2. Are There Different Types of Toyota Hybrids?


Yes! Toyota offers both traditional hybrids and plug-in hybrids, each with unique capabilities. Plug-in hybrids like the Prius Prime and RAV4 Prime can be charged externally, allowing for extended electric-only driving, making them ideal for short commutes and eco-conscious drivers.

3. What is the difference between traditional and plug-in hybrid vehicles?


Toyota Hybrid Charging

Traditional hybrids use an electric motor alongside a conventional gas-powered engine, offering more efficiency without requiring charging.

A plug-in hybrid builds on the hybrid’s electric fuel economy advantage by installing a higher-capacity battery -- and depending on the model, a more powerful electric motor -- to extend battery-only driving capabilities.

Conventional hybrids can drive a set distance on electricity alone, and the battery pack stores electric energy captured during normal driving and is replenished by the gas engine, so there is no need to plug in and recharge.
