Salt Lake City Car Dealers Outshine Competition in Energy Efficiency

The American Counsel for an Energy Efficient Economy (ACEEE) releases a list of the 12 greenest cars of the current model year. The ACEEE determines which cars qualify for the list by examining fuel economy, the impact of energy in the production of the vehicle, emissions and the car's environmental impact. With the fierce competition from the 2011 model year, the ACEEE's list was more exclusive than ever barely making room for the all new, last place Chevy Volt, which came very close to not making the list.

Despite the steep competition and new hybrid competitors, the Prius landed a top five spot on the list. Available at your Salt Lake City car dealers, the poster child of sustainable mobility has continuously been praised for its impressive fuel efficiency combined with its stimulating drive performance. More than its eco-friendly appeal is the car's sleek, attractive styling and practical, driver oriented interior.

The Prius first hit your Salt Lake City used car dealer a decade ago and has remained a favorite among consumers based in large part because of its fuel economy ratings. The Prius is rated at 48 mpg in the city and 45 mpg on the highway making it an ideal car to battle the consistently rising gas prices. The Prius is powered by a combination of a 1.8-liter four cylinder engine and an electric engine which deliver a powerful performance lacking in so many other hybrids.

The Prius stands out at your Salt Lake City dealer from other hybrids because of its elegant, simple design. While most hybrids look like they should be driven by a cartoon character, the Prius's sharp lines and sleek body are styling features hard to come by in a hybrid. The car's wide, bold grille highlights the projector headlights which emphasize the Prius's wide stance. The sporty rear spoiler and the short overhangs give the rear section of the Prius create a modern allure. The car's extended roofline creates an aerodynamic profile that contributes to the spacious interior.

Another reason the Prius continues to lure Utah residents to their Salt Lake City used car dealers is the surprisingly spacious interior that fits five comfortably. Despite the more than adequate interior space for passengers, cargo capacity is also impressive measuring at 16 cubic feet which increases even more with the 60/40 split rear seats folded down. The layout of the digital instrument panel is accommodating to drivers and easy to read while the controls placed on the steering wheel make for easy access. The DVD-based navigation, iPod connectivity, lane keep assist and dynamic radar cruise control are additional features that make the Prius one of the most driver oriented, modern hybrid.

While it's no surprise that the Prius made the ACEEE's list of the Greenest Cars of the Year, it is the combination of the car's eco-friendly allure, sedan like performance and attractive styling and design. Whether on the market for a new or used car, Prius is an ideal option for those opting to go green. Visit your Salt Lake City dealer for more information or to test drive a car.
