[Original Product] Recently, Toyota once again released a preview image of the new generation of Prius, this time showing the design details of the rear part of the new car. According to previous reports, the new generation of Prius will be officially released on November 16. It will be built based on the TNGA-C architecture. In addition to the hybrid version, a plug-in hybrid version may also be launched, which may be the first to be launched in January 2023. Released in overseas markets.
The latest preview images of the new generation Toyota Prius
Judging from the latest preview images, the new Prius is equipped with through-type taillights at the rear of the car, and the slender LED light strips light up, making the rear end relatively highly recognizable. The Toyota brand LOGO is designed on the top of the light strip, and the word "PRIUS" is below it.
Review of known information about the new car:
The picture above is a previously released preview of the new Prius.
According to the preview images previously released by Toyota, the new Prius may continue the family-style design style of the Toyota bZ series, and the iconic daytime running lights on the front face are highly recognizable. The edges of the headlights are also equipped with the words "HYBRID REBORN", which can be translated as "hybrid rebirth", perhaps as a tribute to its contribution to the hybrid market.
Previous preview images also showed part of the body lines of the new Prius. From its smooth roof line, it can be inferred that the new generation Prius will pay more attention to the aerodynamic efficiency of the entire vehicle. In addition, the rear of the car is expected to retain the classic Prius style and adopt a hatchback design. It is reported that the length, width and height of the new car are 4600/1780/1420 mm respectively, and will be equipped with 17-inch and 19-inch rims.
Judging from previously exposed spy photos, the rear of the new Prius appears to be very compact. It is expected to be equipped with a long and narrow taillight group. The slightly raised duck tail design can also create a certain sporty atmosphere.
New car information exposed by overseas media
In terms of power, the new Prius will be built on the TNGA-C platform, adopt a fifth-generation hybrid system, and provide E-Four electric four-wheel drive. The maximum power of the 1.8-liter four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine and electric motor is 100 horsepower. .
Write at the end:
2012 FAW Toyota Prius
Previously, the Prius was made in China by FAW Toyota, but the price of 229,800-269,800 yuan dissuaded many users. It is still unknown whether the new generation Toyota Prius will be sold domestically in the future. However, even if the new car misses the domestic market, the fifth-generation hybrid technology it is equipped with will not be absent. Domestic North and South Toyota will probably follow suit and replace their own models with new power systems. Therefore, compared with the new Prius, New hybrid technology may be the focus of attention from the outside world.
