Three reasons to buy a Toyota Prius when you want a hybrid vehicle

Like many consumers, you are concerned about your vehicle’s fuel economy, and like many consumers, you have turned your attention to hybrid vehicles in recent years. If you've come to the conclusion that a hybrid vehicle will meet your needs, all that's left is to find the right model for you. So why not consider the 2021 Toyota Prius? It was the car that launched the hybrid car segment in Canada over 20 years ago and still serves as a benchmark for the entire segment today.


Here are three reasons to consider the new 2021 Toyota Prius


1) It remains one of the most fuel-efficient hybrid cars.


All hybrid cars are fuel efficient, there is no doubt about it. That said, the 2021 Toyota Prius Hybrid has an average fuel consumption of 4.5 liters per 100 kilometers. That’s better than the Honda Clarity, Honda Insight, Hyundai IONIQ, and any mid-size hybrid sedan. The Toyota Prius Prime, on the other hand, can travel nearly 50 kilometers without consuming a single drop of fuel. Again, this is better than the majority of plug-in hybrid cars available today.


2) It has all-wheel drive


The 2021 Toyota Prius is the only hybrid car in its class offered with all-wheel drive. This allows the performance and efficiency of the new Prius to be enjoyed 365 days a year. The e-AWD technology does not affect fuel consumption either, as the Toyota Prius with all-wheel drive averages less than 5.0 liters per 100 kilometers.


3) Lots of cargo space


We often hear that hybrid vehicles offer less cargo space than traditional vehicles, but that’s wrong when it comes to the Toyota Prius. The batteries are positioned so as not to interfere with cargo capacity and the trunk offers nearly 700 liters even with all the seats in place.
