Toyota believes in different mobility solutions for different mobility needs. Therefore, our priority is in investing in electrified technologies making it easier than ever to go electric. For over 20 years, we have been leading the movement towards a sustainable future, with more options of Electrified Vehicles and powertrains than ever.
Have you ever been interested in Electrified Vehicles but unsure of which one is right for you? Electrified Vehicles can offer cutting-edge innovation with the ability to fit seamlessly in your life. Toyota’s full Electrified lineup of SUVs, sedans and trucks have the same dependability you’ve come to expect, so you can make the most out of any trip.
Combining the strength of two power sources, the Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) uses a gas engine and an electric motor. The vehicle has the ability to automatically choose the best blend of power. Hybrid Electric Vehicles have the added convenience of not having to be plugged in to charge. In the Toyota Hybrid lineup, HEVs have the largest range that includes the Prius, Corolla Hybrid, Camry Hybrid, Crown, Corolla Cross Hybrid, RAV4 Hybrid, Venza, Highlander Hybrid, Grand Highlander Hybrid, Land Cruiser, Sequoia, Sienna, Tacoma Hybrid, and Tundra Hybrid.
Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) like the Prius Plug-in Hybrid or RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid are very similar to Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV), with the addition of a larger battery which allows you longer range and power than a regular HEV would use. To charge a Plug-in Hybrid Vehicle just plug it in, at home, at work, or at any electric vehicle public charging station.
Well, you can say goodbye to gas! Battery Electric vehicles (BEV) like the bZ4X electric SUV run on electricity alone, with no exhaust coming from the tailpipe. A large onboard battery contains all the electricity needed to power these vehicles; however, you must charge the battery to use its full EV range.
Now that we know the differences between each type of Electrified Vehicle, let’s compare them with each other to find the best option for you.
A Hybrid car, SUV or truck is a great option for versatility. For starters, it reduces fuel costs all while lowering emissions. By having two sources of power working together, you never have to stop to plug-in. A BEV on the other hand, offers smooth performance, emission-free driving, a quiet ride, and instant acceleration. You will save on fuel costs and with the added bonus of Canadian government EV incentives and rebates through the iZEV program.
Toyota Hybrids offer optimal performance, require no additional maintenance than Toyota’s gas-powered vehicles and reduced emissions of greenhouse gases. The powertrains on HEVs work automatically, so no need to change anything about the way you drive or refuel. The main difference between a Hybrid and a Plug-in Hybrid is two sources of power work together in a PHEV, providing all the aspects of a Hybrid Vehicle with the added inclusion of an extended CO2 emissions-free electric-only driving range.
PHEVs offer enhanced driving performance and the ability to travel faster and further in EV-mode than conventional Hybrid Vehicles. BEVs must be plugged in to achieve a full charge. For those looking to save on gas and reduce their carbon footprint, BEV’s are a great option. You can also avoid added maintenance as there are less parts in these vehicles as they don’t contain an engine or transmission.
Toyota is committed to the vision of sustainability by having different electrified solutions for every mobility need. Our continued goal is to offer Electrified Vehicles that effortlessly fit into your life, providing the same confidence and reliability drivers have experienced for over two decades. With our breadth of lineup, you can rest assured there is an electric journey for you.
With raising gas prices, many drivers are looking to make the switch to electric and gain independence from fully relying on fuel. However, with so many Electrified Vehicles in the Toyota lineup, how do you choose one that fits your lifestyle? With an array of Electrified SUVs, sedans and trucks, you can now choose from 15 unique models including the Prius, Prius Plug-In Hybrid, Corolla Hybrid, Camry Hybrid, Mirai, Crown, bZ4X, Corolla Cross Hybrid, RAV4 Hybrid, RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid, Venza, Highlander Hybrid, Sequoia, Sienna, and Tundra Hybrid.
