2024 Toyota Prius Named “Car Of The Year”

For the first time in twenty years, the Toyota Prius has been named MotorTrend’s “Car of The Year” and for some excellent reasons! Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA is thrilled to share this exciting news. For too long, many have just considered the Toyota Prius an efficient hybrid, practical and good for getting around. However, the 2024 model has gotten a top-to-bottom overhaul that delivers both the safety and energy efficiency you want in a dynamic new package. The dramatic new profile sits longer and lower with a sharper roofline and a slim LED taillight across the car’s width. An optional solar roof adds a sporty accent while also boosting the battery pack. The new hybrid system includes more energy-dense batteries to go further on a charge, and an upgraded 2.0 liter, four-cylinder motor. The basic 2024 Prius model nets you 57 mpg combined, a huge leap from previous higher-end Prius models; that makes it the most efficient plug-in hybrid on the road. Also, the 2024 Toyota Prius now comes with all-wheel drive and a redesigned braking system that feels smoother switching between regenerative and friction braking. On the interior, you’ll find plenty of head room versus earlier models. In the rear, the new model gives you more leg and shoulder room, and a little more cargo space. Naturally, essentials like wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, rear cross-traffic alert, and blind spot monitoring are standard. And when it comes to safety, the 2024 Toyota Prius has been granted the sought-after Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s “Top Safety Pick+” rating. The auto experts at MotorTrend factored all of this in when naming the 2024 Prius its “Car of The Year.” But they added something else, noting that outside of its many practical aspects, it’s simply fun to drive! Peruzzi Toyota is thrilled to offer this great vehicle to our customers. Swing by our Hatfield showroom for a test drive.

Toyota Is About To Shake Up EVs

As electric vehicles (EVs) gain popularity, Toyota is taking a bold move that promises to shake up the entire sector. Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA has gotten some news from the automaker that we’re excited to share with our sustainably conscious customers: a brand-new battery that will make electric vehicles even more popular. Currently, Toyota is working on a new solid-state battery that delivers both longer range and faster charging. We’re talking being able to go 750 miles on a single charge then juicing up the battery in under 10 minutes. A recent poll reveals that many drivers are still anxious about range, opting for gas-powered cars for trips over 250 miles. Knowing your EV can go the distance on longer trips will be a game-changer for more eco-friendly vehicles. That same poll also cites consumer frustration over the amount of time it currently takes to charge an EV. Toyota’s new battery will change all that, delivering a full charge in just minutes. In the meantime, they’re adapting charging ports on their vehicles to make them compatible with the 12,000 Tesla charging stations around the country. That provides Toyota EV and hybrid customers with tons more opportunities to alleviate their “range anxiety.” Currently, Toyota is planning to have its new solid-state EV battery ready for the 2027 and 2028 model years, although they’re pushing hard to deliver sooner if possible. This new development is generating a lot of technology buzz, and its Toyota that’s at the forefront! Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield offers a full line of Toyota EVs and hybrids, like the popular Prius, Toyota Crown, and Tundra i-Force Max. Come on in to see how you can drive smarter and more sustainably, saving money on gas and reducing dangerous emissions. And know that Toyota is always working to make electric vehicles the go-to for people who care about our planet (and their wallet).

Is A Revamped Camry In The Works?

Car enthusiasts have been buzzing about a mysterious “teaser” campaign unleashed by Toyota within the automotive press, which indicates something big on the horizon. While the automaker is keeping details under wraps for now, smart car sleuths have put a few clues together. Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA is waiting for official confirmation, but in the meantime, here’s what we suspect is in the works. The teaser ads show the profile of what appears to be an updated sedan. There are only two sedans in the Toyota family that haven’t gotten a recent makeover, the Corolla and Camry. Car experts are betting that the “mystery vehicle” is the Camry, since it hasn’t seen many changes in recent years, whereas the Corolla has been revamped into a hybrid model and with all-wheel drive. So, the smart money is on a redesigned Camry. The Toyota Camry, available at Peruzzi Toyota, has been one of the world’s most popular sedans ever since its introduction back in 1982. If this familiar vehicle is in line for a redesign, it’s likely to be one done from the ground-up. Experts predict there will likely be hybrid options and some kind of all-wheel drive. The V6 engine which has powered the Camry could also benefit from the same turbocharged 2.4 liter four-cylinder engine currently available on other Toyota models like the Highlander. The teaser campaign also hints at a sexier, sleeker profile which will be a welcome change as well. Rumors are that this brand-new Toyota model – whatever it may be – will most likely be revealed to the world at the prestigious Los Angeles Auto Show, scheduled for mid-November. Whenever the curtain comes up, just know that you can find it at Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield. We’re as excited as the rest of the auto community to see what’s coming!

