Toyota Hybrid System (THS)

The hybrid system is a type of powertrain that uses a combination of two types of motive forces, such as an engine and a motor (MG2). This system is characterized by its skillful use of two types of motive forces according to the driving conditions. It maximizes the strengths of each of the motive forces and complements their weaknesses. Thus, it can achieve a highly responsive, dynamic performance, as well as a dramatic reduction in fuel consumption and exhaust gas emissions. The THS can be broadly divided into two systems: the series hybrid system, and the parallel hybrid system.
