At the heart of our strategy is Hybrid Synergy Drive, a full hybrid technology that we have been developing for many years.

Toyota’s full hybrid drive train first appeared in 1997 with the debut of the Toyota Prius... 13 years later and this system now powers over 2.3 million vehicles world-wide.

The word hybrid simply means a combination of two or more things; in the case of a Toyota this means two sources of power. An electric motor and a combustion engine.
