like the sales guy in that video. He is knowledgeable but not super-slick... "what the hell is this?!?" :laughing:

I would rather have the sport package as well.

"2014 Honda Accord Hybrid Press Kit....
The Accord Hybrid is not equipped with a conventional physical transmission. Instead, the Electric Continuously Variable Transmission (E-CVT) consists of the interaction of the Accord Hybrid's gasoline engine and two electric motors. Coordinated by the IPU, the E-CVT offers smooth and predictable acceleration matched with efficient low-rpm highway cruising when the gasoline engine is in operation. Gasoline engine shutdown is seamlessly integrated into the operation of the Accord Hybrid when appropriate.
The E-CVT system, unlike other full hybrid systems, operates without the need for a torque converter, mechanical pulley or belt. It instead uses two motors for driving and generating power. Unlike a conventional CVT, E-CVT is optimally and rapidly able to control both engine and electric motor rotation in order to deliver higher fuel efficiency and quicker engine response in each driving mode."
This powertrain was updated for the 2018 Accord, and updated again for the 2020 CR-V hybrid, but I think it's all an evolution of one system that Honda developed.

Did find this:
The 2020 Honda CR-V Hybrid comes with a 2.0-liter Atkinson cycle gasoline engine, two electric motors, and a hybrid battery pack. And there’s no conventional CVT automatic or any transmission for that matter. The vehicle achieves propulsion in three ways, depending on the behavior of your right foot. The modes are Hybrid Drive, Engine Drive, and EV Mode.
In Hybrid Drive, the gasoline engine drives a generator, which in turn powers the electric motor to move the front wheels. When traction is low, an electronic clutch activates to send power from the motor to the rear wheels. The CR-V Hybrid is the first all-wheel drive vehicle to utilize Honda’s two-motor hybrid system.
Like the past couple CRV, it has an underbite. No faux floating C-pillar though, so it has that on the RAV4.

they are pricier though. XLE is missing a number of desired features, and a RAV Limited is about 10% more money (MSRP) vs. a CRV touring,

Those squarebody Fords have a following and all bets are off if they are diesels.

So, looking like 2020 might just be a good year to pull the trigger, eventually. Luckily, all is well with the Golf and just over the 63K mark. Averaging about 45 miles/week which ain't to bad. Next month I'll get it on the turnpike for my short trip to St. Cloud which will be good for it. Still wanting to test drive the Kia Seltos and see how it drives.

Feel very lucky to have gotten into this kind of work actually. And the best part is that I can always cut back a day or two depending on my situation. And most of the other folks are pretty cool. Sure, there are a few jerks but, you'd find that anywhere.

The driving experience is, overall, much better than I expected. It's quiet, it feels solid, the shifts are smooth. The ride is better than the Tahoe. CarPlay is amazing. The LED headlights work really well on both high and low beam. The powertrain is the only dead giveaway that this is an older model--the six speed automatic transmission could use a couple more gears.
A couple of things annoyed me. The gas tank has a capacity of 38 gallons, but it started screaming bloody murder and showing a range of under 20 miles when there were over six gallons left in the tank (I filled up with 32 after driving 10-20 miles with the low fuel warning). There was also a horrible alternator whine around 60 MPH when using CarPlay to stream podcasts--I'm going to try using a different Lightning cable to see whether that remedies the issue.
I filled up twice. First tank was ~11 MPG, second tank was around ~12.5, which is worse than I was expecting. Driving around 80 on the interstate where conditions permitted. I hope the mileage improves once it's broken in.
Does Toyota pay some sort of subsidy to US Bank? On a cash purchase or loan, I was under the impression that the total discount on most full size trucks, regardless of make, was closer to $8-10,000.
Anyway, the buyout (including "purchase option fee") is a whopping $39,929 on a $50k truck.
Tundra seems to be rated 13/18, so maybe 15 overall?
If you weren't short term leasing, I would recommend a bed cover.
They are good for a 5 to 10 improvement in fuel mileage.
Maybe the ACC has a distance option, my F150 does.
The low fuel warning may change as mileage normalizes.

US Bank has their own lease programs. High residual, but also likely a high MF, too.

As for the adaptive cruise - you can adjust the following distance (there are three levels to choose and the max distance is the default). It is very reactive to what it sees as people cutting you off. I find myself using cancel and resume, kind of like you would do without adaptive cruise...however I don't have to do it quite as much as I would without adaptive cruise. I do really like it when traffic is heavy but moving because it will slow down automagically and then resume your set speed when the traffic picks up speed again, all without having to do anything.
Congrats again - beautiful truck!
NICE TRUCK! I’m happy for you! Great color/option combination. As @tommister2 said, there is an adjustment button for how much room to leave between you and the vehicle in front of you.
I’m glad you had a safe trip home and a positive dealership experience.

Yikes on your fuel mileage! Our '01 Chevy 2500HD with a 6.0L V-8 and 4.10 rear end gets that even on a bad day. I hope it gets better.
Edit: MSRP - $50,228 including delivery processing and handling fee of $1,595.
Rent charge - $1,945.75
Honestly, if the residual were in the low $30s, it would probably be a tough call on whether to buy it out at the end of the lease versus trying to find another cheapo lease.
It's straight up old school.

"The EPA estimates the 2019 Insight's fuel economy at 55/49/52 mpg city/highway/combined. In the real world we saw an average fuel economy of 46.1 mpg. A spot check of 10 of fill-ups (of the 64 total) in the logbook shows only one that broke the 50-mpg barrier. The rest hovered around the 46-47 mpg mark."

The lease is cheap because of that huge residual, and reasonable money factor
