Make the Switch to a Toyota Hybrid or Plug-In Hybrid
For Toyota customers deciding between a gas powered engine and electric motor, there are two other great options. If you don’t want to go with an all electric car but still want to save money on gas and help the environment, you can choose a hybrid electric vehicle or a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle.
Both Toyota hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles greatly improve your fuel economy so you spend less money and time at the gas pump. They both also use regenerative braking that captures kinetic energy from braking and converts it into electric power that helps recharge the hybrid’s battery.
Hybrid EVs vs Plug In Hybrid EVs—What’s the Difference?
A Toyota hybrid vehicle switches between two power sources—an internal combustion engine and a hybrid battery. The switch is automatic. When the vehicle uses up its electric range, it switches to the gas engine.
Toyota Plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powered vehicles operate much the same way, but generally feature a larger battery pack. PHEV cars and SUVs require owners to charge the battery from an external electricity source. Some PHEVs can travel more than 40 miles on all-electric power when fully charged.
