Toyota strives to build vehicles to match customer interest and thus they typically are built with popular options and option packages. Not all options/packages are available separately and some may not be available in all regions of the country. If you would prefer a vehicle with no or different options, contact your dealer to check for current availability or the possibility of placing a special order.
Some vehicles are shown with available equipment. Seatbelts should be worn at all times. For details on vehicle specifications, standard features and available equipment in your area, contact your Toyota dealer. A vehicle with particular equipment may not be available at the dealership. Ask your Toyota dealer to help locate a specifically equipped vehicle.
The five-seater plug-in Prius will be one of 10 hybrids sold by Toyota by the year 2012. It uses a 1.8-litre petrol engine and electric motors for its drivetrain. During slow city driving it would normally run just the electric power from the lithium-ion battery while the petrol engine kicks in during higher speed driving situations.Toyota is preparing itself for a major showdown with fellow Japanese automaker Honda over the two companies' hybrid vehicles. When the new 2010 Toyota Prius is launched it will achieve 49 miles per gallon on the highway and 50 mpg in the city. That is an average of about 50mpg according to Toyota officials quoted by Detnews. These figures grossly underestimate the 65 mpg US that was reported last month as being the figure attained from initial testing.
