It’s hard to believe that it’s been 20 years since the Toyota Prius (available at Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA) first emerged as one of the earliest hybrid vehicles. In the beginning, this “green” vehicle appealed mostly to hardcore environmentalists, but since 2001, the draw of this efficient, fuel-saving vehicle has exploded.
Of course, as with all its models, Toyota has continually improved on the design, style, and much more. The 2021 Toyota Prius is the latest point of pride. Peruzzi Toyota is thrilled to review four key changes that take the 2021 Prius to a whole new level.
EVEN BETTER EFFICIENCY
For two decades, the main appeal of the Prius has been its impressive fuel efficiency. The new model offers 52mpg (city and hwy combined). The Power Control Unit allows the vehicle to utilize battery power alone in most situations, smoothly tapping into the gas engine when needed. Plus, the current iteration of Toyota’s New Global Architecture frame makes the 2021 the quietest version ever. Additionally, that design results in ultra-low “drag” resulting in additional efficiency on the road.
SPORTIER DESIGN
Just ’cause it’s “green” doesn’t mean it has to be dull. The 2021 Toyota Prius (which you can see – and drive – up close at Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA) features two new colors, Wind Chill Pearl and Supersonic Red. Add in color-keyed rear spoilers, glossy black exterior trim, and blackout headlight components, and you’ve got a car that turns heads.
SMARTLY DESIGNED INTERIOR
The 2021 Toyota Prius benefits from more interior space, so much so that the EPA now classifies it as a “midsize” car. Front-wheel-drive models boast an extra 50.7 cubic feet when the rear seatbacks are folded down.
GREATER PRODUCTIVITY
Of course, it’s all about how you spend your time on the road. The 2021 Prius offers you hands-free Bluetooth, while six interior speakers make the ride more enjoyable. Little touches like thoughtfully-designed cupholders for your commute ensure that your time behind the wheel will runs as smoothly as possible.
LEADING-EDGE SAFETY
The most current version of Toyota’s acclaimed Safety Sense features give drivers of the 2021 Prius even more control on the road. Pedestrian Detection automatically applies the brakes, even if you don’t see that person. Lane Departure Assist keeps you “between the lines” –literally, while Road Sign Assist gives you a heads-up on the dashboard with various traffic alerts.
Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA is excited to help lead the way in offering the next wave of sporty “green” vehicles that are right at home in these new times!
