“Get behind the wheel of the Prius c and
discover Toyota’s winning combination of driving fun, versatility, remarkable
fuel efficiency and low emissions,” said Larry Hutchinson, Vice President
at Toyota Canada Inc. “The Prius c features an impressive amount of space
with room for five passengers and 17 cubic feet of cargo. Equally impressive
is its long list of standard features – including advanced technology
that only a Toyota hybrid can deliver.”
Canadians continue to embrace Toyota’s hybrids
in record numbers, confident that Toyota’s experience – dating back to
the sale of the first Prius in Canada in 2000 – has created one of the
world’s most versatile and innovative line-up of low emissions, fuel efficient,
advanced technology vehicles.
That experience has been engineered into every
2014 Toyota Prius c. The Prius c features a 99 net horsepower Toyota Hybrid
Synergy Drive built around a 1.5L Atkinson Cycle engine, high torque electric
motor, efficient storage battery and sophisticated power management system,
mated to a continuously variable transmission. This combination delivers
a remarkable fuel efficiency of just 3.6L/100KM in urban driving (3.8L/100KM
city/highway combined).
The Hybrid Synergy Drive enables many features
unique to hybrids, from the efficiency of regenerative braking to four
driver-selectable driving options (Normal, Power and ECO, plus Electric
Vehicle mode for short distances) to suit any style and driving condition.
Meanwhile, a carefully tuned suspension balances handling agility with
ride comfort, which combined with Prius c’s low centre of gravity and
impressive 4.8m turning radius makes driving this subcompact big fun.
The Prius c is big on safety too, with fast-acting,
highly visible and ultra-reliable LED brake lamps and nine airbags for
360-degree protection. As with every Toyota since the 2011 model year,
the 2014 Prius c is standard equipped with the six active safety technologies
of the Star Safety System: Antilock Brake System, Brake Assist, Electronic
Brake Force Distribution, Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control and
Smart Stop Technology work together to help drivers avoid potential accident
situations. Other safety features include anchor points for child seats,
child protector rear door locks, and a tire pressure monitoring system.
