Plug-in Hybrid EV System
General information 2-3
2
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.

If you lift your foot off the accelerator pedal during driving, a braking force that equivalent to engine braking of a combustion engine vehicle
will be generated. Also, if you shift the select position into “B” (BRAKE) from “D” (DRIVE), effectiveness of the regenerative braking is get-
ting strong. Shift the selector lever into “B” (BRAKE) position according to the driving condition.
 When you depress the brake pedal, the regenerative braking force may be increased.

If a problem occurs in the Plug-in hybrid EV system, or if the ABS and/or the ASC have been activated, the regenerative braking will be
restricted. The foot brake will still operate.

When stronger regenerative braking is generated, the stop lamps will illuminate even when the brake pedal is not depressed.

 Even when the vehicle is driving in EV
drive mode, it may be automatically
changed to series hybrid mode or parallel
hybrid mode in the following cases:
• The plug-in hybrid EV system is too hot
or too cold.
• Quick acceleration is applied.
• The air conditioner is operating.
• The accelerator pedal is depressed hard
on an uphill road or expressway.
• In cold weather
• The vehicle has not been refueled for a
long time.
• The drive battery level is low.
In addition to the above, there are more
cases where EV drive mode is automati-
cally changed to series or parallel hybrid
mode.
 Even while the vehicle is stopped, the
engine may automatically be started in the
following cases:
• The drive battery level is low.
