2019 Toyota Prius fuel economy
Obviously, the Prius’ calling card is its incredibly efficient nature. Drivers of the Toyota Prius can average up to 54 city mpg, 50 highway mpg, and a whopping 52 combined mpg. As a hybrid car, the Prius does tend to get better gas mileage in the city than on the highway, which is contrary to standard cars. This is because whenever you are at a stop or coasting, the regular gasoline engine shuts off and the electric motor kicks in. On the highway, the gas engine is used more, therefore your fuel economy is worse. The Prius features a 96-horsepower, 1.8-liter inline four-cylinder engine along with an electric motor to make up its hybrid engine system.
