December figures are in for Toyota and, apart from the steady performance of the Corolla, the Prius family made a considerable splash last month. Overall, the Prius family saw a sales increase of over 73 percent compared to December 2011. The introduction of the 2013 Toyota Prius v certainly played an important role in the family’s December momentum. Here is an overview of this exciting, fuel-efficient addition to the Toyota line.

What’s unique about the Prius v is its combination of passenger, payload versatility and the kind of fuel efficiency that has put the Prius family on the map. Think of it as a hybrid crossover, bringing you the best of both worlds.

Highlights:

  • Ample space: With rear seatbacks down, you get 67.3 cubic feet of cargo space (34.3 cubic feet of space behind the rear seats with seatbacks up). The 60/40 split sliding reclining fold-down rear seats give you many options
  • Stay connected: The Entune® system, a collection of popular mobile applications and data services, lets you do it al
  • Panoramic View Moonroof
  • Hybrid Synergy Drive®

It’s easy to see why the Prius v is playing such an active role in the ongoing success of the Toyota nameplate. As of late, the success has been significant: Toyota’s overall December sales were up 13.2 percent compared to December of 2011. Look for the upward trend to continue as more and more people discover all that the 2013 Prius family has to offer.
