HOW DOES SELF-CHARGING HYBRID WORK?
Balancing the world’s most efficient petrol engine with a powerful yet compact electric motor, Lexus Self-Charging Hybrids bring together advanced power and efficiency.
Eliminating the need to plug your vehicle in, they conveniently and effortlessly charge whilst you journey for uninterrupted freedom. Plus, the regenerative braking system recovers power when you stop or slow down, storing electricity in the hybrid battery for later use. And as the petrol engine takes over when the battery is empty, you never need to worry about battery range.
Constantly monitoring driving conditions to select the best power source or blend of petrol and electric, your Lexus Self-Charging Hybrid will achieve maximum performance no matter the road. For nimble driving in cities, the fully electric EV mode is ideal. And for moments when extra power is needed, the petrol engine comes into play to smoothly deliver acceleration.
For those who prefer to drive in 100% EV mode at all times and have access to at-home charging, an all-electric vehicle will fit into your lifestyle seamlessly. Find out more about the difference between Lexus all-electric and hybrid vehicles.
