5.1

A lovely number. This is the amount of petrol in litres needed for 100km travel for my new Prius. My previous car, a Volvo S60 will drink 11.5 litres to cover the same distance. In terms of responsive, it is not as good at regular mode. However there is a Power option which makes the Prius just as zippy as S60.

The amount of petrol dollars I save will not be enough to cover the price premium we paid for being eco-friendly.

It is a great feeling to reduce my family's carbon footprint. Cheers to Toyota! Keep up the wonderful development and innovation of new technologies reducing the impact on our Mother Earth.
