MANAGE SUBSCRIPTIONS   |   UNSUBSCRIBE   |   VIEW ONLINE   The new Prius just blew through a long-standing Consumer Reports record by Tom Mutchler on May 25, 2016, 12:32 PM The redesigned 2016 Toyota Prius not only easily tops its previous-generation's fuel economy, but also goes farther on a gallon of gasoline than any vehicle Consumer Reports has ever tested. By their measurements, it chalked up 52 miles per gallon (mpg) overall. That figure tops the previous-generation Prius' 44 mpg, and bests the original Honda Insight's 51 mpg from way back in 2000.   Video courtesy of Consumer Reports Follow BI Video: On Twitter   Share the latest business news with your network: Email sent to:   |   Manage your email preferences   |   Unsubscribe Terms of Service   |   Privacy Policy Business Insider. 150 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10011
