My mother's non-hybrid Toyota Camry is also a PZEV. I'm told that this means that some of the time while the vehicle is running, the engine's fuel supply is cut off completely. For non-hybrid vehicles, this could only be while coasting at speed with the throttle closed. I guess the automatic transmission must be specially designed to keep the engine turning over with the torque input from the wheels.
