The Toyota Prius has been the poster child for “green cars” since it burst onto the US market in 2000 with a bit of a clunky, boxy design and an entirely new way of doing things. Times have changed, thankfully, and the 2016 Toyota Prius is a little more hip, happening, and aerodynamic. As a way to highlight the aerodynamic design language of the 2016 Prius, Toyota has taken a unique approach: it has engineered the world’s first Prius Piano, an LED wind tunnel piano that shows off the aerodynamic body of the 2016 Prius by sending ribbons of light cascading around it. The results are truly visually stunning but the best seat in the house will always be the driver’s seat! Check it out below.
The video above is a 360° video, so you can use your mouse to click and “grab” the video box to look around the frame at the sportier, more sweptback design that defines the 2016 Toyota Prius, a sharp contrast to the boxy model that originally dominated the American market. The video also takes you inside the 2016 Prius, where you can almost experience the rejuvenated design of the front interior, bask in the luxury of the available high-quality cabin appointments, and watch as the Prius Piano dances colorful light beams around the vehicle like its own personal lightshow. It’s quite breathtaking to see the Toyota Prius’ aerodynamic form from that perspective, but like we said above, the real show begins when you’re seated in the driver’s seat of a Prius of your own.
The 2016 Toyota Prius is more attractive than ever with its aerodynamic design language, and with gas prices ever in flux, you can always pad yourself from the mercy of the market by choosing a hybrid vehicle like the Prius.
