Carbon82 Moderator November 16, 2022 Share November 16, 2022 The best looking Prius so far, and Toyota in the recent years. In Europe, the new Prius is only available as a plug-in hybrid. The powertrain includes a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with a total system output of 220 horsepower. This is a 99-hp (74-kW) improvement over the current vehicle's electrically assisted 1.8-liter four-pot that makes 121 hp (90 kW). The Prius plug-in in Europe has a 13.6-kilowatt-hour battery, versus the 8.8-kWh pack from the previous model. The unit is underneath the rear seats. Toyota's announcement says the range "is 50 percent greater than the current generation." This would suggest a 94 km distance judging by the current 63 km figure in the UK. The Prius plug-in will be available with an optional solar roof panel. The European-market model announcement doesn't mention whether this system would improve the vehicle's driving range. Aesthetically, the new Prius looks familiar yet also has a fresh appearance. The design pushes the roof's apex farther back, which gives the car more of a coupe-like appearance. The altered proportions include lowering the height by 50 mm and stretching the wheelbase by the same amount. The overall length is 46 mm shorter. The width increases by 22 mm. 18 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratovarius Turbocharged November 16, 2022 Share November 16, 2022 Naise. Too bad will become teksi. 220hp teksi sounds dangerous though. 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watwheels Supersonic November 17, 2022 Share November 17, 2022 (edited) So now it is a Hybrid EV or HEV. Previously it is a petrol powered with electrical assisted system. The ICE has taken a backseat so to say. More generator rather than being the main power supplier. The PHEV should be more for Europe market. It has an auto parking system with remote function. Quote The new Prius comes with Advanced Park (with remote function), an advanced driving support system. It enables easy automatic parking and exiting from parking spaces in a variety of parking situations, and with operation outside the car via a dedicated smartphone app, the car can also enter and exit parking spaces remotely. Built-in dash cam with data store in an ECU. Quote The new Prius is equipped with a Toyota Safety Sense monocular camera at the front, a rear-facing camera for the Digital Inner Mirror, and an in-vehicle drive recorder. This setup has a clean appearance without a sense of the cameras and wires being retrofitted. The data is stored on the ECU to avoid data corruption and other issues associated with SD cards and properly manage important camera data. Can even provide external power supply. Kinda low voltage at 100volts AC. Not suitable for us. Quote This model is equipped with two 100 VAC / 1,500 W accessory power outlets; one at the back of the center console and one in the cargo space. Users can select the BEV external power supply mode, which uses power from the battery only without having to start the engine, or the HEV external power supply mode, which recharges the battery from the engine if the remaining power is too low. It also comes with an external electric power supply attachment as standard so that external power supply is possible with the door windows closed to prevent rain and insects from getting in the car when in use. The above details can be found on their website. https://global.toyota/en/newsroom/toyota/38225618.html Edited November 17, 2022 by Watwheels 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stratovarius Turbocharged November 17, 2022 Share November 17, 2022 Drove a rented prius in japan before. Actually the drive isn't too bad. Steering is abit light but the rest is actually quite good. Only con is the looks. The 220 bhp and new looks will make a very popular model. 1 hour ago, Watwheels said: So now it is a Hybrid EV or HEV.

Petrol engine is to charge the battery. Prius has always been Parallel Hybrid. Both electric and ICE runs concurrently. What your friend said could be running at low speed (i think 40km/h). At that speed, it is pure EV. ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
