Which Toyota Hybrid Vehicle is right for me?

Hybrid Electric Vehicle
Our Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) seamlessly switch between electric and petrol power, choosing the most efficient power combination possible during your journey while also recharging the hybrid battery without the need to be plugged in.

Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle 

A Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) extends your combined driving range and can run on battery power alone for shorter trips. If the hybrid battery is starting to run low, you don't need to stop to recharge. The petrol engine and regenerative braking system seamlessly recharge the hybrid battery.

Why should I consider a Hybrid Vehicle?

By choosing hybrid, you will not only save on petrol costs, but you will reduce your personal CO2 emissions! The running cost of a hybrid is much lower than a petrol or diesel vehicle as you are using electricity alongside fuel. As petrol prices keep rising, the savings of owning a hybrid will only get higher. If you care about your impact on the environment, hybrid vehicles are kinder to the planet, too.
