Toyota Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles
Electric Efficiency With Hybrid Confidence
What is a Plug-In Hybrid Vehicle?
A Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) combines a gasoline engine with an electric motor and a larger rechargeable battery. Unlike a traditional hybrid, a plug-in hybrid can be charged using an external power source to drive on electric power alone for certain distances before switching to hybrid operation. Toyota plug-in hybrid vehicles are designed to give drivers the flexibility of electric driving for daily commutes while still providing the long-distance confidence of a gas-powered hybrid vehicle.

An electric vehicle around town, plus the flexibility of a hybrid for longer adventures
What Makes a Plug-in Hybrid Different From a Hybrid?
A traditional Toyota Hybrid automatically charges its battery while driving and cannot be plugged in. A Toyota Plug-in Hybrid has a larger battery that can be externally charged and provides a longer all-electric driving experience before transitioning into hybrid mode.
How Does a Plug-in Hybrid Work?
Toyota Plug-in Hybrid vehicles use both electric and gasoline power to maximize efficiency and performance. When the battery has available charge, the vehicle can operate in EV Mode using only electricity. As the battery charge decreases or additional power is needed, the gasoline engine automatically operates alongside the electric motor in hybrid mode.
How long does a charge last in EV mode on a plug-in hybrid?
The distance and time a Toyota Plug-in Hybrid can drive in EV Mode depends on the model, battery size, driving habits, speed, weather, terrain, and use of climate controls. When fully charged, many Toyota Plug-in Hybrid models can provide enough all-electric driving range to handle daily commuting and short trips before automatically switching to hybrid operation.
