This is a car that is revolutionary technology that delivers a distinct sensation of driving, the Toyota Hybrid System is intended to reduce pollution, and to give the driver the sensation of driving fun. This car is a twin-engine, gasoline and electricity, a hybrid car from Japanese manufacturer's first mass produced. Design, In terms of car design is not much different from other non-hybrid car, this car look stylish with the appearance of lines and curves sharply to the body, it shows the impression of the future. in terms of the interior clearly shows the impression of a futuristic.

Dashboard,
Much information is displayed via the MID (Multi Information Display) that increasingly pamper you, from this you can find used cars more energy, whether electricity or gasoline, there is historical data of fuel consumption, the rest is almost beside the other car.
Right in the center console there is a button to choose a character from the Power Eco driving, and EV, to be sure both of these options will give a different driving experience. O yes this car is also already apply button engine start / stop, so you do not need to turn the ignition again like a conventional car, you simply step on the brake and press the button, if it says Ready on the speedometer display car can be driven.

Indeed, driving the Prius is a bit different from the usual car, this should come from the car engine system, because when the car is turned on an electric power source of which will run, so it will not sound the engine on this car, well if you hit the gas directly because it thinks the machine has not been alive, then the car will go straight, so TOYOTA requires that the brakes when the car is first turned on to avoid the possibility of an accident. So if you do not hit the brakes the car would not be alive, and if the car is stopped, the command will appear to be pressing the P (parking).
 
Machine. These cars use twin engines, gasoline engines and electric engines, gasoline engines Prius uses a machine that is used Toyota Altis (1.800 cc VVT i) the electric motor is the Toyota Synergy Drive. For the electric motor uses a series-parallel system, with the Prius gasoline engine system into two functions, to charge the electric motor (a generator) or simply as the driving wheel, or both, to the drive wheels and also as a generator simultaneously. So how it works, if the car is in the low-speed electric motor will work, while the gasoline engine off, and vice versa when the car began to enter the high-speed gasoline engine starts off, replace the electric motors. Obviously this technology is suitable to conserve fuel, especially in traffic jams.

Power Drive Mode, And when you pressed the power button drive mode, the Prius will accelerate spontaneous, similar to the Altis and even the speed of 145 km / h easily achieved, EV Drive Mode. If you activate this mode only the electric motor is active. Sound of the car to be quiet while the car drove normal, but in this mode we cannot use it long, because the battery will run out quickly.
