Toyotas third generation Prius is now available with a new safety pack option, which includes LED low-beam car lights.

According to Toyota, the low-beam LED headlights give the Prius a "distinctive, premium appearance".

"As well as being stylish, they last significantly longer than conventional halogen bulbs and high-intensity discharge lights," a statement from the company said.

It went on to say that these lights come with integrated  headlamp washers and an automatic dusk-sensing function.

Also included in the safety pack is a pre-crash safety (PCS) system and adaptive cruise control.

The latter uses a radar system to automatically adjust the vehicles speed to ensure it remains a set, safe distance from the car ahead.
