Hybrids offer the best of both worlds. You get the cleaner drive and efficiency of an electric car but also the convenience of petrol.
Toyota are experts in the hybrid car market. Their vehicles are among the best performing in the world and are packed with the latest technology.
We spoke with the team at Alexander Wallace in Elgin to find out why you should consider making a Toyota hybrid your next new car.
Years of expertise in new hybrid cars
Toyota’s first started developing hybrid cars in the 90s and its Prius was the early market leader. Since then its hybrids have been enjoyed by more than 15 million drivers worldwide and each generation has seen them become more efficient, economical and affordable.
Its expertise in the area means customers can have complete confidence in its products. They offer outstanding guarantees, class-leading technology and a cleaner, more fuel-efficient drive.
Keith Geddes of Alexander Wallace says: “Toyota’s been doing hybrids for more than 25 years so they’re obviously very good at it. It has warranties for 15 years on its batteries and 10 years on the cars themselves.”
Toyota technology makes driving cleaner and cheaper
The technology in Toyota’s new hybrid cars means less emissions and it’s estimated the vehicles have saved more than 120m tonnes of CO2 worldwide over the past 23 years.
Of course, that cut in emissions comes from the fact that they can be alternated between running on electric or petrol which also means less money spent at the pump. Motorists using Toyota hybrids can get up to 50% of their driving time on electric. Think of what saving half a tank of fuel on every drive would do for your wallet.
The hybrids are self-charging too, so there’s no extra cost to top up the battery or for installing plug-in points at your home.
Go hybrid for a smoother drive
All of Toyota’s new hybrid cars are automatic, making them easy and smooth to drive. There’s only one gear, so there’s no shifting through them or interruptions of power. It means those weekend jaunts along country roads or long trips on the motorway will be serene and effortless.
