Thinking of buying a Toyota Prius near Baltimore, MD? Good things come to those who wait. If you can hold out a little bit longer, your patience will be rewarded with the debut of the groundbreaking 2017 Toyota Prius Prime. Why is it groundbreaking? Oh, maybe because its larger battery affords almost twice the all-electric range (approximately 22 miles, to be exact) of the previous Toyota Prius Plug-in, thus increasing the 2017 Toyota Prius Prime model’s total range to a jaw-dropping 600 miles.
This exceptional range is the product of a sublime powertrain consisting of a brand-new 8.8 kWh battery and an equally new 1.8L 4C engine. It’s new to the 2017 Toyota Prius Prime, but it’s the same engine employed by the standard Toyota Prius, which means it integrates all of the innovations that make the Toyota Prius one of the most fuel-efficient vehicles on the road.
This soon-to-arrive phenom is also groundbreaking because of its avant garde exterior, which incorporates a curved glass rear window that’s bookended by stylish LED taillights and integrated into a weight-reducing carbon-fiber hatch. Quad LED headlights also help this hatchback stand out from the crowd. And the 2017 Toyota Prius Prime model’s cabin is equally impressive, boasting four comfortable seats with 60/40-split folding rear seats. Cutting-edge technology is also a big part of the 2017 Toyota Prius Prime model’s interior appeal, led by a fantastic vertically-mounted infotainment platform that’s generously sized at 11.6 inches and functions just like a tablet, which means less button-pressing and more tapping and swiping.
Leading Maryland Toyota dealers like Heritage Toyota Owings Mills are excited about the 2017 Toyota Prius Prime. Watch this space for more info – this game-changing hybrid hatchback will be here before you know it!
