Gasoline engine
Electric motor (traction motor)
The plug-in hybrid system is a system excellent in both econom-
ical efficiency of electric vehicles and practicality of hybrid vehi-
cles.
● EV driving can be performed using electricity charged from an
external power source.
*
● If the amount of electricity remaining in the hybrid battery (traction
battery) becomes low, the vehicle is automatically controlled in
such a way that it can be driven as a hybrid vehicle through the
joint use of the gasoline engine.
*: The EV driving range will vary in accordance with conditions such as
vehicle speed, the amount of charge remaining in the hybrid battery
(traction battery) and the usage of the air conditioning system. The gaso-
line engine may also be used simultaneously in accordance with driving
conditions.
