After a couple of leaked shots Toyota finally reveals the Prius C, saying it’s a more accessible hybrid for the masses.

As the hatchback version of Toyota Prius, the C is designed to be the most efficient and most convenient city runabout. It is powered by the latest version of Toyota’s Hybrid Synergy Drive and along with the Prius V extend the Prius family further.

It makes the Prius C the most efficient car among the non-plug-in vehicles. It also has no range anxiety. They have been making hybrids for 14 years now, so it will be very reliable as well.

The Prius C is designed for younger buyers and modern families, so it comes with a range of connectivity features thanks to the Etune system. It allows users to connect with popular apps such as Bing™, OpenTable.com, and movietickets.com. Entune™ also provides access to real-time information services, such as live weather, traffic, fuel information (location and price), stocks, and sports. The Toyota Prius c also offers voice recognition, music streaming, and email/text to speech capabilities.
