Toyota released the first official image of the Prius c today and announced the lineup of world premiers scheduled for the Tokyo Motor Show.
Dubbed “Aqua” in Japan, the Prius c is barely bigger than a Toyota Yaris, seats five people and will constitute the smallest member of the Prius family upon its launch.
The Prius c ’s hybrid system (a 1.4L gas engine coupled with an electric motor) will allow for exemplary fuel efficiency at just 2.86L/100 km.
The Toyota Prius c will join the brand’s U.S. and Canadian lineups in the spring of 2012, and will make its North American debut at the upcoming Detroit auto show.
