Toyota large-scale demonstration of Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles

In a world of increasing green house gases and global warming, Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles (PHV’s) appear to be one of the key technologies moving ahead, that hold genuine promise of a reduced carbon footprint. In a partnership between EDF and Toyota this promise looks even more optimistic. Today they announced a major step forward in their joint road-trials in France, involving the release of about 100 PHVs equipped with lithium-ion batteries and an innovative charging infrastructure.

The wrap
The PHV uses Toyota’s hybrid technology but has the added benefit that its battery can be recharged using a standard electrical plug. The PHV can thus be driven as an electric vehicle for short distances, resulting in a silent, zero CO2 emissions drive. For longer distances, the PHV works as a conventional hybrid vehicle.
