1996 Toyota Prius Prototype


Back in 1996 Toyota reveled their Prius project prototype to the world. Toyota had been working on making the car of the future that would be fuel efficient and environmentally friendly. The first generation Toyota Prius would catch the automotive world off guard. Only Honda had beaten them to the American Market with the first generation Honda Insight. The Prius would be a full two years ahead of the other competition. Even the redesigned Honda Insight would have a very similar four-door body design as the Prius. The Prius would become an automotive icon and a sign of where the automotive industry will be heading for the next 50 years.
