What is the pure electric range of the Corolla Hybrid?
1 Answers
In pure electric mode, the standard Corolla Hybrid version can run for over ten kilometers, while the Corolla Hybrid E+ version can achieve a pure electric range of approximately 55km. Below are the relevant details: 1. About the standard Hybrid: It is a hybrid model that recovers energy during braking, downhill driving, and coasting, and uses the electric motor to assist during starting or acceleration. If the battery is sufficiently charged, it can also operate purely on electricity at low speeds. However, the standard hybrid battery has limited capacity, allowing only a few kilometers of pure electric driving, and the driving speed is not very high. 2. About the Corolla Hybrid E+: The Corolla Hybrid E+ is an upgraded version, essentially a plug-in hybrid. Since it can be charged externally, its larger battery capacity and more powerful pure electric drive system enable a pure electric range of about 55km. The Corolla Hybrid E+ is powered by a 1.8L Atkinson cycle naturally aspirated engine and also uses an E-CVT transmission. The battery capacity is quite large, featuring a 10.5KWh Panasonic battery.
