I think all hybrids have no 12volt starter motor. The ICE starts using high voltage battery turning over the ICE connected motor-generator. So how would the ICE ever get started with a dead high voltage battery? I’ve never heard anything like a conventional starter motor on my Honda hybrid. Why would an automaker include a conventional starter when there is a motor-generator already attached to the ICE?
