Priority
We have two cars in my company, one is an echo friendly car and the other is a luxury car.
Employees cannot use this luxury car unless the echo friendly car is available.
In this case, how do I use the word 'priority' to say this situation?
We have two cars but the echo friendly car is used in priority.
Could you pleas amend my sentece?

No, priority doesn't work here, because the car has no 'rights'-- you are talking of a responsibility on the part of the users. And it's ' eco- friendly'. And I presume that you mean ' un available'.

Thanks, MM.
Got it!
I have to relearn the 'unless' usage and check the spellings. I'm relieved to hear even a native speaker can't think of the word. Direct translation is impossible; I was trying to translate a short Japanese term.
