Cost Comparison for a New Toyota Prius – Details

Toyota has continued to streamline the design of its ever popular hybrid vehicles. The new Prius is 2.4 inches longer and nearly an inch lower, giving it a sleek aerodynamic shape that helps increase its famous fuel efficiency. The Prius Two Eco is an improvement on its predecessors with a groundbreaking increase in estimated gas mileage of 58 mpg on the highway and 53 mpg in the city. This is due to a Li-ion battery and a kit for tire inflation instead of a spare tire, that reduces the weight of the Eco by 65 pounds from the Prius Two.

The Prius Two has better looks, too. With an increased angle to the windshield, a low back end and a higher front end, the vehicle is sportier. In fact, it’s so sleek it now has a spoiler.
