But this year, it's different; Toyota has rounded out the Prius line with two new body styles. First, there's the Prius V, a larger wagon version, which arrived earlier this model year; and now the 2012 Prius C has arrived, appealing to those who want a simpler, more compact car.<br /><br />With a more familiar, traditional small-car profile and package, yet the same best-in-class 50-mpg figure (actually 53 mpg city, 46 highway)—matched with a base price of just $19,710—the Prius C should attract a wider swath of value-conscious motorists.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpXnuDbhKczDsSgPLHBnjCnkqTVETp2QM4W7Rm6uGu_2i_XDZZk69iOrQLJnbEYh7wSLKAukXG9XuwBwxSkVLC0tIlRvsEtpPEHop0axCmFjYaGygNNOhES6Inox5b-DtgFtsnQw5BQU4S/s1600/2012-Toyota-Prius-V-Dashboard.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpXnuDbhKczDsSgPLHBnjCnkqTVETp2QM4W7Rm6uGu_2i_XDZZk69iOrQLJnbEYh7wSLKAukXG9XuwBwxSkVLC0tIlRvsEtpPEHop0axCmFjYaGygNNOhES6Inox5b-DtgFtsnQw5BQU4S/s400/2012-Toyota-Prius-V-Dashboard.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNpeLMUZXDXIuhmP02dV4X4OpCtrjK5a-iTLuwaZJ0H4HjoyCUg3U0GaloqUWgrKXy_laJvg-Bpnve9SERARkDVlhCx0GTn2JF9nN0fuiPH1Ztt_i16X2pdkZdtAVnLORvtnuNOq1bqDWz/s1600/2012-Toyota-Prius-PHEV-performs-comfortable-driving-environment-completed-with-high-tech-interior-design.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="220" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNpeLMUZXDXIuhmP02dV4X4OpCtrjK5a-iTLuwaZJ0H4HjoyCUg3U0GaloqUWgrKXy_laJvg-Bpnve9SERARkDVlhCx0GTn2JF9nN0fuiPH1Ztt_i16X2pdkZdtAVnLORvtnuNOq1bqDWz/s400/2012-Toyota-Prius-PHEV-performs-comfortable-driving-environment-completed-with-high-tech-interior-design.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><h2><span style="font-size: small;">Performance</span></h2>As with the entire Prius lineup, the 2012 Toyota Prius C is powered by both a traditional gasoline engine and a pair of electric motor-generators. The smaller Prius C makes do with smaller drivetrain components, however. Providing power to the wheels and generators is a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 73 horsepower and 82 pound-feet of torque. The two electric motor-generators bring the overall output total to 99 hp. A continuously variable transmission (CVT) routes power to the front wheels.<br /><br />In Edmunds testing, this Prius C accelerated from zero to 60 mph in a rather reluctant 11.3 seconds. Coming to a stop from that speed yielded much better results, as the car does the job in 118 feet, which is about average for compact cars. While power delivery is far from impressive, the crucial numbers here involve miles per gallon and the Prius C is definitely a champ in this respect. The EPA estimates 53 city/46 highway mpg and 50 mpg in combined driving, which is the highest rating in the EPA book for anything other than a high-tech plug-in hybrid. In our testing, we averaged 48.9 mpg.