Part II: 2010 Prius

The new model arrives in U.S. showrooms this spring, equipped with 1.8-liter, four cylinder engine that pumps up performace. The car zips from zero to 60mph in 9.8 seconds in internal testing, compared to 10.9 seconds for it predecessor.

Fuel efficiency also improves, thanks to advances in design and technology. An aerodynamic stretched silhouette, along with underbody covers, minimizes air resistance, reducing the drag coefficient from 2.6 to.25. A new exhaust heat collection system uses engine coolant to extract exhaust heat, improving engine warm-up time and increasing start-up fuel economy.

A redesigned gas tank not only simplifies the fueling system but also sheds weight. In fact, the entire hybrid system weighs less.

Keep the prius in mind if you want something ECO and TECHNO
