Bristol, RI -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/14/2011 -- Bristol Toyota is excited to announce the arrival of the brand new 2012 Prius v at its Rhode Island Toyota dealership. The Prius v, the newest member of the Prius family, combines the fuel efficiency the hybrids are known for with a larger, more family-friendly size.

The “V” in Prius v stands for versatility, a trait that is immediately obvious. The car comfortably seats five and offers more cargo space than 80% of small SUVs, while still receiving EPA-estimated fuel economy ratings of 44 mpg city/40 mpg highway/42 mpg combined. This creates the perfect vehicle for customers who want the advantages of a hybrid but need to the space of a larger vehicle.

Spaciousness and fuel efficiency are not the only perks of the Prius v. The new car also boasts enhanced connectivity features and state-of-the-art electronics. The standard audio system has six speakers and a 6.1-inch screen for the Display Audio System. This screen provides multiple functions, as it also shows fuel consumption data and serves as the monitor for the integrated backup camera. The Prius v also serves as one of the first Toyota models to offer the much-anticipated Entune multimedia system, which leverages smartphones to create a unique in-vehicle experience, with access to navigation, information, and entertainment services.
