The following is an extract from the Prius user guide.Sorry I didn't have time to scan it.

Key specifications

Gasoline engine : 76hp, 1.5l Aluminium alloy engine

Electric motor : 67hp, permanant magnet motor

and it also states,

During full accelaration, such as climbing a hill, both the gasolene engine and the electric motor power the vehicle.

dude... you sound desperate... just.. seriously...

a hybrid will always be a hybrid no matter how much HP they got...

everyone trying to get the best KMPL and ruin others life's..

i dont know whether this should come under this topic, i have been wondering whether is it ok to change the wheels(alloy wheel) in hybrid vehicles such as in Civic( its looks damn ugly)

you know you can click on that plus next to my post! :P and i dint get a answer for my question :(

Sorry mate, If you do a search you'll get your answer.But at the moment there's some problem with the web site so you can try it later.

In my opinion modifications to hybrid car wheels are not recommended. better to stick to the manufacturer's recomendations.

oh so u bought a pri-ass because u don't like Horsepower.. really?

You're being a little to vehement and its not coming off well. You should know, plenty of people just want cars for their A-to-B running, not for fun. That's why the Corolla and now the Prius sold so much. Just don't bother with those people.

Toyota to recall some hybrids, especially SUVs!!!!

http://www.freep.com/article/20110630/BUSINESS01/106300518/Toyota-recall-hybrid-SUVs

"The car giant said the recall will involve Highlander and Lexus-brand hybrid SUVs from its 2006 and 2007 lines. The action covers just the vehicles sold in the U.S., with no other models affected"

seems like it wont affect the domestic models running in SL, but there will be an impact on the second hand market of hybrids.

It the Prius apparently the wheels and the wheel cups are used for aero dynamic efficiency, so it's not advisable to swap but haven't heard anything about the civic. Do a bit of research on Google before going ahead with the swap.
