Toyota brought an updated TS040 HYBRID for the 2015 season with an expectation for higher performances from rival teams. Although its combined power output remained at 1000 horsepower and the car remained in the 6MJ hybrid category, the super-capacitor storage was more efficient. The regulations allow the use of up to 8MJ of recovered energy, but that increased capacity brings additional weight which would compromise speed. Overall performance of the TS040 HYBRID powertrain fell short of its rivals and this eventually led to Toyota finishing third in the standings, ending the season with two podiums in Silverstone and Bahrain.
