The Plug-in Hybrid EV system on this vehi-
cle will automatically select an optimum driv-
ing mode from “EV drive mode”, “Series
hybrid mode” and “Parallel hybrid mode”
according to the remaining power in the main
drive lithium-ion battery and/or driving con-
ditions.
The vehicle is designed to typically use the
EV drive mode which drives the vehicle as an
electric vehicle by using only electrical power
stored in the main drive lithium-ion battery.
However, when driving with the Series
hybrid mode or the Parallel hybrid mode is
required, the EV drive mode will automati-
cally be switched to the Series hybrid mode
or the Parallel hybrid mode.
The main drive lithium-ion battery can be
charged using an EV charging device com-
patible with your vehicle. For details, refer to
“Charging” on page 3-17.
The regenerative braking described in this
section will also charge the main drive lith-
ium-ion battery when the accelerator pedal is
released while the vehicle is moving.
The vehicle is driven only by electric
motors using the electric power stored in
the main drive lithium-ion battery.
The EV drive mode will automatically be
switched to the Series hybrid mode or the
Parallel hybrid mode depending on the
remaining power in the main drive lith-
ium-ion battery and/or driving conditions,
such as a vehicle speed and operation of
the air conditioner.
If you want to drive the vehicle without
starting the engine as much as possible,
make the switch to the EV priority mode
by pressing the EV switch.
Refer to “EV switch” on page 5-62.
The distance you can drive the vehicle
(cruising range) using the EV drive mode
varies depending on the remaining power
in the main drive lithium-ion battery
and/or driving conditions, such as a vehi-
cle speed and operation of the air condi-
tioner.
An estimated cruising range using the EV
drive mode can be shown in the informa-
tion screen. Refer to “EV cruising range
display/Total cruising range display” on
page 5-140.
Driving at a moderate speed and avoiding
rapid acceleration will help obtain longer
cruising range using the EV drive mode.
Rapid and repeated accelerations and
decelerations consumes more electric
power from the main drive lithium-ion
battery and may reduce the cruising range
using the EV drive mode.
The electric power in the main drive lith-
ium-ion battery can be reserved in order
to later drive the vehicle using the EV
drive mode in a specific area. Refer to
“Battery save mode switch” on page 5-65.
The vehicle is driven by the motors only
using the electricity generated by the
engine. This mode is used when the
remaining power in the main drive lith-
ium-ion battery becomes low, when quick
acceleration is required, or when more
propulsion power is required like climb-
ing a hill.

NOTE
While driving the Series hybrid mode, the
engine malfunction diagnostic system may
operate.
If this system operates, the engine sound will
decrease. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
