Vehicle Summary

Last redesigned for 2004, the hybrid-powered Prius is a sleek midsize hatchback. In contrast to Honda's hybrid system, electric operation is dominant in the Prius and the gasoline engine provides supplementary power. The headlights and taillights have been restyled for 2006, and additional safety features are installed.  Read more
