Toyota Prius shortlisted for World Car of the Year 2010

The Toyota Prius has been shortlisted for World Car of the Year 2010. The Toyota Prius February 2010 sales are comfortably more than double the previous best for the month. Total sales last month are further proof that UK motorists have faith in Toyota quality and reliability.

Toyota has made the Toyota Prius more refined, more spacious, more dynamic and most importantly more fuel efficient and less polluting.

The co2 emissions are so low that its company car tax rate is just 10% while the official average fuel economy is 72.4mpg. The Toyota Prius is capable of 0-62mph in 10.4 seconds and has top speed of 112mph.

Inside the Toyota Prius, the seats are comfy, the colours are light and airy and it is incredibly spacious. It is fabulous to drive the super light steering makes it easy to get round town, there is plenty of grip and decent refinement and the ride is nice and smooth on the motorway.

The Toyota Prius is Japans top selling car and more than 1.6 million have been solid since the first generation was launched in 1997.
