Employing synchronous A/C motor for compact packaging, light weight and high efficiency

HYBRID SYNERGY DRIVE uses synchronous A/C motors, which can efficiently produce strong torque up into the high revolution ranges and provide freedom to control the motors revolutions and torque.

Toyota has also succeeded in making the electric motors compact, light-weight and very efficient, resulting in smoother starting/acceleration.

• 3-phase A/C.
• Optimum control of the angle between rotating magnetic field and rotor magnets.
• Permanent rotor magnets positioned in the ideal V-figure configuration.
