The brand-new Toyota Prius Plug-In has arrived in California, and Toyota wants to make sure that potential buyers know that the plug-in hybrid can be up to $4,000 dollars lower than the sticker price might make it seem, plus other benefits.
The new Prius qualifies for the State of California's Clean Vehicle Rebate Program (CVRP) worth $1,500. The corded Prius can also get California's HOV lane access sticker and qualifies for a $2,500 federal income tax credit. This is the same program that gives Nissan Leaf and Chevrolet Volt buyers up to $7,500, but the Prius Plug-in has a smaller battery and thus only gets a third as much money back.
The Prius Plug-in Hybrid is expected to get 95 miles per gallon equivalent, can go up to 11 miles in pure electric mode and, once the battery is emptied out, gets an EPA combined rating of 50 mpg. The car will have two trim lines, the standard for $32,000 and the Advanced for $39,525
