Silent vehicles are now increasingly popular, and vehicles with a traditional internal combustion engine where engine noise has been minimized by noise-absorbing materials in the engine bay, and noise-canceling muffler systems often lack aural signals.
In July 2007, a Toyota spokesman said the company was aware of the problem and studied options. In 2002, the Washington Post prompted the vast number of Prius-owned progressive celebrities to dub hybrids “Hollywood’s latest politically correct status symbol” Conservatives dubbed “Prius Patriots” often drive cars because they want to contribute to reducing U.S. dependency on foreign oil.

The Prius Prime has a combined hybrid fuel economy rated by the EPA of 54 mpg U.S. (4.4 L/100 km), 55 mpg U.S. (4.3 L/100 km) in urban driving, and 53 mpg U.S. (4.4 L/100 km) in highway driving. Toyota specifies a polyol ester oil (ND11) necessary for repairs. When filling, the oil supplied from maintenance facilities must contain less than 0.1 percent PAG. 1 percent PAG oil may result in a drop in electrical resistance.
