The Best Features of Toyota Hybrid Cars

The Best Features of Toyota Hybrid Cars

When Toyota introduced the first Prius to the world in 1997 as the world’s first mass-produced hybrid vehicle, it revolutionised the way we thought about environmentally-friendly motoring. Fast forward to today, and Toyota continues to lead the way in hybrid technology, with their status as hybrid pioneers shining an illuminating light towards a cleaner and greener future for the automotive industry.

From the Prius as a starting point, Toyota now has the widest range of hybrid vehicles available on sale in the market today. Toyota’s hybrid range now includes both compact and premium SUVs, family-friendly MPVs, and luxury sedans, with models such as the Yaris Cross Hybrid, Harrier Hybrid, Sienta Hybrid and Camry Hybrid just part of an extensive line-up to offer consumers the greatest variety of hybrid choices.

 

TOP 2 FEATURES AVAILABLE IN ALL TOYOTA HYBRIDS

1. Class-leading Fuel Efficiency

All Toyota hybrid models are full, self-charging hybrids. Hence, they offer class-leading fuel efficiency, which helps to deliver great savings thanks to their low fuel consumption. In addition, Toyota hybrid models also attract a significant $15,000 rebate under the Vehicular Emissions Scheme (VES), being in the A2 band, giving you further savings and more money in your pocket.

 

2. Leading-edge Technology – Toyota Safety Sense (TSS)

Toyota’s latest hybrid models also now come with Toyota Safety Sense, which incorporates driver assistance safety features that truly set the benchmark in its class, and ensure that you are safe and protected while on the road. Some of these features include Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC), which ensures you maintain a safe distance from the car in front, Lane Departure Alert (LDA), which warns the driver when they have unintentionally drifted out of lane, and Pre-Collision System (PCS), which can detect the possibility of an impending collision by applying the brake assistance system to slow down or stop the vehicle.

 

Today, a Toyota hybrid model represents more than just fuel savings and eco-friendliness. Here we take a look at the best features of some of Toyota’s hybrid cars, and why they are the perfect choice that fits right into your lifestyle.

TOYOTA HARRIER HYBRID  FOR SOMEONE WHO DOESN’T WANT TO COMPROMISE CLASS AND SPORTINESS

1. Powerful yet Efficient Drivetrain

The Harrier comes with a 2.5-litre Dynamic Force Engine with Hybrid Synergy Drive, making it one of the world’s most thermal efficient engines in production today, with 41% thermal efficiency. This means that the Harrier Hybrid offers a truly powerful yet fuel-efficient drive.

2. Stylish Exterior Design

The Harrier’s premium positioning gives it a feel of a car from a class above. Its slim LED lights, raked windscreen and eyecatching rear tail-light bar is guaranteed to turn heads, and helps the Harrier Hybrid earn major style points.

3. Panoramic Roof with Electrochromatic Glass (Luxury Variant only)

The Harrier Hybrid features a unique panoramic roof with electro-chromatic glass, which lets in plenty of sunlight on sunny days if you desire, and darkens instantly at the touch of a button when you need some shade. It also has a cool frosted effect that adds on the style.

4. Digital Rear View Mirror (Luxury Variant only)

Available on the Luxury variant is a nifty digital rear view mirror that uses a rear mounted camera to show you what’s behind you, in crystal clear definition.
