Prius c Chief Engineer Satoshi Ogiso describes the c as ‘younger, smaller, and a little more feisty’ than the existing Prius.
In a nutshell, the Prius c builds on the green credentials of the first three generations of Prius, but adds a dash of design funk, improved function, and value.
This value includes a new Australian hybrid low price, with the entry Prius c priced at $23,990 - some $6000 less than the previous price-leading Honda Insight, and $10,000 less than the newly re-priced larger Prius.
We drove both the base Prius c and the higher spec $26,990 Prius c i-Tech at Toyota’s Australian launch on Queensland’s Gold Coast.
The drive included a mix of urban trundle, and twisty hinterland entertainment.
