We do commend Toyota for trying to step out of the box once in a while. With everybody commenting that the previous Toyota Prius looks boring and drab, we understand why Toyota choose to go for a more aggressive design when it comes to the new Toyota Prius.
Looking at what they have to offer, we think that Toyota might have gotten too carried away. It does look a lot more aggressive but we will not call it a beauty.
Luckily for them, the consumer are more than willing to forget about the blunder they made with the design as long as the hybrid model as the number to show. The 2016 Toyota Prius standard model will return about 54mpg in the city and 50mpg on the highway now and that is not the best that Toyota can do either.
The Eco model will return about 58mpg in the city and 53mpg on the highway. A pretty huge upgrade from the previous Prius.
