Toyota Motor Sales USA has unveiled the all-new 2010 Prius hybrid vehicle at the 2009 North American International Auto Show.

The all-new 2010 Prius is powered by a larger and more powerful 1.8-liter Atkinson-cycle, four-cylinder engine producing 98HP at 5,200rpm and 105lb-ft of torque at 4,000rpm.

The 2010 Prius grows 0.6 inches longer and 0.8 inches wider than the previous model. Toyota promises increased cargo space in the hatchback because of a redesigned cooling system for the hybrid's batteries. Rear legroom increases slightly because of redesigned front seatbacks.

In addition to its hybrid system, the Prius adds new features including adaptive cruise control and a lane-departure warning system.

Power comes from a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine and an electric motor.
