A few days ago we saw a filtered image of what could be the new Prius , where it did not give much accuracy. Well, now it seems that this image of the model is real, because in the blog Prius was confirmed.
Due to the competition that he is coming to Toyota Prius , one could imagine that the new hybrid was going to do something really new, and not just a redesign as we see in images. One was really disappointed because it was expected something far better and more competitive. And I say this, so it is the model itself and the car I submit Honda , the Insight , a hybrid that will bring.
As we see changes are located in the front, (most of all), where they changed the grill, the optics (more on the Toyotas Europeans), and the bottom. On the side we see a more fluid lines. And at the back we see a larger optics, a new window and trunk lid. But the changes will not only be made on the outside, since the interior will also change as a new screen in the center of the console, a navigation pane, new display functions and many other things.
This will have a new engine, 1.6 liters, with a consumption of 4.9 liters per 100 km city and highway will be 5.22 liters per 100 km. The batteries will Lithium-Ion , where a Japanese company is developing for those that are more efficient. You will also have, as an option, solar roof panels to help power the car, for air conditioning and the electronic system.
The price would be 22,160 U.S. dollars , and is manufactured at Mississippi at 2010 , to increase production by 70% (to 480,000 units per year). Perhaps what we see in the Hall Detroit in January.
