prius
Fuel-efficient hatchback
Prius is a hybrid car model made by Toyota, introduced in 1997 as one of the first mass-produced hybrid vehicles.
The name has become somewhat generic for hybrid cars generally.
Prius drivers are stereotyped as environmentally conscious, sometimes smugly so: He drives a Prius and won't let you forget it.
