Why choose a Toyota hybrid vehicle?
Since 1997, Toyota has been able to reduce CO2 emissions thanks to its hybrid vehicles. That's 94 million tons of CO2 emissions globally. Toyota hybrid vehicles allow you to reduce your carbon footprint without changing any of your driving or fuelling habits.
With Toyota hybrid vehicles that make no compromises, you get power, performance and reliability. The hybrid battery of a Toyota hybrid recharges itself while driving, no need to plug it in. In addition, no additional maintenance is required for a hybrid engine.
With all these advantages and a huge range of model choices, why not go for the hybrid?
A hybrid engine, how does it work?
Toyota hybrid vehicles combine an electric system and a gasoline one. No driver intervention is required, the combination of the two is done automatically. The result: the engine's hybridity reduces emissions by 70% compared to conventional gasoline vehicles, without compromising the level of performance.
PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLES
Toyota offers a range of plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV), such as the Prius Prime. These models can be plugged in to extend their autonomy in electric mode. Operationally, these vehicles work the same as regular hybrid vehicles, but give you an added advantage: PHEV vehicles can run much longer in 100% electric mode!
SIMPLE AND QUICK LOADING
The Prius Prime has many advantages, including reduced charging time. Without even needing any additional equipment, this model has one of the fastest recharge times in its category!
Starting Up: In order to save gasoline, only the electric motor is engaged when starting. It also helps provide instant torque under most conditions.
Accelerating and Cruising: While driving, the electric and gas motors are used in symbiosis, providing the perfect mix of power without compromising performance. The excess energy is used towards recharging the electric battery.
Decelerating and Braking: During deceleration and braking, the electric motor takes over completely. The regenerative braking system converts kinetic energy into electric energy to recharge the battery.
Resting and Reversing: When the vehicle is stationary, the gasoline engine stops completely and is replaced by the electrical system (unless the battery charge is too low), this way you save fuel. The same is true when the vehicle is in reverse at low speed.
Toyota offers the most diverse hybrid range on the market with vehicles for all needs and tastes. Toyota hybrid vehicles offer several advantages and combine performance, CO2 emissions reduction and safety.
Achieve similar - and sometimes even better - performance than equivalent gasoline vehicles with Toyota hybrid vehicles. You don't have to compromise on performance.
Take to the road just like you did in the past! With Toyota hybrid vehicles, keep your driving habits the same. Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive system works in full transparency and does not require any adaptation.
Toyota hybrid vehicles do not need to be plugged in. Their synergistic hybrid system recharges automatically as you drive.
Toyota hybrid vehicles follow the same regular maintenance schedule as gasoline vehicles. So you do not need to pay additional fees for maintenance.
Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) can be plugged in to extend the electric autonomy of the vehicle. The Prius Prime model, for example, has a total range of up to 1,035 km* with a full tank of gas and fully charged battery.
Since their introduction in 1997, Toyota hybrid vehicles have avoided the emission of more than 94 million tonnes of CO2 worldwide.
En optant pour les véhicules hybrides Toyota, vous vous joignez au mouvement pour les transports durables. Par rapport aux niveaux de 2010, Toyota a pour objectif de promouvoir l'environnement via la réduction des émissions de ses véhicules neufs de 90 %, d'ici 2050.
At the end of their useful life, the batteries of our hybrid vehicles are recycled or reconverted for a different use, like any other type of battery.
Safety is our priority and hybrid vehicles are no exception. Our vehicles are all tested taking into consideration the Canadian climate in addition to following Canadian motor vehicle safety standards. Plus, the Toyota Safety Sense Active Safety Suite is included with all of our hybrid vehicles.
To ensure they perform well in all climates, Toyota hybrid cars have been subjected to rigorous cold weather testing. They were therefore designed with Canadian winter temperatures in mind.
For more than 98% of Toyota hybrid vehicles sold since 2001, the original battery has never been replaced. This is because the batteries in Toyota hybrid vehicles are built to last. In addition, they are covered by an 8-year or 160,000 km warranty, like all hybrid components of vehicles.
Vehicles for all needs and all driving styles, that's what you'll find in Toyota's vast hybrid range. From subcompacts to sedans and SUVs, Toyota has a model for everyone.
Disclaimer - Unless otherwise stated in an individual fact, all comparisons are between a Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive vehicle and a conventional gasoline engine vehicle (comparable in size, class, equipment). Applies when the vehicle is driven under identical conditions and identically.
