The 2015 Toyota Prius c is an Accessible Hybrid Hatchback

Jun 10, 2015

Hybrid cars have the reputation of saving you lots of gas, but have a steep starting price. That’s certainly not true of the 2015 Toyota Prius c, currently available at our Toyota dealership serving Libertyville. This is the smallest and most affordable model in the 2015 Toyota Prius family that still helps you cut fuel costs.

All models come with a 1.5L four-cylinder gas engine that is tied to an electric motor and a nickel-metal hydride battery. All power is delivered to the front-wheel drive vehicle using an advanced continuously variable transmission instead of an automatic or manual. Together these components help the vehicle to achieve an EPA-estimated 53 mpg city and 46 mpg highway.

Unlike some hybrids, the 2015 Toyota Prius c does not need to be plugged into a charging station or outlet to take advantage of its fuel efficiency. The vehicle uses a regenerative braking system to recapture energy normally lost during braking. Instead, this energy is stored in the vehicle’s battery to be used when needed.

The 2015 Toyota Prius c comes in four trim levels with even the base model very well equipped. The 2015 Toyota Prius c One comes with Bluetooth connectivity allowing drivers to connect their smartphones to the car to access both phone and audio features. There’s a 6.1-inch touchscreen interface and voice controls so you can keep your eyes on the road. Higher trims offer more features like navigation, keyless entry and ignition, and a sunroof.
