(prHWY.com) October 13, 2011 - Jersey City, NJ -- The Toyota Prius family continues to expand and your local Staten Island new Toyota dealer is proud to announce that the latest member, the Prius plug-in vehicle (PHV), is now even closer to its release date! Your friends at Hudson Toyota are here with all the details you need to know about the Prius PHV.
The Prius PHV differs from the regular Prius in a few key areas, namely its ability to run up to 15 miles as an electric car after which the vehicle's Hybrid Synergy Drive takes over. This marks a 15% improvement over previous estimates. In EV Mode, Toyota estimates the PHV will deliver the equivalent of 89 miles per gallon. In hybrid mode, the vehicle will still deliver an amazing 49 mile per gallon average. Recharge time at 115V takes just 3 hours, or even less than that with the new Leviton Level II charger.
Division Group vice president and general manager Bob Carter announces the launch next March 2012 of the Prius PHV. Also of importance to note is the fact that thanks to the PHV's smaller 4.4 lithium battery pack, owners qualifies for a federal tax credit of $2,500!
Pricing on the PHV model starts at $32,000. To learn more, stop into your favorite Weehawken Toyota parts leader.
