Spice up your Imagination with Rendered Images of Prius PHEV
With the fastest growing trend of Green cars, Toyota is set to top among other green cars with the latest addition of the all-new Toyota Prius. It's been only a few days when the Japanese brand has teased out the image of the next-generation Prius.
There were many speculations whether the new model will be the plug-in hybrid model seeing its link with the intelligent Eco-technology. Also the tail lights design seemed to be different from the regular Prius, which meant the new Toyota Prius will be the first plug-in Hybrid model to have a different styling from the regular Prius model. All the speculations now came into existent as the new rendered images from a Japanese Car Magazine have been doing rounds.
According to the rendered images, the new PHEV model sports a brand-new front fascia with Sleek horizontal headlights and LED DRLs adopted from Toyota Mirai. Its rear fascia has also got a fresh look with C-shaped tail-lights with a horizontal light line which we have seen in the teaser image.
The Japanese magazine hasn't got its hands on the interior yet though there is great possibility that the new Prius PHEV will retain the interior of the regular Prius.
Built on Toyota's new TNGA platform which gives it 60% more rigidity and efficiency, the new Prius might be packed with the 1.8-litre Atkinson-cycle VVT-i engine same as the Hybrid version but with the much larger lithium-ion battery. The PHEV model is surely going to have some gains over the regular Prius model and we can expect a boost in output from 97 hp to 105 hp along with the 90 hp of power from the electric motor alone. Fuel-efficiency is also likely to go up to 70 km per litre with the considerable dip in CO2 emissions with 40g/km.
More specifications will be revealed once the new Toyota Prius PHEV rolls out in the New York Auto Show to give a neck to neck competition to the Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid and PHEV models.
