2017 Toyota Prius v is the Most Versatile Car in its Lineup

Jun 19, 2016

Experts at Classic Toyota know how important it is to reduce the carbon footprint from emissions, and that’s one of the biggest reasons why they get behind this company. Our Waukgen car dealership also realizes that there are lots of hybrid enthusiasts out there, and we’re definitely the right spot to find a new Toyota Prius.

There’s fresh information regarding the upcoming 2017 Prius v, which shapes up to be an incredibly valuable proposition to families. It combines the functionality and technology of an SUV with hybrid qualities.

The 2016 Prius v received a Top Safety Pick+ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, which is the standard the upcoming version aims for as well. Being a hybrid certainly compromise on strength of steel, as the 2017 Prius v uses a powerful force-absorbing body structure. Dual front airbags, front seat side airbags, curtain side airbags, and a knee bag at the driver’s seat are just one aspect of protection. Toyota’s Star Safety System™ includes a large assortment of technologies, such as Vehicle Stability Control, Brake Assist, Traction Control, an optional Lane Departure Alert, among others.

This new Toyota hybrid car also plays better with smartphones. An upgraded Entune Audio system adds Apple Siri^® Eyes-Free capability, which means finding information about the trip is easier than ever. The Entune™ Audio System displays services on a 6.1-inch and has six speakers at the baseline, including Bluetooth capability. Upgrading allows listening to the HD Radio system and splits the screen between road navigation and audio information.

We’re incredibly excited for the next version of the Toyota Prius car. We can tell that it’s going to be an incredibly valuable investment into a greener future. Learn more about the benefits of hybrid cars by visiting our Waukegan, IL Toyota car dealership.
