Long-Term Savings

Hybrid models are equipped with both an electric motor and a gas-powered engine. These two work together to help your Toyota run as efficiently as possible. As a result, you will spend less money on fuel in the long run. As for all-electric vehicles, you don’t need to provide them with the same consistent car maintenance as you do with gas-powered vehicles. After all, EVs don’t require oil changes or engine upkeep.

Toyota Hybrid and All-Electric FAQs

Is an electric vehicle more expensive than a gas-powered vehicle?

When deciding whether to buy a gas-powered, hybrid or electric Toyota model, we recommend looking at the costs beyond the MSRP, including those you’ll accrue throughout ownership. When compared to a gas-powered car, you’ll have reduced fuel costs with a hybrid model, and with an EV, you’ll enjoy lower maintenance costs and lower operating expenses over time.

What is regenerative braking?

Toyota hybrid and electric vehicles come with regenerative braking, a feature which helps keep energy from being wasted. When the brakes are engaged, the kinetic energy produced from braking is turned into electricity that is sent to the battery. This helps keep your battery charged and improves range and efficiency over time.

How and where do I charge my car?

It’s actually easy to charge your electric vehicle. You can charge your electric Toyota at home or on the go. Toyota has at-home charging stations available to install and there are thousands of public charging stations available (and more on the way!). No matter where your next adventure takes you, drive with confidence that you’ll get where you need to go.

How long does it take to charge my car’s battery?

There are plenty of factors that can affect your vehicle’s charge time, including the outdoor temperature, the battery’s temperature, charging equipment, battery health, etc. We recommend you review your vehicle’s technical specifications for specific charging times.

What’s the warranty on my new Toyota hybrid or all-electric vehicle?

Your new Toyota model will come with several incredible warranties. Each Toyota has a Basic Warranty of 36 months/36,000 miles and a Powertrain Warranty of 60 months/60,000 miles.2 Toyota hybrid models come with a Hybrid Systems warranty of 96 months/100,000 miles3 and a Hybrid Battery warranty for 120 months/150,000 miles.4
