The car most people envision when they hear the word “hybrid”, Toyota’s Prius has become a prominent aspect of the cultural landscape. Introduced to the United States in 2001, the Prius had already been on sale in Japan since 1997.
Despite initial concerns about battery life and longevity the Toyota Prius has proven to be both a reliable and a robust automobile. There have been three generations of the car since it was first introduced and more than one million copies have been sold in America.
