Wow while everybody in the world are giving incentives we give more taxes to eco friendly vehicles ..Well done Philippines let’s be happy with 30 years vehicles going around our streets and polluting.

I live in italy and you can get a prius with 1.1 million.

Other countries selling the Prius for P1,000,000!!! How come we cant? because the legislators are still thinking whats in it for them. Lets not forget Toyota Philippines…even if you remove the taxes we will still end up around P1.7M for the unit….thats a P700,000 difference from retail of other countries. Everyone should do their part to make this work. Hindi lang government, hindi lang Toyota…pati tayo dapat. Magbigay kaya tayo ng check amounting to 1M proof that we are willing to buy as long as they bring the cost down hehe..as the comment box said, speak your mind.

Please make this car as affordable as affordable.

This would be a way to lessen the not-so-good greenhouse gases and pollutants that destroy our nature.

For the TONGGRESSMAN, please help us realize our dreams of having clean air and ultimately habitable place to live in – this also is my Earth.

I appreciate that Toyota has introduced the Prius in RP. Unfortunately, the government is not helping in making this hybrid a serious consideration for those thinking of getting a value for your money car. They are always trying to push for alternative sources of energy and yet the price is too expensive. For that price you get 2 good gas/diesel cars/SUV/AUV. You may even stretch it to 3 good ones.

What the government says and what they do regarding alternative sources of energy are way way different.

As for Toyota, I do hope they don’t “overprice” this and be opportunistic, since based on the price of the Prius abroad. This local price is way over…
