About the Storm | KL.FM Working in Partnership with Marshall Toyota, Scania Way, Kings Lynn
The car's hybrid powertrain consists of a 1.8 petrol engine that is used in conjunction with two electric motors and a special planetary gearset that functions as a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Under full acceleration, both power sources work together to provide maximum oomph. But under lighter load conditions such as stop-and-go traffic, the Prius alternates between the two, often running on battery power alone. This maximizes the car's fuel economy potential. A regenerative braking system converts energy normally lost as heat into electricity to charge the car's battery pack. | |
