1. Powerful Efficiency

As the world’s first mass-produced hybrid vehicle, the Prius has a legacy of innovation that continues today. Front-wheel drive models deliver 194 net horsepower, while all-wheel drive models produce 196 horsepower and a 0 to 60 mph time of just 7.0 seconds. The Prius also has a fully independent suspension with front and rear stabilizer bars for agile handling.


2. Safe Exit Alert

The Prius comes standard with a long list of advanced driver assistance features to help protect you and your passengers on the road. Its Safe Exit Alert even looks out for you after you’ve shut off the engine, scanning the road behind you for vehicles that may be approaching. This system’s warnings can help you and your passengers exit only after it’s safe to do so.


3. Top-Mount Digital Gauge Cluster

Every aspect of the Prius’s five-passenger cabin is thoughtfully designed, with features like six USB-C charge ports conveniently located so that every passenger can charge their devices. To make important driving information easier to see and help drivers keep their eyes on the road, the digital gauge cluster located above the steering wheel. This display doesn’t just show your speedometer and fuel gauge; it can also show the outside temperature, driver assistance information, and fuel economy.


4. Remote Connect

Did you forget where you parked your car? With the Prius’s 1-year complimentary subscription to Remote Connect, you won’t have to search through a vast parking lot to find your vehicle. Just open up the Toyota app on your phone to pinpoint its location on a map. You can even turn on the hazard lights and sound the horn to make it easier to find. With Remote Connect, you can also remotely start the engine, lock the doors, and more.


5. Illumination Notification

Standard on XLE, Nightshade Edition, and Limited grades, the Prius’s Illumination Notification provides a subtle reminder when it’s time to start moving again from a stop. After the system detects the vehicle ahead of yours departing, the cabin’s accent lighting illuminates, helping you bring your attention back to the road ahead.
