Boaz, AL -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/21/2012 -- Motorists have a tendency to measure the performance of their cars and compare it to other vehicles when meeting at a stop light. With the Eco Savings feature in the 2012 Toyota Prius c, Sand Mountain Toyota customers can find out who has the bigger MPG regardless of where they are on the road.

The Eco Savings feature of the Prius c expands upon the technology of its Prius predecessors. Whereas previous versions monitored fuel consumption from completed trips, Eco Savings follows what is happening in real time. An integrated dashboard display shows how much drivers are spending on fuel and is capable of comparing that cost to another car.

By simply entering the current price of gas and the efficiency rating of the opposition, the Toyota Prius c can show its drivers how much they are saving and silence almost any other driver who dares to rev his engine in the next lane. The Eco Savings feature is capable of monitoring the energy savings of two separate trips.
