the most powerful hybrid in its segment
Strong hybrid E-Tech 160 is the most powerful hybrid in its segment. It combines a 1.8 L petrol engine with two electric motors and a 1.4 kWh battery, for up to 80% electric driving in the city¹ and up to 29% fuel savings** in urban conditions².
strong hybrid E-Tech driving modes
Strong hybrid E-Tech switches seamlessly between six modes, automatically choosing the most efficient one for every moment of your drive.
all electric
at start-up and in smooth city driving
the petrol engine switches off and the electric motor drives the wheels giving a quiet, smooth electric driving, using no fuel at all
petrol only
efficient cruising over long distances
at steady speeds on main roads and highways, the petrol engine drives the wheels while the electric motor rests
series-parallel
when you accelerate hard or overtake
the petrol engine and electric motor drive the wheels together giving a full system power for a more dynamic drive
series
in smooth driving below 80 km/h
the petrol engine generates electricity to power the electric motor giving the feel of electric driving, with minimal fuel use
regen
when you brake or lift off the accelerator
the electric motor turns the car's momentum into electricity to recharge the battery; putting energy back into the battery on slowdown.
charging via engine
when the battery needs topping up, including at traffic lights
the petrol engine runs at its most efficient speed to recharge the battery; keeping it ready for electric driving with optimised fuel use
