Why choose a used Toyota Prius? Well, there are a variety of reasons why it’s a good choice, including:
- Efficient hybrid design that delivers eye-popping fuel economy.
- Perfect option for city drivers because the EPA-estimated MPG is actually higher in urban settings.
- Low price tag and cost of operation translate into outstanding value.
- Lots of options to choose from, all with impressive technology and safety systems.
Used Cars Save Big Bucks
First of all, if you pick any used car, it’s going to save you a lot of money compared to buying new. Depreciation, sales tax, registration, and dealer fees are just some of the examples of costs that will be much lower with a used vehicle. And, with a used car, you’re not stuck paying top dollar for extras like sunroofs, technology add-ons, etc.
Efficient Hybrid Design
The Prius has a brilliant two-engine design: a small gasoline engine paired with an electric unit. They work together to provide responsive, quiet power that is also incredibly efficient. EPA-estimated fuel economy fluctuates in the 50 MPG range, depending on the model and year you choose. The Prius also features an aerodynamic design with a rigid body and dynamic chassis. Its cool rear spoiler helps deflect the wind, making the ride even quieter and more efficient.
City Drivers Cheer
With traditional vehicles, gas mileage is much worse when you’re driving in the city. With a used Prius or other hybrid, EPA mileage ratings are actually better in urban environments. That’s because electricity is generated every time you stop, so with stop and go traffic, you’re constantly creating more energy that can then be used at low speeds and for quick acceleration. A used Prius would give you some big advantages if you live in the city.
Big Value in Prius Options
The lower price tag of a used Prius, combined with fewer trips to the gas station, results in huge value. In fact, U.S. News & World Report selected the 2017 Prius as the Best Value Hybrid for the Money. There are several different options to choose from, depending on the model year, including technology packages and advanced safety options like clearance alerts, blind spot monitor, and more.
