Pruis 2010 Vs CT 200h Same machine, slightly more expensive! Should I drive a Toyota or add money to Lexus? Here is the answer
Looking at the $ 20,000-a-year hybrid market, only two models were found, the 2010 Prius and the 2011 CT 200h as cousins. And even though there are only two options, it is still difficult to choose from the riders because the two cars are very similar.
1. Design
This point is important and must be considered first, because even if the features are good, if you do not like the appearance, we should not be forced to ride with them. Both cars are the same hatchback, but the Pruis seems to have more butt than the CT200h.
For love, satisfaction is according to individual preferences. The interior is almost completely different, with the CT 200h being more luxurious because it is a Lexus brand, but the Pruis center screen looks a bit more modern. The front seat of the Tai Kong car has a rear height adjustment button, the rear height is optional, unlike the Pruis, which has some options that do not yet use the power button.
2. Size
Of course, before buying a car, the size is also an interesting point, although both cars are the same size. In terms of appearance, we see that the 2010 Pruis seems to be slightly larger than the CT 200h, and in fact the Pruis is actually much larger in terms of cabin height, footrests and luggage compartments. At this point, Pruis gets more points.
3. Machine
According to the announcement, they both use the same engine, the same battery is the Hybrid 1.8L, but in fact the engine on the CT200h can produce a total of 134 horsepower, while the 2010 Pruis can only produce 121 horsepower. For those who want a more powerful engine, the Lexus is a good choice, but its fuel economy may vary accordingly.
4. Additional technology
The highlight of Pruis 2010 is that it has many options known as Option 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. This means that Pruis can be more tailored to the budget of the user, for example, if you have a thin budget, you can find the lower option, and if you have more money, you can find the higher option.
In addition to other features, Pruis also has a lot, such as solar roof and Plugin Hybrid function that allows us to charge from home and drive with pure electricity for about 30 to 40 kilometers. Please note that these functions are not available on CT200h.
5. Lower leg
For practical driving, Lexus is definitely more comfortable than Toyota. In fact, the lower legs of the two cars are quite different, with the CT200h using the lower legs on all four wheels, unlike the Pruis, which uses the bat wings only on the front wheels.
But it also has its pros and cons, as the underside of the bat is softer than a light ride but can not carry heavy loads, while Pruis, although slightly bumpy, can carry more.
All in all, for those on a budget, the Lexus is a good choice for both luxury and compact power, but for those who want more space, savings, a solar roof option and charging technology, the Pruis is a great choice. Well, on the other hand, it is also cheaper.
