When you look at the new Toyota Prius 2018 model year, you want to sing.

This is a beautiful and stylish car. In the past few generations model, the company Toyota has accustomed us to the fact that the Prius is ugly. But now everything has changed. If the previous generation in the flow could not be noticed, this machine does not miss. It is like a toy for those who want to always be the center of attention.

Despite the fact that the wheelbase remains the same, the novelty became longer, wider and lower. The length of the car is 4540 cm first Toyota, which is built on a new modular platform, the goal of which like all modular platforms, reducing the number of aggregates, engines, suspensions, chair frames and smaller parts, and hence reduction of costs.

The heart of the hybrid – ingenious transmission has become more efficient. The motor was twenty percent lighter. As reduced mechanical losses. The petrol engine is remarkable that in the shirt of the cooling system, the exhaust system, there is a liner and foam. It aligns the temperature on the cylinder walls throughout the entire stroke of the piston. Thus, the increased resistance to detonation, and reduced mechanical losses.

Trunk volume is almost unchanged, it’s all the same 457 L. A here the loading height has become smaller. Underground posted full-size spare.

The interior of the new car was quieter. Gone flying part of the center console. But the instruments are still placed in the center so the driver could have in social networks to share their joy with others. The front panel is asymmetric, and the lower block and the screen is shifted to the passenger side. As for the materials, they become better than you were before, and to look at, and touch.

Visibility became better due to the new modular platform. Below was the level of the hood, below was the trunk lid, disappeared back up the thick a-pillars.

The front seats are six inches lower than before. Overhead, a huge supply of space. The load of the seat is distributed perfectly. Basically a mechanical adjustment, only the lumbar support is adjustable via the actuator. The back was roomier due to the greater margin over his head. Also there appeared more comfortable armrests.

The initial spurt at the start, which, according to Toyotomi plagued the previous Prius, smoothed. And the revs of the petrol engine is reduced by acceleration. Modes Power Eco and change on your accelerator response, but they remain in any case smooth. Engine power is 122 HP, which is less than the previous generation. Glad that the dropped fuel consumption. Now a hundred kilometres takes about two and a half liters of fuel.

The effectiveness of the brakes no complaints. The wheel of light and uninformative. Worth a little distracted, such as navigation, and then veering off course. But, while looking control one hundred percent. The car holds good directly and willingly, but not with big banks, even in sharp turns.

The machine is fairly quiet, noise-isolating all right. Only under heavy acceleration the noise of the engine.

Overall, the new Prius is not perceived as revolutionary, but rather as modified.
