2007 HIGHLANDER HV from July ’06 Prod. (OM48685U)
Toyota hybrid system combines the
power of a gasoline engine and a trac-
tion motor to minimize fuel consump-
tion and emissions.
Depending on driving conditions, the ve-
hicle runs optimally on a combination of
the gasoline engine and traction motor.
Since the gasoline engine charges the hy-
brid battery as needed, the battery does
not have to be charged from an outside
source like an electric vehicle.
Toyota hybrid system performs various
controls depending on the operating
condition. The condition appears on the
multi−information display and/or naviga-
tion system screen (with navigation
system) when the display and/or screen
is in “Energy Monitor” mode. See “Mul-
ti−information display” on page 152 in
Section 1−6 and “Trip information” on
page 271 in Section 1−10 for the opera-
tion of the display and screen.
These are representative examples of
energy monitor displays. Depending on
the condition, the energy monitor dis-
plays the graphics different from those
shown below. Depending on conditions,
the graphic does not reflect the actual
motion of the vehicle.
