That's a nice ride. The Venza is a bit smaller cargo wise to the RAV4. But it's a sleek looking machine with nice interior options. Still larger than a car inside.

What's funny is I purchased a 2022 Ford Maverick XL hybrid and someone in a Facebook Maverick group asked about it's eCVT transmission. Another commenter said it's borrowed from Toyota and posted a link to this video which brought me here. We almost bought the Toyota Cross but were looking for snall pickup with good fuel economy. It was only $19,995 back in 2022. Now it's $26,995 in 2025 (order banks just opened) and for the forst time the hybrid is available in an AWD. Mine is front wheel drive. I would have bought a hybrid Tacoma if there was such a thing, or the rumored Toyota Stout (smaller pickup than Tacoma) but Toyota hasn't come out with it yet. I will say this, I traded a 2012 Toyota Sienna for my 2022 Ford Maverick and I went from a dream machine minivan that had virtually no issues in 10 years of ownership and 133k miles to a vehicle that has had more than a dozen recalls, a 100k warranty recall on the long block engine, and 2 significant repairs that put the vehicle in the shop for over 2 months. You get what you pay for. The price was outstanding at under $20k for a hybrid truck getting about 38 mpg average over 41k miles BUT the reliability has been atrocious. I hope Toyota will come out with a fuel efficient hybrid truck.

My Chevy Coupe is over twenty years old and it’s the first vehicle I’ve owned. Last year a tornado hit it twice, even though it’s totaled I still drive it. I know it is time for me to upgrade, yet I’ve had some resistance since I’ve been accustomed to this one vehicle that has saved my life on several occasions. I’ve been researching for a year, trying to find a mid-size suv that gives me butterflies. My mother has owned two forerunners and after the tornado totaled hers, she bought a Tundra all decked out, which she loves. I’ve been looking into the RAV4 for a year, it seems to be a contender. If I go that way, it will be because it’s a hybrid. This video gave me more insight with how it works, which I like to know. Thanks for the video to help me understand the components of the vehicle that I am looking into.

"...From the moment the start button is pressed" was something in the heart of every drivers. I also love to see how Toyota evolves the hybrid system until this day, and I am surprised to see that it has first developed from decades ago 💖

[@rickicoughlan8299]

Here in Australia I've been driving a Yaris Cross AWD hybrid since December 2023 and I'd never go back. This car has the best of both worlds, super efficient with fuel (3.2 to 3.3 L/100k in summer and 3.5 to 3.7 L/100k in mid winter) and reducing my fuel use/emissions by around two thirds. I can take it on any road including some pretty sketchy, muddy roads on farms (switching to "trail" mode) where I sometimes go when running bird watching tours and it gets me and my clients there in safety and comfort. In a Toyota, I also enjoy the confidence that I'm driving a super reliable car that will last me for many years and the support of an amazing service team. I can't believe that anyone would look past one of the Toyota hybrid range when looking for a new car.

thanks for these informative videos. It explained that there is still a separate 12volt battery and what it does. I had thought before that the hybrid battery or extra battery pack could do everything the 12volt battery does before and had replaced it. It seems the inverter converter charges the 12volt battery now. It replace a car alternator that use to do that job.

@@ricardolandgrave2532 Our Prius Prime can reach 80mph in EV Mode without the engine starting. Regards engine lubrication with a "cold" engine; if it's required to start, the RPM's are limited for a short period to allow oil to become warm enough to fully protect the engine.

We have a 2024 Prius Prime, our third Prius but first Prime. Why can't we drive it in Hybrid Mode when the Traction Battery is charged (or, partly charged). No matter what I've tried, the gas engine will not engage until the main battery is exhausted. In EV Mode, we have been getting 90+Km on a charge. Yesterday I drove 45.6Km and the Trip Computer indicated a remaining range of 56Km. I'm sure the car would have reached 100Km on battery.

A hybrid car like the Toyota Highlander which I have (and love) does nothing to move forward towards an electrified future.

It's just intentionally deceptive when Toyota says hybrids will help move towards an electrified future.

Excuse me I don't want spoil your Toyota party. Great cars I owed 3 of them. But I have been driving a model 3 Tesla for 5 years. Cost me absolutely nothing in maintenance, just installed new tires. I have received some OTA updates that improved battery range and improved braking. I would never again buy any car with an ICE, and the Hybrid does not help much in gas mileage simply because no one has the time or the opportunity to charge the small battery every day or two. Not only my car is much safer but the running costs are a fraction of any ICE car including hybrids. I recon I save in between 2 or $3.000 a year as electricity cost a small fraction of gas. These are all true facts.

[@fr9714]
