Embracing a Greener Future: Toyota’s Lineup of Hybrid Cars 

If you’re considering a more eco-friendly mode of transportation, why not treat yourself to a hybrid vehicle from Toyota? Every Toyota hybrid car delivers an efficient driving experience without sacrificing performance. Let’s look closer at the lineup.  

Camry Hybrid 

The Camry Hybrid is the perfect blend of style and efficiency. It has a sleek, aerodynamic design that you can enhance with various wheel designs and other accents, depending on which trim level you choose. Under every Camry Hybrid’s hood sits a 2.5-liter Dynamic Force four-cylinder engine that produces 176 horsepower and 163 pound-feet of torque. This lively engine pairs with an 88-kilowatt electric motor to generate a combined 208 horsepower. With its electronically controlled continuously variable transmission and agile front-wheel drive, the Camry Hybrid handles smoothly, whether taking on traffic or tight turns. 

With the Camry Hybrid, you can select your preferred driving mode, such as Sport Mode, which amplifies throttle response, and Eco Mode, which modifies throttle response for greater efficiency. In EV Mode, the Camry Hybrid can travel short distances powered solely by its electric motor, reducing emissions and noise. A hybrid energy monitor shows you how your car’s hybrid system operates in real-time and can help you develop more efficient driving habits. 

Corolla Hybrid 

The Corolla Hybrid is available in four sophisticated trims, each sure to turn heads. Regardless of your choice, you can take advantage of a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine with an output of 138 horsepower and 105 pound-feet of torque and an electric motor that powers the front wheels.  

If you want on-demand all-wheel drive, you can equip the Corolla Hybrid with a dedicated electric drive motor that automatically supplies power to the rear wheels for improved traction. Like the Camry Hybrid, the Corolla Hybrid has an Eco Mode that adjusts throttle response to maximize efficiency. To make the Corolla Hybrid even more efficient, Toyota equips it with LED headlights that produce more light than conventional headlights while consuming less energy. 

Toyota Crown 

The Toyota Crown combines the raised seating you expect in an SUV with the three-box shape of a traditional sedan. Multispoke wheels and a sporty mesh grille enhance the vehicle’s distinctive design. The Crown XLE and Crown Limited feature a hybrid powertrain that produces 236 horsepower and has a 41 mpg combined rating. If you go with the Crown Platinum, you get Toyota’s 340-horsepower Hybrid MAX system. This impressive powertrain enables the Crown Platinum to go from zero to 60 mph in 5.7 seconds.  

Every Toyota Crown features an all-wheel-drive system for traction and stability in various driving conditions. Equip the Toyota Crown with the available adaptive variable suspension, and it can read the road in real-time to maximize handling. LED daytime running lights and taillights are standard, improving the Crown’s efficiency by using less energy. Quad LED headlights are also available. 

As you can see, Toyota offers an impressive selection of hybrid cars. Stop by your local Toyota dealership to see which model you prefer.
