Plug-in Hybrid EV System
What is the Plug-in Hybrid EV System?
— In the EV Drive mode, the vehicle is driven only by the
electric motors, just like an electric vehicle, over a certain
distance, using the electricity stored in the drive battery.
Once the drive battery charge is low or when powerful
acceleration is needed, the vehicle operates in the Series
Hybrid mode.
When high-speed driving is needed, the vehicle is driven
by the engine in the Parallel Hybrid mode.
— The high-performance motors greatly reduce noise and
vibration while driving and provide powerful acceleration.
EV Drive MODE
The vehicle is driven only
by the motors using the
electricity stored in the
drive battery.

— The regenerative brake system automatically starts to
charge the drive battery when the accelerator pedal is
released.
— The battery can be charged via the AC220–240 V charge
port. If your vehicle has an optional quick charge port, the
battery can be charged at a CHAdeMO* charging station.
*CHAdeMO is a quick charging standard for EVs that is
promoted by Japan for adoption as an international standard.
Series Hybrid Mode
Once the drive battery level is
low or when powerful thrust is
required such as during rapid
acceleration or hill climbing,
the vehicle is driven only by
the motors using engine-
generated electricity.
Parallel Hybrid Mode
In high-speed driving when
the engine runs efficiently,
the vehicle is driven by the
engine and is assisted by
the motors.
Regenerative Brake
System
Motion energy is converted
into electric energy using the
motor as a power generator.
Then a braking force generates
and converted electric energy
will be charged to the drive
battery.
The intensity of regenerative
brake can be selected from
among two levels using the
selector lever.
The intensity can be selected
from among six levels using
the paddles.
If a large regenerative braking
force is applied by using the
selector lever or the regenerative
braking level selector (paddle),
the brake lamps will be
automatically illuminated.
