Well This is a news!

If priced properly, India will be greener very soon!
+ 1.

But Prius is more advanced than Hybrid civic which was launched in India so the costs will be high & the CBU import duty..so again the car will be 20 lakh +

Anyways at least they are coming up with a great product.

Prius - A Success or a Failiure?

Toyota Prius is a Good Car, But will it be successful in India or just another flop like Honda Civic Hybrid or Maini Reva Electric Vehicle?

Introducing such car in a developing market like of India is a sensitive task. Again, As a Completly Built Unit (CBU), It will be Higher than many C segment luxury models + The design of Prius is Cross-Over, Here what believed is - Small Price = Hatchback, Big Price = Saloon and this thingy lies somewhere between.

Any ways, It is going to be interesting to watch how Toyota handles their first this type of attempt in India. I wish all the luck!

Prius is an Sedan.

But how come you got confused with Hatch when there is a big boot behind ?

May be DId you asked about which Prius will be launched here :)

Prius is not a Hatch nor a Sedan. It is a cross-over design of both.

Toyota Kirloskar Launches Prius Hybrid!



Surprised? But this is true. Toyota has launched the Prius Hybrid cross-over hatchback at the on-going Auto Expo in Delhi. It is available in two variants which wears the price tag of Rs.
26.55 lakhs and 27.86 lakhs​
respectively.

Pricing of Prius can not be digested at once but the car will be a looker when running on streets by ones who really care for environment or maybe rather more for exclusivity!

Agree with Umangat 26 lacs even i too have doubts about its success. About the looks i find it very attractive but looks a bit similar to the ANHC when viewed from some angles.
