The gen III Prius has a 1.8L 98 HP engine and does 0-60 in about 10.5 seconds. By US standards that's somewhat slow.
I would think a 3 cylinder 1L engine could be paired with a plug-in hybrid drivetrain that could be both more efficient, and output more total power over some short period of time; say under 5 minutes. It would be both quicker and more fuel efficient.
