My car is 2005 Toyota Prius. It is made in Japan and very nice car. As you know, Prius has an electric motor. The electric motor starts first, and then a gasoline engine starts next when we need more power. As long as we drive by only the electric motor, we don't use gas. The battery charges when we press the brake pedal or from the gasoline engine.
In my case, I can drive about 700 km at one feed. The average fuel consumption is about 4.6 liters per 100 km (51.1 miles per gallon or 21.7 km per 1 liter). The current fuel consumption is 4.2 liters per 100 km (56.0 miles per gallon or 23.8 km per 1 liter). The average fuel consumption of the normal gasoline engine car is at under 8 litters per 100 km.
So I can go approximately the double distance than the normal car at the same cost. Of course, the price of the cars are different but I just love the concept of Prius and the hybrid system. Please try to drive Prius if you have never driven Prius. You will love it.
Thank you so much.
