- 2012 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid
The Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid is a variant of the popular Prius line of hybrid vehicles and is the first to introduce plug-in recharging capabilities. Though it was introduced in a limited release in February 2012, car transportation companies shouldn’t have a problem shipping it as it is the same size and shape of a regular Prius – simply more advanced under the hood. In this article we’ll discuss the Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid in terms of its current available models, their key features, as well as what your car transportation quotes will consist of and what you can do to make your transport the best and easiest it can be.
The Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid currently is available in two models, the Prius Plug-In Hybrid and the Prius Plug-In Hybrid Advanced. The Plug-In Hybrid features a 1.4L ECVT 4-Cylinder hybrid engine, 15-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels, blue-accent headlamps and badges, remote climate control, heated front seats, a 60/40 split-folding rear seat and Display Audio with Navigation and Entune. The Prius Plug-In Hybrid Advanced features the same engine and basic features as the Plug-In Hybrid, but also includes integrated fog lamps, aerodynamic LED headlamps with auto level control/auto on-off feature/headlamps cleaners, an auto-dimming rearview mirror with HomeLink universal transceiver, Premium HDD Navigation with Entune, JBL and mobile applications, SofTex-trimmed seats and steering wheel, a Heads-Up Display and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control.
The Prius Plug-In Hybrid may be new to the market, but car transportation companies shouldn’t have any more problems shipping it than they would with a regular Prius – which is to say that they won’t have any problems with the vehicle itself. Most of your car transportation prices reside in where your Prius is coming from and going to – i.e., the pickup and delivery cities. It’s important to note that car transportation carriers travel along busy interstate highways through and between major metropolitan areas – it’s where their customers are, and traveling to a city with few people usually results in a loss if they transport at regular prices. Car transportation services to or from cities that are off the beaten path, so to speak, usually is more expensive than shipping to or from major metropolitan areas. If you need car transportation on a budget, it’s best to speak with a live representative who can explain more about your specific shipment and ways that you can save some money and still get the same great service.
