Owners of these 3 hybrid vehicles all drive in a way that DOES NOT BURN ANY GASOLINE in another word all driving are short trips and on electricity.

Toyota is trying to get from the current 26% rate of electrified models up to 40% by 2025.Ĭonsider this hypothetical (and extreme just to explore the concept) scenario. The Prius hybrid technology was introduced in other Toyota vehicles (model year shown) and by 2025 hybrids should be an option for every Toyota model, but more consideration was given to passenger comfort at the expense of the best possible fuel economy. Everything about it is designed to produce the best possible fuel economy. The Prius whose first model year was 2000 is a showpiece car. Of course, the best aerodynamic styling is not the roomiest configuration. The Prius drag coefficient is 0.24 (121 hp).Corolla Cross has a drag coefficient of 0.32 (194 hp).2022 Toyota Prius/Curb weight 3,010 to 3,220 lbs.2022 Toyota Corolla Cross/Curb weight 3,115 to 3,325 lbs.But, of course it is the same engine as the PriusĬurb weight is a factor, but I think that the curb weight is overwhelmed by aerodynamic drag and engine power.

The Corolla hybrid is a little cheaper than the Prius, and is less of a magnet for evil kids who mock Prius drivers. Prius ECO 57.8 pg in city and 53.3 mpg in highway

Prius 54 mpg in city and 50 mpg in highway A regular Corolla hybrid (not the Corolla Cross) gets 53 mpg city and 52 mpg in highway
