Transformed by a fresh design, a higher EPA fuel-economy, new features, additional options, and increased power and capability, the 2010 Toyota Prius is the hybrid you don't want to overlook. This 4-door hatchback seats up to five passengers comfortably, allowing you the space and mobility to get where you need to go with comfort and ease. With such a thorough combination of style, efficiency, and cabin room, it is no wonder that the Prius has been rated top of its class and is only getting better in design and prowess as the years go on.
The Prius is a gas/electric hybrid that runs with the combination of a 4-cylinder engine, a battery-powered electric motor, as well as a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). This unique Toyota hybrid system allows the Prius to operate using either one or both of its power sources. This balances acceleration and fuel economy, making for a ride that is not only smooth and enjoyable, but cost efficient as well. For the above reasons among many others, the benefits of the 2010 Toyota Prius are seemingly endless.
The Toyota Prius of 2010 is available in four separate trim options, including the II, the III, the IV, and the V. All of these trim options are renowned for their performance. With the just-added additional features of adjustable-height driver seats, telescopic steering columns, heated front seats, curtain side airbags, and more, the comfort and amenity provided to driver and passenger alike is unparalleled by Prius models of previous years. The Prius even borrows many features left exclusively to Toyota's Lexus division, such as Lane Keep Assist with lane-departure warning and Intelligent Parking Assist that provides hands-free parallel parking. With such a wide variety of perks, the 2010 Prius is revolutionizing its appeal in the hybrid world. Test drive a 2010 Prius at your local Toyota dealer today and experience superior hybrid driving like never before.