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjPCTxF-MAQZeE1NO6k2jvSg_UHhIR0Z5dQzUHTThx2EzrmQO5Q1mf751Tk6rs31eHcO-jGVta5dl4lrXpveBcTXHnjLgYQOADm8go0hvs25W4oHPm4UO3kZiNf-QciqaoNtwMncorHUrm/s1600/2012-toyota-prius-hybrid.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjPCTxF-MAQZeE1NO6k2jvSg_UHhIR0Z5dQzUHTThx2EzrmQO5Q1mf751Tk6rs31eHcO-jGVta5dl4lrXpveBcTXHnjLgYQOADm8go0hvs25W4oHPm4UO3kZiNf-QciqaoNtwMncorHUrm/s400/2012-toyota-prius-hybrid.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWyf7czF6nbZ0YzcpWp3iW62oKbPxPISaY3t5AeGl2auaKmP_VNyy0unMArbfJJkYGgM0aWhYcnH56kp-F7nnNMeIkdDr3kopFmZoFBZ2JeWyBIRM4SivhNWrYyn7VKBCLCoizoFNcovu_/s1600/53-toyota-prius-v.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWyf7czF6nbZ0YzcpWp3iW62oKbPxPISaY3t5AeGl2auaKmP_VNyy0unMArbfJJkYGgM0aWhYcnH56kp-F7nnNMeIkdDr3kopFmZoFBZ2JeWyBIRM4SivhNWrYyn7VKBCLCoizoFNcovu_/s400/53-toyota-prius-v.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm-Hk2BaoKaa5gDVdAqi3nczhq8BZvsUBhGi2Tk8tMLNXKRINa7rhhJ_fXeBlSITVKtaE0y0po29nvzy8qlgSBgSlw-R6KjaYCx9FkyE_ByjLWfG1uavjavyJtPskND4v1hRwMAUvGH-dZ/s1600/2012-toyota-prius-v-side-623x389.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="248" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm-Hk2BaoKaa5gDVdAqi3nczhq8BZvsUBhGi2Tk8tMLNXKRINa7rhhJ_fXeBlSITVKtaE0y0po29nvzy8qlgSBgSlw-R6KjaYCx9FkyE_ByjLWfG1uavjavyJtPskND4v1hRwMAUvGH-dZ/s400/2012-toyota-prius-v-side-623x389.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div><span style="font-size: small;">The trouble comes when you turn your calculating not to the similarly priced, lower-mpg Insight, but to the Yaris. The C's 17-mpg advantage (50 to 33 combined) comes at a premium of perhaps $4000. At $3.50 per gallon gas, that means it'll take exactly one zillion years of typical driving to pay it off. Relative to the medium-priced Prius, or Camry or Fusion Hybrids, both the Insight's and Prius C's hybridization premium seems to be a noticeably bigger proportion of their price.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div><div><div class="linkarticlefuture article_body_future mgn5_b"><span style="font-size: small;">Getting from the here to there of needing an inexpensive, high mileage car to driving home in a Prius C is like stepping across a wide stream where you'll need to rest your weight on a few specific rocks in between. Presumably, one of them is isolating yourself against gas price shocks. Maybe another is caring greatly about CO2 emissions. But one rock ought to be that the car drives adequately well. As the Insight discovered, these stepping stones are sometimes slippery. And that'll be a challenge for the Prius C as well.source:thecarconnection.com,edmunds.com,motortrend.com</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_QGoHSwHB0UXC3AIZ3oAGhshvmztj6OfXsFoWJBNyV8lKg6wC_gzjYccLsgyOq2-jDOKUGQUJBaYgQcxrPnIrNdDgDLJHduOA0Bl4J7QHmmYa5aX_M-2NfCdSdk52hhV4QgcWMBhP1fru/s1600/2012-Toyota-Prius-V.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="243" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_QGoHSwHB0UXC3AIZ3oAGhshvmztj6OfXsFoWJBNyV8lKg6wC_gzjYccLsgyOq2-jDOKUGQUJBaYgQcxrPnIrNdDgDLJHduOA0Bl4J7QHmmYa5aX_M-2NfCdSdk52hhV4QgcWMBhP1fru/s400/2012-Toyota-Prius-V.