A
hybrid powertrain is a combination of two different types of power systems used to move a vehicle. It typically consists of an internal combustion engine (like a regular car) and an electric motor. This setup allows the vehicle to use both gas and electricity as fuel sources, resulting in improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.

horsepower hybrid powertrain combining a 3.5 - liter V6 with electric motors and a continuously variable transmission.
So, you can expect the well known
hybrid powertrain setup and the ES 350 will be powered by a 3.5 - liter V6 unit but the output may not be same.
Interestingly enough, a hybrid version will remain in the Japanese market and be paired with a 1.5
L hybrid powertrain that will provide drivers on the island around 200 horsepower.
Also the
updated hybrid powertrain lets the gas engine shut off at higher speeds, so short cruises on the highway can use a minimum of gasoline during these periods.
Inside, there is a unique supervision instrument cluster (with added
hybrid powertrain information), plus a new centre stack, new door trim and new seat trim.
The plug - in
hybrid powertrain sends its power to the ground via third - generation hybrid transmission that has space for the converter, clutch and electric motor.

innovative hybrid powertrain and a chassis tuned for on - road refinement, the production version should have rivals beaten for economy, emissions and driving dynamics.
Kia revealed a new mild
hybrid powertrain as well as its new 7 - speed DCT at the Geneva Motor Show.
The source suggests the vehicle may have have a
mild hybrid powertrain with up to 400 hp and 600 Nm (sent to all four wheels)- most of that power will apparently come from a revised 2.0 - liter EcoBoost turbo engine.
