Are There Dealerships in Tampa That Specialize in Toyota Hybrids & EVs?
How Does Toyota Lead the Way with Hybrid & EV Transportation?
In 1997, Toyota introduced one of the best-selling hybrid vehicles of all time: the Toyota Prius. Since the legendary fuel-sipping vehicles arrived on dealership lots, Toyota has led the way with innovative electrified vehicles. The newest Toyota lineup includes several models that are only available with a hybrid powertrain, including the Toyota RAV-4, the Toyota Camry, and the Toyota Crown. Toyota also offers the fully-electric Toyota bZ, and the upcoming C–HR EV.

What Electrified Toyota Vehicles Are Available at Toyota of Tampa Bay?
When you shop for an electrified Toyota at Toyota of Tampa Bay, you’ll find everything from the best-selling Prius to the redesigned bZ. Our friendly sales team can help you choose the model that fits your driving needs and lifestyle, as every Toyota model comes standard with a hybrid powertrain or offers it as an optional feature.
Mild hybrid vehicles use the engine, regenerative braking, and a small battery to power the electric motors. These are the easiest electrified models to drive, and most drivers don’t notice the electric features.
Our inventory also includes plug-in hybrid models like the redesigned Toyota RAV4 and the Prius. Plug-in hybrid models need an external charger to fill the battery, and that battery is big enough to deliver some all-electric range before the gas-powered engine takes over. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles offer the best of both worlds, as drivers get the benefits of electrified transportation with the peace-of-mind that an internal combustion engine provides.
You’ll also find the all-electric Toyota bZ on our lot in Tampa. This vehicle has a large battery that requires external charging. It does not have a gas-powered engine. If you’re curious about driving an EV, the Toyota of Tampa Bay team can share the pros and cons.

If you drive an electric vehicle, you’ll need different services. They don’t have oil, so they don’t need oil changes. Most service visits include battery check-ups as well as inspections for the brakes, tires, and wipers. Electric vehicles have fewer parts, so they require less maintenance - and many EV drivers appreciate that fact.
