Hence, in the wide range of hybrid cars, Toyota Prius is the world's first standard-production hybrid-electric car. The Prius is meant to be a fully working alternative for a family or fleet vehicle. It is an example of smart usage of technology without any downsizing, so it is a complete family car.
