MotorWeek | New Engine: Hybrid Battery Pack Recycling
We are all aware of the many environmental benefits of hybrid vehicle technology, but did you know that almost all components can be recycled high voltage hybrid battery.
As the hybrid vehicle technology becomes a standard accepted form of transportation, Toyota believes that non-renewable resources in hybrid high-voltage batteries should be stored and recycled.
To help raise awareness of this, Toyota Motor Corporation Australia launched the hybrid program HV Battery Recycling - and offers cash back when you return or rebate when you return and replace high voltage hybrid battery.
Hybrid technology is an important part of the overall strategy for more sustainable transportation Toyota Toyota launches this initiative as a means to promote and enhance recycling in response to the limitations of global resources When a high voltage hybrid battery is recycled more 98 percent of the battery materials are diverted from landfills, and are eliminated any toxic elements.
Toyota Motor Corporation Australia offers two 100 cash rebate incentives when a high voltage hybrid battery recovered is returned, or a discount of 500 to purchase a high-voltage hybrid battery replacement when you return HV BATTERY RECOVERY, RECYCLING FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.
