The Prius was ground-breaking when it was first launched in the UK. Now, 10 years later the Prius is in its 3rd Generation and keeps on getting better.
The 2012 Prius maintains its multi-award-winning Hybrid Synergy Drive system which delivers extraordinary fuel economy, low emissions and a smooth driving experience that's simply unmatched by any other car maker.
With a powerful 1.8 litre petrol engine, there's top-end power for motorways and enough fuel in the tank to take you 700 miles without refuelling. And thanks to the electric motor, powered by a battery that's almost continuously charged by the petrol engine, you have low fuel consumption in the stop-start conditions of city and suburban driving.
Like all Toyota Hybrids - the Prius switches between petrol and electric, effortlessly and almost imperceptibly, to give you a smooth, economical and above all pleasurable driving experience at all times.
But the new Prius isn't about trying to wow you with technology and gizmos. Instead, it's about anticipating your needs, and offering solutions that not only work, but also delight.
For example, the Head-Up display is an elegant answer to that age old-problem of taking your eyes off the road to check your speed. Instead this is projected onto the base of the windscreen.
Another unique feature is Touch Tracer, which makes it easy to use wheel-mounted switches without looking down. All it takes is a touch of your thumb and an image of the button cluster appears in the high-mounted display, comfortably within view.
