Although pricing for the new vehicles has not been announced, the Prius is expected to cost more than the Insight. Only time will tell which vehicle will prove to be more popular.

Toyota's Lexus division also adds a new wrinkle to the competition with the debut of the first dedicated luxury hybrid. The 2010 HS 250h, available in late summer, combines a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine with a hybrid system to generate a combined 187 horsepower. The vehicle will be the most fuel-efficient in the Lexus lineup, but Toyota has not released an estimated fuel economy or price for the new vehicle. The HS 250h is considered to be an entry-level vehicle for the luxury market.
