The 2012 Toyota Prius v brings versatility to drivers who value efficiency.
The all-new Prius v is powered by a 1.8-liter DOHC engine with VVT-i, 98 horsepower, and electronically controlled continuously variable transmission. Each model is equipped with a nickel-metal hydride battery pack. The Motor Generator Two system regenerates energy every time you brake to increase your efficiency. Standard features include independent MacPherson strut suspension, electric power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering, and front power-assisted ventilated disc brakes. The Star Safety System is included as well for solid rides. This system consists of smart stop technology, electronic brake-force distribution, enhanced stability control, and active traction control.
The 2012 Toyota Prius v is equipped with UV reduction glass windshield, rear spoiler with LED center stop lamp, and LED taillights for a sporty yet functional look. For added convenience, all three models have remote keyless entry, power door locks, power windows, and automatic climate control. Digital instrumentation provide a modern feel. Drivers have a six-way adjustable seat with power lumbar support, while front passengers have a four-way adjustable seat. LATCH seat restraints are included to make sure children remain seated properly.
