2011 Toyota Prius For Sale by Owner in Point Pleasant Beach, NJ

Buyers seeking to reduce their carbon footprint will find plenty of value in the 2011 Toyota Prius Three. This midlevel trim offers lots of standard comfort and convenience equipment, plus the fuel-sipping hybrid drivetrain that has made the Prius so successful.

The 2011 Prius Three features Toyota's now-famous Hybrid Synergy Drive, a two-mode gas-and-electric powertrain that delivers over 50 mpg in city driving. While its gasoline engine makes just 98 hp, the Prius Three's high-torque electric motor helps move the little hybrid along with traffic quite well. A continuously variable automatic transmission drives the front wheels, while the regenerative disc brakes can recover friction energy and use it to recharge the battery.

Inside, the 2011 Prius Three offers space for five and a healthy dose of standard equipment. Keyless entry and push-button start are included, as are automatic climate control and power accessories. The six-speaker stereo features acoustics by specialist JBL and offers Bluetooth phone connectivity and standard XM satellite radio.
