Toyota hybrid system combines the
power of an engine and a traction mo-
tor to minimize fuel consumption and
emissions.
Depending on driving conditions, the ve-
hicle runs optimally on a combination of
the engine and traction motor.
Since the engine charges the hybrid bat-
tery as needed, the battery does not have
to be charged from an outside source like
an electric vehicle.In your hybrid vehicle, there are several
indicators that show different aspects
of fuel consumption:
Instrument cluster indicators
1. Current fuel consumption (fuel economy
meter):
See “Fuel economy meter” in Section
1−6 on page 133.
2. Average fuel consumption after refuel- ing (“TANK AVG”):
See “—Outside temperature and cruise
information” in Section 1 −6 on page
135.
3. Average fuel consumption after the hy- brid system is turned on (“ECO DRIVE
LEVEL”):
See “—Outside temperature and cruise
information” in Section 1 −6 on page
135.
