The brand-new Toyota Prius Prime is not yet on sale at Texas Toyota of Grapevine, but fans are eagerly awaiting its arrival. It’s already being touted as one of the most fuel-efficient plug-in hybrids in the game, beating out many top competitors its class. Just take a look at its EPA estimates and you’ll quickly understand why it stands in a league all its own.
When the Prius Prime was first revealed by Toyota, it was said it would offer an EPA-estimated 120 MPGe, but after recent testing, the plug-in hybrid has been found to actually deliver 133 MPGe when in electric mode. This number puts it above other models its segment, including the BMW i3 which delivers 124 MPGe, the Volkswagen e-Golf which offers 116 MPGe and the Nissan LEAF which produces 114 MPGe.
In addition to this astounding number, the Prius Prime can travel up to 25 miles on a single charge when in electric mode and 640 miles when also using the gas engine. This makes the incoming model a top pick for buyers considering a hybrid car in order to achieve phenomenal fuel economy.
