17 February 2023 · Toyota Hybrid Vehicles
A Hybrid car is a vehicle that takes the benefits of both traditional petrol engines and electric motors to deliver reduced fuel consumption with lower emissions without the need to stop to charge like a fully electric vehicle. The combination of a petrol engine and the electric motor provides unparalleled fuel efficiency with highly responsive handling and an awesome driving performance. Toyota’s Hybrid system is constantly being developed and improved to provide industry-leading Hybrid vehicles, from compact hatchbacks to spacious SUVs.
Toyota Hybrid engines charge while you drive, storing the energy produced through deceleration and braking in the vehicle’s battery to keep it charged. Our Hybrids are also built with intelligent switching technology allowing the vehicle to automatically switch between the electric motor and petrol engine as needed. For example, during low-load driving, such as when the vehicle is stationary or in city traffic, the vehicle will switch to electric mode with zero fuel consumption and significantly reduced CO2 emissions. But, when accelerating or cruising at high speeds, the petrol engine will automatically turn on to provide extra power and responsive performance when you need it.
