Toyota hybrids are here in Elgin, near Schaumburg and St. Charles, and they offer a fresh, innovative way of driving. Hybrid vehicles combine traditional gasoline engines with electric motors to dramatically improve fuel efficiency. Over the long term, hybrids save money at the pump and are less harmful to the environment. If you're considering purchasing a Toyota hybrid, then here's what you need to know: they're efficient, they're stylish, and they feature all the latest technology. Besides the Prius family, Toyota offers hybrid versions of the Camry, Avalon, RAV4, and the Highlander. With all of these options and sizes, there's a solution for you!
Super Efficient
Toyota hybrids combine the best of both worlds. Their gasoline engines provide effective power, and the self-charging electric motor delivers clean energy. Together they offer once unheard of fuel economy. For example, the 2016 Prius delivers an awesome EPA-estimated 54 mpg in the city and 50 on the highway. The 2016 Camry Hybrid offers an EPA-estimated 43 mpg city and 39 highway, and when you compare that to the standard model's mileage of 25 and 35, you see the significant difference. All of Toyota's hybrids offer far more efficiency than the standard versions, so they're definitely worth a look.
Modern Style
Toyota designs are always well-received by customers, and the hybrids are no different. The updated Prius features a sleeker, more aerodynamic style, while maintaining its bold presence. The RAV4 and Highlander offer the same athletic styling and spaciousness of the standard models. The Camry and Avalon bring the same elegance and clean lines that Toyota owners have come to expect. Every interior is ergonomically engineered for convenience and ease. Eye-pleasing design on the outside, intuitive on the inside, Toyota hybrids have so much to offer.
Techno Fabulous
The engineers at Toyota stay abreast of cutting edge technology when it comes to function, entertainment, and safety. The hybrid vehicles are absolutely packed with technology options. Whether it's Entune™ Premium Audio for your music, navigation, and apps, or Bluetooth connectivity and USB ports, important tech options are available to you. Some models have Qi-compatible wireless charging for your smartphone and the Head-Up Display for transparently transmitting important information directly to your windshield. The powerful Toyota Safety Sense Package is available on the Prius, Avalon Hybrid, and RAV4 Hybrid, and it bundles features like Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, and others designed to alert you and intervene during dangerous circumstances.
Toyota's Hybrid Options
Prius Family - The Prius has enjoyed a great deal of publicity and celebrity adoration since its introduction in 1997. The latest version of the first mass-produced hybrid sports an updated design, sky-high gas mileage, and futuristic enhancements to the interior like a color Multi-Information Display, one-touch moonroof, and more legroom. Between its fun style, competitive fuel economy, and technology features, the Prius is a compelling hybrid option.
Camry Hybrid - The hybrid version of Toyota's popular Camry sedan, which has been a top-selling four-door midsize sedan for ten years, is a phenomenal alternative. It's comfortable, roomy, and drives like a dream. Toyota updated its exterior last year to make it more engaging with a new body and grille, and the 2016 Camry Hybrid features a more advanced design, lightweight materials, and better aerodynamics. This car is sure to be a winner for another decade!
RAV4 Hybrid - This hybrid option of Toyota's compact SUV is a dynamo with its 194 hp and responsive acceleration. It offers all the cargo room you need, plus seating for five, while still providing all the efficiency of a hybrid. Its EPA-estimated mileage of 34 mpg in the city and 31 on the highway overpowers the standard version, and it is fun to drive. Another great hybrid choice!
Avalon Hybrid - Toyota really comes through with the 2016 Avalon Hybrid. This elegant large sedan is more agile than you might expect, and it brings luxury and high-end touches. Leather seats with French stitching, soft-touch materials, and ambient lighting come standard, immersing you into a place of peaceful comfort. The Avalon Hybrid also features a Smart Key System and has rain-sensing wipers available. A luxury hybrid!
Highlander Hybrid - This iteration of the enormously popular Highlander is an outstanding family option. The design is athletic and aerodynamic, the inside has seating for eight, and the third row seats even recline. The cargo space has enough room for whatever you need to stow, and the 60/40 split third-row seat lets you fold flat and recline if you need to change things up. The Highlander Hybrid is here to stay!
