What is a Hybrid Electric Vehicle?

Toyota hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are designed to help you get the more out of your drive with fewer emissions. It's advanced in every way while taking complicated out of the picture. Once you make the switch, you won't have to worry because it is easy to own and maintain.
HEVs combine the power of conventional engine with the fuel savings and eco-friendliness of an electric motor.
Toyota HEVs like the Prius, Prius C and Corolla Altis Hybrid are powered by a self-charging electric motor – so there’s no need to plug it in.

HEV has two power sources; Gasoline engine and Electric motor resulting in greater efficiency.

Why go HEV?

Reduced Emission
REDUCED EMISSIONS

You use the gasoline engine much less, so the amount of CO2 and other pollutants generated is also minimized. Enjoy being good to the environment.

Fuel Efficiency
FUEL EFFICIENCY

Many times, you will be using power from the electric motors' battery, so you'll need much less gasoline. Enjoy spending a lot less to go places!

Hybrid Acceleration
ACCELERATION

Electric motors have high torque, so your vehicle can increase speed rapidly and smoothly. Enjoy a satisfying and responsive drive!

Hybrid Quietness
QUIETNESS

Electric motors make very little noise while running, so your drive will be most silent. Enjoy creating your own in-car ambience!

How It Works

Car Formation
AT REST

When starting the car, driving at constant speed in low and mid-speed ranges, and at full stop, the electric motor takes over for the engine, minimizing fuel consumption.

RAPID ACCELERATION

When you need to go faster, the gasoline engine automatically activates and adds its power. This also charges the battery that electric motors.

WHEN STOPPING

When the brakes are applied, an electronically controlled brake system (ECB) uses kinetic energy to recharge the electric motors' battery. With this Regenerative Brake System, you don't need to plug in any Toyota hybrid vehicle.

In global perspective, Toyota is the leader in the electrified vehicle market space.

Global Electrified Vehicle Sales
13 MILLION UNITS
Global Electrified Vehicle Sales

Toyota’s cumulative sales of electrified vehicles have already crossed 13 million units over the 21 years since the launch of the Prius in Japan in 1997.

Global CO2 Emissions Reduced
13 MILLION TONS
Global CO2 Emissions Reduced

As a result, we have reduced CO2 emissions by 103 million tons globally.

Gasoline Saved Globally
38 MILLION KILOLITERS
Gasoline Saved Globally

Our hybrid electric vehicles have resulted to savings of 38 million kiloliters of gasoline, enough to power over 10 million homes in one year OR nearly 2 million trips to the moon and back!

Frequently Asked Questions

Toyota positions hybrid technology (which includes the component technologies necessary to develop electrified-cars) as a core technology that can be used with a variety of fuels. We believe it is a key way of improving fuel efficiency, reducing CO2 emissions by saving energy, and enabling the diversification of fuels.
Toyota Hybrid System (THS) combines a high-efficiency engine with a high-output motor so the efficiency of both power sources is realized depending on cruising conditions. It is an energy management system that pursues the best possible efficiency.

Furthermore, Toyota’s hybrids are Series-parallel hybrid. This refers to HEVs which are equipped with relatively big batteries and motors. Series-parallel hybrid can run on EV mode alone for periods where engine efficiency is not good. Strong HEVs achieve good fuel efficiency and environment performance.
The battery lifespan is the same as the vehicle’s lifespan. Like gasoline vehicles, the HEV’s lifespan depends on usage circumstances. Basically, no periodical maintenance for HEV battery is needed.
Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) do not need to be plugged-in since they are self-charging. The battery is charged through the motion and braking of the car, thanks to the combination of petrol engine and electric motor. Through "regenerative braking", energy that would've been lost from stepping on the brakes is stored in the battery instead.
Toyota has introduced a system across Asia for collecting and reusing used HEV batteries for HEV vehicles, using the used-battery alone for other purposes, and extracts rare metals such as cobalt from batteries to reuse them.Toyota’s Nickel batteries are also 100% recyclable.
Any normal unleaded gasoline.
Normal periodic maintenance as any conventional vehicle :) Your regular PMS essentially.
The battery is designed to last the life of the car. The car has normal 3 year warranty while the battery has 5 year warranty, though again, is designed to last well beyond the warranty.
The Hybrid system intelligently does the switching for you seamlessly based on your speed, acceleration, etc. You have the option of going in pure EV mode by pressing the EV Mode button. This is if the battery has enough charge and if you driving below 50 kph.
Of course. Simply bring it to any Toyota dealership like your conventional Toyota vehicle and they will know how to service it.
