Leonardo DiCaprio has shown his unwavering love for Blake Lively by investing in an eco-friendly Prius.
The lead actor in Inception was apparently taken aback when he found out that the actress was using a gas-guzzling Range Rover to drive around Los Angeles.
There are rumors that Leonardo DiCaprio, who founded his own charity organization to promote environmental awareness, spent more than $40,000 on a black Prius.

DiCaprio, who has his own nonprofit that advocates for environmental causes, reportedly paid over $4.9 million for Lively’s black Prius.
The new motor has a low key. Blake Lively hid behind a large cushion when she landed at Los Angeles International Airport yesterday night.
In contrast, the eco-friendly hybrid vehicle may achieve up to 50 miles per gallon, whilst the Range Rover only manages an average of 20 mpg.
Leonardo DiCaprio is well-known in Hollywood for his support of environmental issues.
The 36-year-old actor participated in a campaign launched by Global Green USA just two years ago by driving a Prius to the Academy Awards in an attempt to raise awareness of the problem of global warming.
He called the Prius a “step in the right direction” and was among the first Hollywood A-list celebrities to buy one.

The actor said, “It is a gasoline-electric midsize car that gets about 50 miles per gallon,” during the interview. With today’s technology, every car produced in the United States of America could be just as affordable, fuel-efficient, and environmentally friendly as they already are.
It became public knowledge this week that he had accepted delivery of a $100,000 hybrid supercar, a 2012 Fisker Karma.
The hybrid car can accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than six seconds and reach a top speed of 125 miles per hour. It can also return 100 miles per gallon of fuel.
For some months, Lively, a 23-year-old actress from Gossip Girl and The Town, has been romantically involved with actor Leonardo DiCaprio. Following the actor’s breakup with model Bar Rafaeli, this has happened.
