Advanced tool designed for in-depth technical education on hybrid vehicle transmissions. This hands-on trainer provides a fully operational cutaway model of the Toyota Prius Motor Generator 1 (MG1), which functions as both a power management unit and an integral part of the hybrid powertrain system. Mounted on a mobile stand, the trainer offers a clear visual understanding of hybrid power distribution, control systems, and regenerative charging principles, making it essential for vocational automotive education.
Features
Demonstrates the operation of MG1 as the control element for the power split planetary gear set, showcasing both motor and generator functions.
Planetary gear set visualizes the continuously variable transmission (CVT) mechanism within a hybrid system, highlighting the absence of a traditional gearbox.
Equipped with a handwheel for manual manipulation, enabling students to observe transmission operations and gear interactions.
Mounted on a sturdy stand with wheels for ease of movement and classroom integration.
Features authentic Toyota Prius MG1 and MG2 units, offering a OEM experience with hybrid vehicle technology.
Value for Students
Understand hybrid powertrain systems, focusing on the operation of Motor Generator 1 (MG1) and its role in managing power split between the engine and electric motors.
