NOW we have a low-emission, low fuel consumption hybrid car that makes sense. Almost amazing sense, when you consider that the latest Toyota Prius is priced lower at entry level than the original, yet offers more of everything including passenger space, fuel economy and performance. The Toyota petrol-electric hybrid is a thoroughly useable car of the future that is not about to scare anybody with its functionality and general on-road get up and go. If the fuel economy figures in real-world use prove slightly less than staggeringly good, they are still much better than anything else with the Prius’ levels of performance and are accompanied by equal reductions in exhaust emissions. It’s a taste of the future and it’s available at your local Toyota dealer right now.
