Toyota Prius: retrofitting cruise control
The Prius is the private hire car. Drivers cover huge distances in them, often on airport runs and long contract jobs. If yours lacks cruise, that is hours every shift with your foot pressed down.
The private hire workhorse
Taxi and private hire drivers chose the Prius for its running costs and reliability, and many have covered enormous mileages. A big share of those miles are long motorway trips, which is where cruise makes the job far less tiring.
Long shifts, sore legs
Heathrow drops, school contract work and late-night fares all put strain on a driver. Keeping an even pace by foot through every one of them is the kind of small strain that piles up over a week.
Working with the hybrid system
Our module takes the Prius's own network data and uses it to hold speed, so it cooperates with the hybrid drive rather than pulling at a throttle. The Chorley factory builds your unit. Fleet operators can order for several cars at once, each unit matched to its own vehicle.

Questions about the Toyota Prius
- Does it suit the plug-in Prius too?
- Say whether yours plugs in or is a regular hybrid, along with its year. The engineer checks that specific car.
- I run several Prius taxis. Is a batch order possible?
- Yes. Give a headcount and the details of each car, and every Prius is programmed individually.
- Does it affect the hybrid battery or engine?
- No. Its job is speed control alone, worked out from messages the Prius already sends.
