In addition, the new power system in hybrid technology is no more improvement.
1. 1.8L engine brings more power
Third-generation Toyota Prius equipped with 1.8L 4 cylinder Atkinson cycle engine, the 1.5L engine to replace the old models, maximum power is 98 horsepower, 22 horsepower increase over the old models, the torque is to 142Nm, an increase over the old models 31Nm, motor vehicle with the maximum power the power to 134 horsepower, low-speed torque further enhanced when it also means low access to better fuel economy. 0-100km / h acceleration time of just 9.8 seconds.
2. Re-design of the Hybrid Synergy Drive hybrid electric drive system collaboration
The motor output power to further improve, while achieving high-voltage power system, and then to improve energy efficiency. Toyota ’s THS full hybrid drive system has three modes, including operation of the engine-driven vehicles alone, battery-driven vehicles alone, and three modes of interaction between the two. The system can provide different driving conditions to optimize the driving scheme.
3. Power system is more lightweight
In the new hybrid system, all components are using a lightweight design. Converter, engine and power control unit smaller and the corresponding weight than the previous generation to reduce by 20%.