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiz6SqO1rU9I1zT5cHbAlldOnT3A7WSsHYo4tmgE3ZEx_4ft1MNhQZ3oM4bn0bLNSdcivKlMeS0IsGQITyvraIdic7jRGLXpgi232ElM-1BH03jcnaj-KjAyKBLfGWL4_k_BNO62xX8QrjO/s1600/2012_Toyota_Prius_V_02-prv.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="256" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiz6SqO1rU9I1zT5cHbAlldOnT3A7WSsHYo4tmgE3ZEx_4ft1MNhQZ3oM4bn0bLNSdcivKlMeS0IsGQITyvraIdic7jRGLXpgi232ElM-1BH03jcnaj-KjAyKBLfGWL4_k_BNO62xX8QrjO/s400/2012_Toyota_Prius_V_02-prv.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></div><div class="linkarticlefuture article_body_future mgn5_b"><br /></div></div><br /><div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"><br /></div></div>

Potential changes include "slightly smaller" headlights, and "more traditional SUV proportions," according to the magazine's source.<br /><br />We hope Bentley goes a bit further and just starts from scratch, dumping the sedan-ified SUV look entirely. If Bentley is bound and determined to sell an SUV, it should come up with something distinctive for the brand that doesn't just ape the classic look of its car line.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjykOPgr6pooYJnpDAJjQq1Bu1isNCFJ7nejuYjjzn6RW8gzW09iCenAJcgW8lFwNOsF0JFqzuP1-_2zyNe5wPQyyrn_G7hwZiSMwb8KPHZ0Li8JDi8HJff158FA55ps2okR8cLbvzjt-ji/s1600/2012-Bentley-SUV-in-Geneva-Front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="238" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjykOPgr6pooYJnpDAJjQq1Bu1isNCFJ7nejuYjjzn6RW8gzW09iCenAJcgW8lFwNOsF0JFqzuP1-_2zyNe5wPQyyrn_G7hwZiSMwb8KPHZ0Li8JDi8HJff158FA55ps2okR8cLbvzjt-ji/s400/2012-Bentley-SUV-in-Geneva-Front.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBRAucLey2WKLGvxClU2gn0OhBl-rI2H3Vgn17hRBENTVBrzkPYzNqSPjHV75GvmvYVdHWuUpcWck1cOGqf9uLzTneN0ZXkAeQ6t1bCvuXlwyV9ry-13jHxE6AwCdTgWEabfV2SGrVUwxL/s1600/bentley-suv-2012.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBRAucLey2WKLGvxClU2gn0OhBl-rI2H3Vgn17hRBENTVBrzkPYzNqSPjHV75GvmvYVdHWuUpcWck1cOGqf9uLzTneN0ZXkAeQ6t1bCvuXlwyV9ry-13jHxE6AwCdTgWEabfV2SGrVUwxL/s400/bentley-suv-2012.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNVhvb6wGRBj8GJKfAl8vJRunMjYhxQ6savi38OHIbWvoy7KJwGFklvROu_bwovQliZpE_yTn_zql8nyt-lvAYNo9iuL7r7cunUvH82t0bcazHa2MjNgt_RGKFEK_AsZfgP3vgIu-r8GRQ/s1600/geneva-2012-bentley-exp-9-f-suv-concept-live-photos_4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNVhvb6wGRBj8GJKfAl8vJRunMjYhxQ6savi38OHIbWvoy7KJwGFklvROu_bwovQliZpE_yTn_zql8nyt-lvAYNo9iuL7r7cunUvH82t0bcazHa2MjNgt_RGKFEK_AsZfgP3vgIu-r8GRQ/s400/geneva-2012-bentley-exp-9-f-suv-concept-live-photos_4.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />Naturally, the 9F comes with a 12-cylinder engine, although Bentley’s Peter Guest was quick to note a plug-in hybrid would be an option, were the behemoth to make it into production.

