The engine is also used by the Camry hybrid (the model most likely to come to India). The four-cylinder engine and electric motor send their combined power to the wheels through a CVT gearbox which comes with a Sport mode. In Sport mode, the CVT simulates six gears and the electric boost from the motor is increased thus aiding acceleration.
