Toyota announced Friday that the U.S. price of the 2012 Prius Plug-in Hybrid hatchback (above) will start at $32,000. Toyota will begin taking online orders next month for 14 launch states (California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Maine, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, and Virginia), with customer deliveries slated for next March. The plug-in vehicle is expected to qualify for a federal tax credit of approximately $2,500. The Prius Plug-in Hybrid will feature a new lithium-ion battery that will supplement the fuel economy of the regular hybrid Prius with an extended 
electric-only driving range of up to 15 miles at a maximum speed of 62 mile-per-hour. By Toyota estimates, it will deliver an estimated 87 miles per gallon equivalent (MPGe). When operating in hybrid mode, it's expected to achieve 49 MPGe. The Prius Plug-in will offer a relatively short charging time of three hours using a standard 120-volt outlet or 1.5 hours using 240V.
The 2012 Prius V midsize wagon (below) will start at $26,400, begin appearing in showrooms next month and will be offered in three trim levels: Prius V Two ($26,400), Three ($27,165), and Five ($29,990). The Prius V wagon achieves EPA fuel economy ratings of 44 miles per gallon city, 40 mpg highway and 42 mpg combined -- the highest fuel efficiency of any crossover, SUV or wagon on the market.
