Empowering the Future
We’ve been leading the charge for more than 20 years. So that today you can choose from an array of Toyota electrified vehicles and powertrains, and find the right one for you.
OVER 20 MILLION
TOYOTA ELECTRIFIED VEHICLES
SOLD WORLDWIDE SINCE 1997
Hybrid Electric
INTRODUCTION
Freedom to Move
A Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) gives you the freedom to drive like you always have, while helping to reduce fuel costs and lower emissions along the way1. With two sources of power that work seamlessly together, and no need to plug-in, an HEV asks only that you enjoy the ride.
1As compared to an equivalent conventionally gas powered vehicle.
BENEFITS
Electrify Your Ride
Better performance, less expensive to operate and maintain, and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. What more could you want!
GET IN AND GO
Hybrid electric powertrains work automatically in the background, so you don’t need to change a thing about how you drive or fuel your vehicle.
GO THE DISTANCE
The hybrid battery recharges on the go so you have the added confidence to get you where you need to go, without the need to plug in.
QUICK & QUIET
The electric motors deliver Instant torque for instant acceleration and a soothingly quiet ride.
HELP REDUCE FUEL COSTS AND EMMISSIONS
Depending on your driving needs and habits, you can spend some of the time in zero-fuel, zero-emissions driving.
NO ADDITIONAL ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Toyota hybrid electric vehicles follow the same maintenance schedule as our gas-powered vehicles.
PART OF THE SOLUTION
Since 1997, electrified Toyota vehicles have prevented over 94 million tons of CO2 emissions globally.
HOW IT WORKS
Powerful & Proven
HEVs combine a gas engine with electric motors, automatically choosing the optimal source and blend of power. Because the hybrid battery recharges on the go through regenerative braking, you never need to plug‑in.
STARTING UP
In most conditions, only the electric motor is engaged, saving fuel and delivering instant torque with minimal emissions.
ACCELERATING & CRUISING
The gas engine and electric motor team up to provide the ideal mix of power for seamless acceleration. Excess energy is used to help recharge the battery.
DECELERATING & BRAKING
The electric motor takes over. The regenerative braking system converts braking energy into electric energy to help recharge the battery onboard the vehicle.
RESTING & REVERSING
When stopped, the gas engine shuts down to conserve fuel – unless the battery is running low. When reversing at low speed, only the electric motor is required.