Maserati, for instance, already sells half as many Maserati GranTurismos in China as they do in the states. And Bentley, which saw a banner year in 2011, enjoys particularly brisk sales in China.<br />So from that perspective, the 9F makes a ton of sense (more like four tons, given the car’s dimensions). It’s perfect for a violently <em>nouveaux riche</em> market. It’s big, it’s brash and it’s completely obvious, a Continental GT on steroids.source:autoblog.com,caradvice.com.au,wired.com<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8gM1yiIylum57SBoyXzpc7c9cx9B5rdR_aG4_sdj1RdIepEcbjIo0KFjUoB6ZARc7wprLOtOSCns187FeD4zIKsKvw6NUnE93ZUlfo0JRyLEPVG_9RHJd7Uj96nsSXu93wPwHBEkWIKAX/s1600/Large+Image.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="223" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8gM1yiIylum57SBoyXzpc7c9cx9B5rdR_aG4_sdj1RdIepEcbjIo0KFjUoB6ZARc7wprLOtOSCns187FeD4zIKsKvw6NUnE93ZUlfo0JRyLEPVG_9RHJd7Uj96nsSXu93wPwHBEkWIKAX/s400/Large+Image.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuo369Q6iqW2aENp7Kxh6w44HEMRkwHz7UqZwKSgDcg7y9E3gON96sSv_SwTVIt7ZLxdGaXgRclXuUViSjnDcFPFuCtCfl4FFtLYYd7LvWLcxi2rmWuTAFcRiWYgxXoxgTdRSFYNV8DTnY/s1600/Bentley-suv-Exp9f-2-600x490.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="325" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuo369Q6iqW2aENp7Kxh6w44HEMRkwHz7UqZwKSgDcg7y9E3gON96sSv_SwTVIt7ZLxdGaXgRclXuUViSjnDcFPFuCtCfl4FFtLYYd7LvWLcxi2rmWuTAFcRiWYgxXoxgTdRSFYNV8DTnY/s400/Bentley-suv-Exp9f-2-600x490.jpg" width="400" /></a></div></div>

The gas/electric drivetrain allows for roughly 35 miles of driving range using electricity stored in a large lithium-ion battery before firing up a small, four-cylinder gas engine for another 300 miles of range. The dual power sources offer all of the incentives of driving an electric vehicle -- charging at home, cheap energy, and the potential for reduced emissions -- while eliminating the inconvenience of limited range and slow charging times that afflict pure electric vehicles. </span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnwkAPwCK_H_ZKbzrxY23LXlhNkc8zaAbhV7z0twEvTaw39unPpGk8GmTNu3pDmPMYC50dpzWSsnojpl4pfpPftKvi3AtRjPormzo6Cpvsu1HhzH7iczm4ef9VHKBFYIkGWko7hBuGQMNb/s1600/2012-Chevrolet-Volt-interior.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnwkAPwCK_H_ZKbzrxY23LXlhNkc8zaAbhV7z0twEvTaw39unPpGk8GmTNu3pDmPMYC50dpzWSsnojpl4pfpPftKvi3AtRjPormzo6Cpvsu1HhzH7iczm4ef9VHKBFYIkGWko7hBuGQMNb/s400/2012-Chevrolet-Volt-interior.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0G-KHTooXkZvTvJBzrjyVcZ9T3QXaPfu9-pPCoTZ1WGjwP8IetAg8IHccpRUotNFh4UzzboIH_PobkAyrtozAQJkXP3JW37o7ZBghlJPHMN5LuiVoT_WQH4A_APS2Mw8CnO3y4I7z9YvH/s1600/2012-Chevrolet-Volt-front-end-in-motion.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0G-KHTooXkZvTvJBzrjyVcZ9T3QXaPfu9-pPCoTZ1WGjwP8IetAg8IHccpRUotNFh4UzzboIH_PobkAyrtozAQJkXP3JW37o7ZBghlJPHMN5LuiVoT_WQH4A_APS2Mw8CnO3y4I7z9YvH/s400/2012-Chevrolet-Volt-front-end-in-motion.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options</b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div>The 2012 Chevrolet Volt is a midsize four-door hatchback sedan with seating for four.<br />Standard features include 17-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, heated mirrors, keyless ignition/entry, remote ignition, automatic climate control, cruise control, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, six-way manual front seats, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, cloth upholstery, Bluetooth, OnStar (with turn-by-turn navigation), MyLink (includes Bluetooth streaming audio, voice control for phone and audio functions and enhanced smartphone integration) and a six-speaker sound system with a CD player, auxiliary audio jack, iPod/USB interface and a touchscreen.<br /><br />The Premium Trim package adds leather upholstery, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and heated front seats.