Toyota Makes The List Of “Best Selling Cars Of All Time”

There are some cars that are simply iconic. We see them so often on the road that we almost take them for granted, but they’re woven into our automotive history. And for good reason. In a recent article for Autoblog.com, ten vehicles were named as the “Best Selling Cars of All Time.”  Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA is thrilled that, of those ten, two Toyota models made the list. Coming in at Number Eight was the Toyota Camry. It first launched in 1982 as an affordable compact sedan. Since then, it’s grown to a comfortable midsize vehicle and now (in keeping with the sustainability trend) offers a hybrid option. Over 21 million Camrys have been sold in 100 different countries, with 13 million alone in the U.S. Topping the list at Number One – ahead of iconic vehicles like the Volkswagen Beetle and the Ford truck series – is the Toyota Corolla. This go-to car has been a hit ever since it first rolled off the assembly line in 1966. By 1974, it was the best-selling car in the world, flying out of dealerships like Peruzzi so fast, the automaker could barely keep up with demand. To date, over 44 million Corollas have been sold globally. Of all the best-selling cars in history, what makes Toyota stand out? It could be their longstanding reputation for durability and reliability. Perhaps it’s that Toyota prides itself on giving customers the little “extras” that make an affordable car feel luxurious. Or maybe it’s the automaker’s passion for safety, seen currently in the cutting-edge Toyota Safety Sense features included in every model. Whatever the reason(s), one thing is certain: Toyota’s devotion to practical luxury continues to make them a go-to choice for smart consumers. We hope you’ll stop by Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield to check out the many options available to you!

Is Toyota Planning A New Luxury SUV? Seems So

Toyota has always been known for its reliable, dependable vehicles. With every model year, they upgrade the technology and comfort, too. But now comes word that the automaker is going next level with an ultra-luxurious SUV, the all-new Toyota Century. Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA has been hearing the chatter for months about this breakthrough and has some details (and a few speculations). For several months, “teasers” have been leaking out into the car world about this new version of the Century, a big step up from the sedan model. Details about its imposing exterior appear to include a distinctive rear fender, plenty of chrome, and squared-off rear lights reminiscent of a Rolls-Royce. That would seem to be a nod to the high-end customer Toyota hopes to attract. The vehicle is built to accommodate three rows of seating, but there’s some talk that the space will be used instead for two rows that provide enormous amounts of leg room – and perhaps even reclining rear seats. Of course, the new Century is getting an anticipated engine upgrade as well with a plug-in hybridized V8 powertrain. Thus far, the Toyota Century has only been available in Japan, a desirable high-end vehicle favored by VIPs. But the buzz is that this ultra-luxurious SUV edition will be rolled out here in America sometime soon. The price tag is a little steep (well over 100K), but the features and upgrades are certain to trickle down into upcoming models including the humbler Toyota Highlander. So even if the Toyota Century isn’t in your budget, you may still be able to enjoy some of its elegance! Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield is excited to give you a sneak peek at this exciting development with our brand. We’re proud to be associated with a carmaker with such a vision for the future.

Driver training is obviously one but putting them behind the wheel of a safe vehicle can also go a long way. Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA is proud to announce that Toyotas have been named among the safest cars for teen drivers. The annual list is composed by Consumer Reports and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).

Toyotas rank high in all of those categories – and more. So, which of them made the “safest” list in 2023 models? The Toyota RAV4 is a leader in the Small SUV category, while the Toyota Highlander is a great pick as a mid-size SUV.

Also included in their list, the Toyota Corolla or Camry (2013 or newer). The main driver (no pun intended) for making this prestigious list is safety. In that department, Toyota has always made that a priority and is constantly evolving the technology to make it happen.

Going The Distance: Toyotas Rank Among The Longest-Lasting Vehicles

Your vehicle is one of the most expensive purchases you’ll ever make, so naturally, you want to keep it for as long as you can. Toyotas have a reputation for being among the most durable on the road, and now there’s hard proof: a recent study by iSeers.com ranked Toyota high up on their list for staying power on the road. Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA is proud to represent these extraordinarily long-lasting vehicles. The study looked at data from 260 million cars, then examined the 23 models that were shown to have a 20 percent chance (or more) for reaching a quarter-million miles. Of the 14 top-ranked SUVs, Toyota models made a heck of a showing, garnering 5 slots on the list. The Toyota Land Cruiser made the #1 spot among SUVs, demonstrating a nearly 48% chance of reaching 250,000 miles. The 4Runner had a 47.9% chance of hitting that mark, while the Toyota Sequoia came in at 47.1%. The RAV4 and Highlander also made the top 14 SUVs that can potentially achieve the honor. Among minivans, the iSeer.com report placed the Toyota Sienna in the number one slot for reaching 250,000 miles (with a 23.3% chance, almost 4 times more likely than the average). So not only is the Sienna affordable and packed with safety and comfort features for your family, but you’ll be also able to enjoy it for many years to come. In the truck category, the Toyota Tundra has a 49.1% chance of reaching a quarter million miles. That’s nearly two times what the average truck can expect. In fact, a Tundra owner recently made headlines when his odometer rolled over a million miles! The Toyota Tacoma followed close on the Tundra’s heels (tires?) given an almost 42% chance of reaching the 250K mark.
