Self-Charging Hybrid Options

Both the Toyota Yaris and Yaris Cross are offered with two versions of the self-charging hybrid drivetrain. The Hybrid 115 engine is standard, delivering an efficient driving experience—capable of achieving up to 70 mpg in the Yaris, depending on grade. The new Hybrid 130 offers greater agility and power, delivering smooth performance both in the city and on the open road.

Both drivetrains provide the benefits of short-distance EV driving without the need to plug in, as the battery charges automatically whilst driving or braking.
