2012 Toyota Prius c Performance and Handling
The Prius c is built with a 1.5L four-cylinder hybrid Synergy Drive engine with EV/ECO modes that is capable of 99 hp, perfect for tooling around at city paces. Built on the Toyota Yaris' suspension, the Prius c is "shorter, slightly sleeker in profile, and sports a 0.28 drag coefficient - pretty good" for a car of its size, according to MotorTrend.com. The Prius c will come in four different trims, numbered One to Four, but changes among the trims are mostly cosmetic or technological, rather than mechanical. At highway speeds, the fuel economy maintains a steady 46 mpg, making it one of the first cars with a higher city fuel economy, a fact "green" enthusiasts and urbanites will be sure to tout. With a low base MSRP, the Prius c reaches a wide consumer base, including people looking for an cost-efficient hybrid that's easy to maintain and light on the budget during the car's lifetime.

2012 Toyota Prius c Exterior and Interior
The Prius c has the structural sleek flourishes typical of a hybrid, with four doors and 15-inch steel wheels on the first three models. The Prius c Four has 16-inch wheels and integrated fog lamps, but those are the only standard external aesthetic differences among the trims. The Prius c comes equipped with halogen headlamps, color-keyed rear spoiler and black roof-mounted antenna. A moonroof with sliding sunshade is possible on the Three and Four, making this exciting little car even more fun to drive.
Inside, technology and infotainment is upgradable as you climb the trim ladder. The Prius c One comes with an AM/FM/CD/MP3/WPA audio system with four speakers, auxiliary jack, USB port and Bluetooth technology. The Prius c Two upgrades to six speakers, but as far as music connectivity is concerned, that's where the One and Two differences end. All Prius c trims come standard with a 3.5-inch Multi-Information Display with vehicle stats and ECO savings indicator. This crafty display can measure "everything from your ECO score on a scale of 1 to 100, up to the cost of your drive based on whatever price of fuel you typed in before you left. It's a statistician's dream cruiser," reports AutoWeek.com. Technology is king in these hybrids. The Prius c Three and Four get the navigation system with Toyota's Entune system, and that includes a 6.1-inch touchscreen display with SiriusXM Satellite Radio capability and HD Radio. Entune also has Bing and Pandora access, real-time traffic, weather, fuel prices, sports and stocks info, among other apps.
Other interior upgrades include cruise control, improved storage and better seats with 60/40 folding mechanism, standard on the Two and up. A Smart Key System and steering wheel-mounted controls begin with the Three. And if you're looking to further customize your 2012 Toyota Prius c, [promote parts & accessories why buys]. |
