Overview
Now the Toyota Prius hybrid is into its third generation and, as you?d expect, it gets better and better. The practical, liveable Prius balances its premium pricing with astonishing 3.9l/100km fuel economy and a reasonable turn of performance. The clever CVT hybrid drive now uses a more efficient, bigger petrol engine working in with two electric motors so seamlessly it's hard to pick from inside the cabin. The essentially Corolla-size Prius is quite accommodating and well kitted out with stability control, seven airbags, 15-inch alloys, keyless entry/start, head-up display and eight-speaker audio.
