Toyota Prius hybrid

In January in Detroit debuted the third Toyota Prius hybrid generation, and in May in Japan its most economic version will already go on sale. The structure of a hybrid drive gear of a novelty will include the heaped up 1,5-litre unit with system of resetting of phases of the gas distribution, 70 “horses” giving out only.

Fuel consumption with this engine is scanty - 2,63 litres on hundred kilometres in the mixed cycle. For kilometre of run new Prius will produce only 68 grammes of carbonic gas in air from an exhaust pipe. Any serial car of this class cannot brag of such indicators yet. The price of this hybrid starts from 18 000 dollars.
