At the end of the 20th century, Toyota introduced the Prius model to the world, a line that would change the way we look at alternative-fuel vehicles.
It was the first mainstream hybrid fuel-electric automobile that took the world by storm.
You could find many celebrities adopting the car quickly as it sat comfortably within their “green future” vision for the world.
What made the Prius stand out was the ability it had to not only achieve an amazing fuel economy but also be practical at the same time.
To create the car Toyota took the popular Corolla platform and adapted it to make it a hybrid model, adding the capabilities to an already popular car.
An aerodynamic body was crafted for the Prius to help make the new model stick out as well as reduce fuel use even further.
Over the years the Japanese automaker has further refined the line to be better in every way possible.
New materials and modern production technologies have allowed the Prius to remain low-cost while achieving better fuel efficiency.
The original Prius could achieve just over 40 miles to the gallon whereas the modern examples of the car can push just over 50 miles for the same fuel use.
