Woburn Toyota in MA Will Soon Welcome the 2012 Prius Hybrid

Woburn Toyota, a leading MA Toyota dealer, will soon welcome the new 2012 Toyota Prius to their showroom. The Prius has been around for a full decade, and is both the first successful mass-market hybrid and the best selling hybrid vehicle.

The 2012 Prius is bigger than a Corolla and just a bit smaller overall than a Camry. Five trims are available on this year’s Prius including a hatchback sedan with a lower price and higher fuel economy.

All Prius trims come with the same drive train -  a 1.8 liter gas engine teamed with a pair of electric motors and a battery pack, as well as front-wheel drive. A CVT automatic transmission is standard equipment.

MA Toyota Dealers Tout Incredible Fuel Economy of New Prius Hybrid

MA Toyota dealer shoppers are well defended against raising gas prices with the new Prius.  Mileage for the 2012 model is listed at 51 mpg highway and 48 mpg city.

In addition to boasting stellar fuel economy, driver-adjustable powertrain settings allow MA Toyota drivers a choice of “Eco” mode to rely less on the gas side of the powertrain and to switch on engine/transmission calibrations that make the most of the gas side when it’s running. At speeds up to about 30 MPH, the driver can also select “EV” mode, which cuts off the gas engine entirely and lets the car operate on battery power alone.

A digital bar graph display lets the driver monitor economy from minute to minute, or in 5, 10 or 15 minute intervals.

The inside of the Prius is as distinctive as the outside. Directly ahead of the driver, there’s nothing but dashboard with plenty of instrumentation. The digital gauge cluster is centered in the middle of the dash and a flat panel LCD multi-function screen can be toggled through different displays, including the “power flow” monitor that shows you whether you are operating on the gas engine alone, with an assist from the electric motors, or on electric-battery power only.

MA Toyota shoppers will find that the 2012 Toyota Prius is still the pick of the hybrid litter. To learn more about the 2012 Toyota Prius Hybrid coming soon to MA Toyota dealers, call Woburn Toyota at 877-835-7806.
