Toyota Planning To Add Plug-In Hybrids With Over 200km Of Battery Range
Toyota says this will be achieved “by increasing battery efficiency to extend the range, we will reposition PHEVs as “the practical BEV” and will work harder on developing this as another BEV option.”
The newly introduced Prius has a 13.6kWh battery pack and Toyota says that it has a driving distance of 87 km with 19-inch tires and 105 km with 17-inch tires in electric mode, so the next gen PHEVs will see a big an improvement from this current Prius. There could be case for these longer range plug-in hybrid vehicles, especially in developing countries where the charging infrastructure is not yet widespread. Home charging of these types of 37.6kWh plug-in hybrids would be enough for daily needs, but for longer highway trips, plug-in hybrids could be quite useful as well. In most African countries, for example, there aren’t many DC fast charging stations yet on the major highways.
