Toyota Prius
Ten years have passed since Toyota launched the Prius, a hybrid vehicle whose practical qualities have been preserved over the years. The third generation features more innovations and will soon be available as a plug-in model that can cover 20 km in all-electric mode. The regular Prius’ gas engine is a 134-hp 1.8-litre four-cylinder that operates in tandem with a CVT. Five options packages can be added to the Prius.
