April 29, 2011 - PRLog -- Del Toyota, a metro Philadelphia Toyota dealership, is celebrating one million Prius hybrids sold in the United States. The Toyota Prius, the world’s first mass-produced hybrid gas-electric car, has consistently been one of Toyota’s most popular models.

“Since the Prius went on sale eleven years ago not a year has gone by when it hasn’t been the number one selling hybrid vehicle in the U.S,” said Bob Carter, Toyota Division group vice president and general manager. “Prius has become synonymous with the word hybrid and as we see fuel prices starting to rise again, it has accounted for more than 60 percent of hybrid passenger car sales so far this year. Prius paved the way for hybrids and while it is still the hybrid leader in sales and fuel economy, I’m proud to say that since its introduction, 13 other auto brands have seen the benefits of hybrid technology and joined the hybrid market.”

Since 2000, the year the Toyota Prius was introduced, American consumers have saved an estimated 881 million gallons of gas, $2.19 billion in fuel costs and 12.4 million tons of CO2 emissions. Rising to the top of the EPA’s list of the Most Fuel Efficient Vehicle for 2011, the third-generation Prius has been named the Best Overall Value of the year by IntelliChoice nine years in a row and has the highest owner loyalty of any mid-size vehicle.

PA Toyota customers looking to save at the pump can test drive the Toyota Prius at Del Toyota in Thorndale, PA.
