Take Fuel Efficiency to New Levels With a New Toyota Prius

The subject of fuel efficiency has been a hot topic for some time, and many carmakers are now scrambling to fill this need by retooling their facilities and designing hybrid vehicles. Thankfully, the carmakers at Toyota are far ahead in this game. The iconic Toyota Prius has been a leader in the hybrid electric market for years, and the new generation of hybrid vehicles does the brand proud. The new Prius and the new Toyota Prius Prime build on the fuel efficiency of old with new capabilities and technologies that push the envelope around Newton, NJ.

The New Toyota Prius Performs Well Under the Hood

The new Toyota Prius is a virtuoso in the performance department. It offers two separate motors that work together to provide power, performance, and fuel efficiency. The gas-powered side of the hybrid system is a four-cylinder, 1.8-liter dual overhead cam motor. This 16-valve engine is made of aluminum for extra strength and lighter weight.

On the electric side of things, the new Toyota Prius features an AC, permanent magnet synchronous motor backed up by a magnetless rear motor. Together, the system brings a combined 121 horsepower to the table, while also achieving nearly 60 mpg on average. With fuel tanks that hold 10 to 11 gallons of fuel, it gives the Toyota Prius an average range of around 600 miles around Newton, NJ.

The Prius Prime Shines in the Safety Department

Another distinguished member of the Toyota hybrid family is the Toyota Prius Prime. The Prius Prime is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), and this allows future owners to plug in and charge up their cars at any time. At the same time, the Prime also features the legendary Prius Hybrid gas motor that allows for continuous travel if charging isn't possible. Plus, the Prime also has an All-electric Mode that delivers up to 25 miles of emissions-free driving range.

The Prius and the Prius Prime also feature many innovative Toyota safety systems. The safety coverage begins with Toyota's vehicle stability assistance systems. These proprietary technologies include Traction Control, Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control, and the Star Safety System. Other winners include Electronic Brake Force Distribution, Brake Assist, Smart Stop Technology, and Toyota's Advanced Airbag System.
