Oil electric hybrid Toyota Highlander

This Electric Car uses a traditional 2.5-liter naturally aspirated engine and a dual motor hybrid system, with a maximum system power of 245 horsepower. 

The design concept of Toyota's hybrid system is not really pursuing the highest performance, and matching the e-CVT gearbox makes the whole vehicle sporty. However, after all, the hybrid system's motor is still there, so the 100 km/h time of 8.3 seconds may not seem very strong, but the acceleration in the early stage is also relatively fast. According to foreign media testing, Its maximum speed can reach 180 kilometers per hour, and in pure Electric SUV Car mode, the maximum speed is 130 kilometers per hour.

The AWD-i system actually transfers all power to the front wheels, but when necessary, 80% of the power can be transferred to the rear axle. Therefore, it can be said that the hybrid version of the Highlander has more guaranteed off-road performance. However, after all, the Toyota Highlander is still a large square box Electric SUV Car. With the addition of a hybrid system, its self weight reaches 2050 kilograms. If fully loaded, the self weight can easily exceed 2.5 tons, so performance should not be pursued too much.
