2010 Toyota Prius

ONE OWNER, 51 MPG, HYBRID, ALLOY WHEELS, STABILITY CONTROL, KEYLESS ENTRY

Recently arrived at Carter Subaru Ballard, this 2010 Toyota Prius II in Black is a practical and efficient hatchback with CARFAX one-owner history. Known for exceptional fuel economy, useful cargo space, and everyday dependability, the Prius remains a smart option for Seattle commuters, students, first-time buyers, and anyone looking to spend less time and money at the fuel pump.

The 1.8-liter four-cylinder DOHC engine with VVT-i works with Toyotas hybrid system and a smooth CVT to deliver responsive, easygoing performance. EPA-estimated fuel economy of 51 city and 48 highway mpg makes this Prius especially well suited to stop-and-go traffic, daily commuting, rideshare use, and longer trips. Front-wheel drive and speed control contribute to a comfortable, predictable driving experience.

Its hatchback design provides versatility that many traditional compact sedans cannot match. The split-folding rear seat makes it easy to create additional room for groceries, luggage, sports equipment, or other everyday cargo. A rear window wiper, rear defroster, heated side mirrors, delay-off headlights, variably intermittent wipers, and a rear spoiler add practical convenience for changing Pacific Northwest weather.

Inside, the Prius offers a clean, functional cabin with comfortable fabric-trimmed front bucket seats and a front center armrest with storage. Automatic climate control helps maintain a comfortable temperature, while steering-wheel-mounted A/C and audio controls keep frequently used functions within easy reach. Additional conveniences include power windows, power mirrors, remote keyless entry, illuminated entry, an outside temperature display, a trip computer, and a tilt and telescoping steering wheel.

The audio system includes AM/FM radio, MP3-compatible CD playback, and six speakers for everyday entertainment. Front reading lights, an overhead console, driver and passenger storage bins, vanity mirrors, a rear-seat center armrest, and a panic alarm add useful touches throughout the cabin. The 15-inch alloy wheels complement the Black exterior with a clean and timeless appearance.

Toyota equipped this Prius with an extensive selection of safety and stability features. Four-wheel disc brakes, ABS, brake assist, electronic stability control, and traction control help support confident handling. Occupant protection includes dual front-impact airbags, dual front side-impact airbags, an overhead airbag, a driver knee airbag, occupant-sensing technology, anti-whiplash front head restraints, and a low tire-pressure warning system.
