With Toyota's drive towards a lower emission future, we’ve created a simple guide to help you manage your range and show what charging options you have for your new plug-in hybrid or electric vehicle.
Toyota offer 4 types of electrified engines, each with different charging and range characteristics.
Such as our Yaris Hybrid
Charging: none required, self-charging battery
Range: determined by fuel, not battery capacity
Such as our RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid
Charging: home socket or charger & fast public charger
Range: up to 46 miles* on battery alone but will use the petrol engine to recharge the battery on the move
Such as our All-New Toyota bZ4X
Charging: home socket or charger & fast or rapid public charger
Range: up to 318 miles*
Such as our Mirai
Charging: none required, powered by hydrogen
Range: up to 400 miles^ on a full tank of hydrogen

Discover how we can support charging your electric vehicle when out and about with the Toyota Charging Network.
You will use a different cable to plug in depending on how you charge your vehicle. When you buy a Toyota electric vehicle, two cables will be included with the vehicle:
When you use a public rapid charger to charge your electric vehicle, the charger will have a cable fitted already, and you simply need to plug it into your vehicle.
When you make the move to electric, it is important to think about how and when you will charge your vehicle.
We recommend that you take every opportunity to charge your vehicle – at home, or on trips out, if the car is parked, it is beneficial to charge when you can rather than drive until the battery is empty.
This not only uses your time effectively, it is best for battery life too.
The type of vehicle and the size of the battery determines the range of an electric vehicle. In addition to this, as with any vehicle, however it is powered, the range also depends on a number of factors such as weather and driving style.
The maximum range of our electric vehicles is impressive, for example, our All-New, All-Electric bZ4X has a range of up to 318 miles*.
