You got me confused when you quote the Hondas as mild-hybrids. At least for me, every car which uses both engines for traction is a parallel hybrid, while a mild-hybrid would use the electric motor only for auxiliary functions such as power-steering pump, air-conditioner compressor, like the first generation of the Silverado Hybrid.
