A hybrid engine combines an energy-efficient electric motor for when you need less power, with a gas engine for when you need more. You get the best of both worlds: exceptional performance and peace of mind.

Ideal for Your Urban Commute
Driving a hybrid feels just like driving a traditional gas-powered vehicle, but can offer the combined benefits of lower tailpipe emissions and improved fuel economy. With seamless transitions between the gas engine and electric motor, city driving can become even more efficient. Hybrid vehicles use a gas-powered engine to operate and regenerative braking to recharge, so they don’t rely on plug-in charging.

Flexibility Comes Standard
Plug-in hybrid vehicles offer the advantage of a larger battery than hybrid vehicles, allowing for longer zero-emissions driving in electric-only mode.* Running multiple errands? The all-electric motor has you covered. Heading away for the weekend? Don’t worry about running out of battery; the gas engine has got you. Simply charge at home so you can confidently plan your trips and enjoy the journey.

Right Power, Right Time
Hybrid technology intuitively switches between gas, electric, or a combination of both. The system automatically engages the electric motor when the gas engine isn't needed. This makes it a great option for stop-and-go urban driving.

Regenerative Braking
No waiting to recharge — your hybrid charges every time you slow down. Regenerative braking captures energy during braking and stores it in the battery, so you’re constantly powering up.

Getting the Most out of Your Hybrid
Beat Range Anxiety
Hybrid vehicles combine an electric motor with a gasoline engine to deliver reliable performance. While your vehicle uses the electric motor whenever conditions allow, it works alongside the gas engine to improve fuel consumption and get you where you’re going for longer trips.
