The Toyota Prius is basically the epitome of hybrid vehicles. When you think hybrid, you think Prius. Having such an impact on today’s society among common folk and even the 1-percenters (including movie stars), the Toyota Prius continues to be a dominating driver for all-things fuel efficient. To keep things sailing smoothly with the Prius line, Toyota introduced many new variations of the Prius including a plug-in hybrid version, which takes the traditional Prius and adds an electric-only range of 13 miles and the ability to charge the larger battery capacity via standardized plug-in stations or wall charger units. In addition to the 13-mile electric only range, the Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid still manages to get an estimated 50 mpg in the city and highway.
