Keeping the plug-in hybrid's gasoline engine off and using EV Mode results in more confident traction in low-speed trail driving, we found.

The company plans to spend $13.5 billion on battery development through 2030, reducing battery cost per vehicle by 50% over the Toyota bZ4X due in 2022.

Even up to 2050, hybrids may play a significant part of Toyota's product mix, even as Toyota pulls forward timelines for cutting manufacturing CO2.

Those needing a wheelchair-accessible van need not settle for gas-guzzling vans; BraunAbility put 55,000 hours into the conversion of the 36-mpg Sienna.

Toyota sees potential in hydrogen internal-combustion engines as part of a future racing program—perhaps to boost interest in its plans for a hydrogen economy.

The concept, which kicks off a new line of EVs, has dual-motor all-wheel drive developed with Subaru, and a solar recharging system.

The RAV4 Prime is finding its way to driveways in record time, and demand likely exceeds supply for the popular 42-mile PHEV.

Teammate "Advanced Drive" appears to offer some of the functionality of Navigate on Autopilot, with a more conservative approach than Tesla.

Modules based on the fuel-cell system from the Mirai can be packaged in a plug-and-play solution for some very large vehicles.

We took a pair of long road trips in the 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime to find out if its charge mode might actually be more fuel efficient, and just how much fuel economy driving in Sport vs. Eco mode will cost you.

The 2021 Mirai moves to a rear-wheel drive platform borrowed from Lexus and gets improvements to the fuel cell stack, the interior, and the tech throughout.

The Venza earns 40 mpg city, 37 highway, and occupies a midpoint between Toyota best-sellers such as the RAV4 Hybrid, Camry Hybrid, and Avalon Hybrid.

Toyota could emerge as a serious contender with electric vehicles if it can manage to scale up its own battery design.
