It has remarked 1.2 million of units ever since the first launch in public. The 500.000 units had been sold in the past of three years. The third generation of new Prius now changed into more perfection, thus we will find the facts:

1. New Prius has been certified by US Government's fuel efficiency test. The consume average for city driving is 51 mpg (21,68 km/liter), 48 mpg (20,41 km/liter), and high way combination 50 mpg (21,26 km/liter). This accomplishment is better than its competitor which has smaller engine.

2. The emission is cleaner. The government of California State which has strictly regulation in emission has accredited Prius as ‘Super Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle'.

3. The third generation now has bigger capacity in size of engine. This makes the competitor couldn't beat Prius. The revolution of roof-line design makes bigger capacity the roof-inside.

4. It is more safety for passenger with the new safety attributes.

5. The new 1.8 Liter capacity of engine provides 98 horsepower. The hybrid power system is now higher because the power engine system is more powerful.

6. Belt to work out the AC compressor and water pump is not more exist. Those have been changed into electrical system, thus it makes the engine more efficient. Toyota has created the first innovation in the world for AC system. The outside roof of Prius now equipped by solar system thus it will strengthen the system of interior air-circulation. So if the car be parked at opened parking area which the hot temperature is high, the car itself could reduce temperature inside. It is different with common car. The temperature Prius inside is manageable to keep low. Thus when the car starts, AC system is easier to make interior temperature cold.

7. New Prius has three mode power systems. Electric mode, in this system the car power is only supplied electrically by battery. The car is possible to move for maximize 24 mph for 20 - 30 miles before battery has to be recharged. Economy mode is the best mode in efficiency. And Power mode is the best for accelerate driving, 9,8 second could be reached for 0-100 km/h.
