The first mass-produced hybrid car in the world, the „Toyota PRIUS“, which appeared in 1997, opened up a new perspective on driving. Full of advanced design solutions and equipped with modern technologies, today it takes another step forward. With quicker responses, more efficiency, better economy, and even quieter performance than before, the new „Prius“ presents yet another variation of the exceptional „Toyota“ hybrid car formula.
The new generation „Toyota PRIUS“ with an improved hybrid system offers a new driving experience. The battery regenerates more electrical energy, allowing the car to drive smoothly and quietly in electric mode for longer periods. The seamless switching between the electric and gasoline engines ensures easy and dynamic acceleration when needed. The new transmission and improved sound insulation result in minimal noise levels, allowing one to enjoy a particularly quiet environment.
The „Prius“ is built on the new „Toyota“ platform TNGA (Toyota New Global Architecture), fundamentally changing the appearance, driving, and handling characteristics of the new generation of „Toyota“ cars being constructed on it. This platform allows for a lower center of gravity, a sturdier body structure, and an improved suspension, therefore this hybrid sets new standards for driving dynamics.
