The Prius has a 70hp petrol motor and a 70hp electric motor.


So with 140 hp, despite being light and with a good CD, it can only manage
0-60 in 12 seconds and 100 mph?

Think they calim 122bhp now... but its only 78 of your real bhp though -
since the engine is the only source of power ultimately. The claimed
output can only be sustained until the batteries are low on juice. An
enthusiastic drive round some B roads ought to see to that ;-)
