Many off - highway vehicles are left running
at full power whilst idle for much of their life — such as telescopic handlers, heavy excavators and wheeled loaders — potentially wasting fuel with a direct impact on local air quality.
Unavailable to rival, mild hybrid vehicles, EV mode allows the Toyota
full hybrid to run on electric motor
power alone for about 2 kilometres
at speeds of up to about 50 km / h, depending on battery charge and driving conditions,
whilst generating zero CO2, NOX and PM emissions.
