Is a Pre-Owned Toyota Prius Still Fuel-Efficient?
Now that electric vehicles are all the rage, the tried-and-true hybrid is getting a little lost in the shuffle. If you’re looking for a car with great fuel economy, you don’t have to necessarily go with an EV; a hybrid is still a great option. You also don’t need to buy a new car; a pre-owned Toyota Prius, for example, will help you save a lot of money on fuel, and St. Cloud Toyota explains how.
Excellent Gas Mileage
While newer vehicles tend to get better when it comes to fuel consumption, even older models can excel in this area. The base 2021 Toyota Prius with front-wheel drive offers 58 MPG in the city and 53 MPG on the highway. Upper trims with all-wheel drive will give you 51 MPG in the city and 47 MPG on the highway.
Other Reasons to Love the Toyota Prius
Fuel efficiency aside, the 2021 Toyota Prius has many other attributes that make it a fantastic car. It has a big interior that accommodates five people. Plus, thanks to its hatchback setup, it has tons of cargo room: up to 27.4 cubic feet of room behind the rear seats and 50.7 cubic feet when they are down.
You will also get many standard tech features, including Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and an infotainment system with a seven-inch touchscreen. Safety is another strong point of this hybrid, as it comes with:
- Forward collision warning
- Forward automatic emergency braking
- Adaptive cruise control
- Lane departure warning
- Automatic high-beam headlights
- Pedestrian and cyclist detection
- Traffic-sign recognition
