With its hybrid powertrain, the 2024 Toyota Camry Hybrid manages to be both efficient and fun to drive. Are you wondering how it works? We’re diving into all the details at Heritage Toyota Harrisburg.
Hybrid Powertrain
The 2024 Toyota Camry Hybrid is powered by a 2.5-liter Dynamic Force four-cylinder engine, which delivers up to 176 horsepower and 163 lb-ft of torque. It also utilizes an electric motor. Together, they deliver a 208 combined system net horsepower.
How it Works
In a hybrid powertrain, the internal combustion engine is powered by fuel, just like a “regular” vehicle would be. It also uses an electric motor, which draws power from the vehicle’s battery.
Unlike a plug-in hybrid vehicle (or electric vehicle), you don’t plug it in to charge the battery. The battery is charged by your engine as you drive and through regenerative braking.
Regenerative Braking
With regenerative brakes, your vehicle reverses your electric motor that propels your vehicle forward to slow it instead. They feed that energy back into your battery to help improve your range. This not only helps to make your vehicle more efficient, but it helps preserve your brakes longer as well.
Four-Mode Drive Switch
The Toyota Camry Hybrid also features customizable drive modes, including EV, Eco, Normal, and Sport Modes. Eco Mode helps to maximize your fuel efficiency. With EV Mode, the midsize sedan can drive utilizing electric power alone, which eliminates fuel consumption and carbon emissions.
