Opting for fuel efficiency used to mean sacrificing style, but the revamped Toyota Prius sets out to change that perception. With its front-wheel drive and 194 horsepower, the new Prius is a blend of performance and eco-friendliness. An all-wheel-drive option is available, boasting a slight increase in power to 196 horsepower. For those seeking a plug-in hybrid, there's the 220-hp Prius Prime, reviewed separately. This iteration of the Prius is not only sleeker and more enjoyable to drive but also achieves better fuel economy, boasting an EPA-estimated 56-mpg highway rating. As compact competitors follow suit by incorporating hybrid powertrains, such as the Hyundai Elantra hybrid and Toyota's own Corolla hybrid, with a hybridized Honda Civic on the horizon, the Prius stands out as a cool and enjoyable choice. Its accolades include a 10Best Cars award for 2024 and a spot on our 2024 Editors Choice list.
Pricing and Recommendations.
The 2024 Toyota Prius is priced between $29,045 and $36,060, depending on the trim and options selected. Known for its outstanding fuel economy, the Prius delivers on its promise of environmental friendliness. Equipped with a robust lineup of safety features and additional amenities, the Prius remains a top choice for those prioritizing efficiency without compromising on comfort. Base models come equipped with 17-inch wheels, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, and a reasonable starting price.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance.
The Toyota Prius lineup features a single powertrain—a 194-hp hybrid setup comprising a 2.0-liter hybrid inline-four gasoline engine borrowed from the Corolla Cross hybrid crossover, paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive comes standard, while all-wheel-drive models incorporate a high-output permanent magnet electric motor on the rear axle, boosting the total powertrain output to 196 horsepower. Accelerating from 0 to 60 mph, which previously took an exhausting 10.5 seconds in last year's Prius, now takes just 7.1 seconds, according to tests of a front-drive Limited model. This acceleration surpasses both the Camry Hybrid and Elantra Hybrid. With larger front and rear brakes, the new Prius also boasts improved stopping distances from 70 mph, reducing it to just 171 feet compared to the previous 194 feet.
Toyota Prius MPG.
The EPA estimates the Prius achieves 57 mpg in the city and 56 mpg on the highway for front-wheel-drive models, marking a 4- and 6-mpg improvement, respectively, over the previous generation. The all-wheel-drive LE variant sees the most significant fuel-economy boost, increasing from 49 to 54 mpg combined compared to the prior model.
