Toyota Motor Corp for some reason postponed the production procedure of the next-gen Prius. The production will start from the coming spring till 2015 December. The upcoming Prius is the fourth gen model and will come with extra choice options. Customers can choose from lithium ion pack or low priced nickel metal hydride unit. The choice of battery packages was confirmed by the senior managing officer in charge of engine development, Koei Saga. The other additional option is the fitment of front all wheel drive system and Saga is positive of the outcome.

It will fall into the next Prius category that will fall a wider network of vehicles in terms of body configuration and variant type. The new series of hybrid vehicles will be inscribed with the advancements of engineering technology in terms of lightness, smaller size and fuel efficiency. The bigger vehicles will have new design concepts.
The interesting part of next-gen Prius is the usage of two battery units, Toyota aims to engineer a potent nickel metal hydride battery that has undergone several clinical trials. Prius runs on conventional and hybrid fuel, the incorporation of nickel metal hydride battery is to have a model that runs only on electric engine.
