Found some automotive engineering video* resources that may be of interest.

Also, there are other hybrids systems overview and operation on the WeberAuto youtube channel.

It works by "pushing?" Amazing! You learn something every day. Thanks for the vid!

Awesome, thanks for posting those informative videos.

I think I've already come across some mistakes...

The narrator claims the ICE in the HCH is an Atkinson cycle but I'm pretty sure it isn't.

He also says it is more efficient at high RPM. It may make more power at high RPM but the car definitely gets better mileage at low RPMs.

I haven't got to the "pushing" part yet but I suspect an error there as well...

The pushing part is correct it keeps the flexible belt rigid/together.

Okay I'll take your word for it. How about the claim that the HCH has an Atkinson cycle ICE?
