Can the Hybrid Leiling Switch to Pure Fuel Mode?

[Maxine]

Toyota Hybrid Leiling can indeed switch to pure fuel mode. Below are the methods for switching the Toyota Leiling hybrid to pure fuel mode: 1. Method One: The Leiling Hybrid relies solely on the electric motor for driving at low-speed starts, while under normal driving conditions, the engine and motor drive separately. 2. Method Two: During full acceleration, both the engine and motor operate at full capacity simultaneously, while the engine stops working during deceleration. 3. Method Three: The energy generated during braking is also converted into electricity, so the Leiling Hybrid is a hybrid model that does not require external charging. For more details, you can consult your local 4S store.

The hybrid Corolla actually can't manually switch to pure gasoline mode like plug-in hybrids. Toyota's hybrid system is like an intelligent command center, automatically deciding when to use electricity and when to use gasoline. For example, at red lights, the engine completely shuts off and relies solely on electricity, and low-speed maneuvering is also done quietly with electric power. But if you suddenly floor the accelerator or hit the highway, the engine immediately takes over as the main power source, with the motor assisting on the side. When I drove the Corolla Hybrid on long trips, I noticed that even when the gauge showed the engine was continuously working, the motor was subtly helping with every acceleration, making the whole system work together very cleverly.

Recently helped a friend test drive the Leiling Hybrid, and indeed there's no pure gasoline mode switch. However, here's a little trick: when you drive the car at a steady speed above 60km/h while ensuring the hybrid battery has sufficient charge (three bars or more on the display), the engine will basically keep running continuously. But the electric motor still intervenes—you can feel it quietly assisting during acceleration moments and uphill climbs. Toyota's system logic is actually smarter, always keeping the engine operating in its most efficient RPM range. The result is even better fuel efficiency than deliberately using a pure gasoline mode would achieve.

After three years of commuting with the Leiling Hybrid, I've realized that power management is the key. If you want the engine to work harder, use Sport mode + S gear—the throttle response becomes more sensitive, and the engine starts up noticeably more frequently. The other day, when I was in a hurry to get on the highway, I used this trick to keep the engine running the whole time. However, even when climbing at speeds over 80 km/h, the dashboard showed the motor still assisting—the system seems obsessive, never letting the engine bear the entire load alone. That said, fuel consumption always stays below 5L.

I've specifically observed the working condition display of the Leiling Hybrid: when flooring the accelerator to overtake, both the blue and green energy bars max out, indicating the simultaneous operation of both the engine and electric motor. During steady-speed cruising, if the battery has sufficient charge, you can see the engine intermittently shutting down (the needle instantly drops to zero). The scenario closest to pure gasoline driving occurs when cruising on the highway with a full battery, but as soon as there's even a slight change in road elevation, the electric motor immediately jumps in to assist, preventing the engine from entering inefficient ranges. So theoretically, pure gasoline driving exists, but it's hard to fully achieve in real-world road conditions.
