    Frequently Asked Questions

    The Toyota Prius Prime offers an electric-only driving range of up to 72 kilometers on a full charge, allowing for efficient short-distance travel without engaging the gasoline engine.
    Using a standard household outlet (120V), the Prius Prime's battery can be fully charged in approximately 2 hours 30 minutes. With a 240V Level 2 charger, the charging time reduces to about 4 hours.
    While the Toyota Prius Prime can operate in electric-only mode, it is essential to have gasoline in the tank. The vehicle requires gasoline to operate properly and to seamlessly switch to hybrid mode when the battery is depleted.
    Combining both electric and gasoline power, the Toyota Prius Prime offers a total driving range of up to 962 kilometers, making it suitable for both daily commutes and longer trips.
    The Toyota Prius Prime accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in approximately 7.2 seconds, providing a responsive driving experience.
    In hybrid mode, the Toyota Prius Prime achieves an EPA-estimated combined fuel economy of 4.7 liters per 100 kilometers (50 miles per gallon).
    Individual purchasers of a Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid vehicle may be eligible for federal tax credits. The Prius Plug-in may qualify for an additional state tax credit in addition to the federal credit.
    The 2025 Toyota Prius Prime is available in SE, XSE, and XSE Premium trims. The XSE trim includes features such as keyless entry, a power tailgate, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and heated front seats.
    Owners have reported that the Toyota Prius Prime offers a smooth and quiet ride, with minimal wind and tire noise, especially when operating in electric mode.
    The Toyota Prius Prime comes with a standard 120V charging cable that can be plugged into a household outlet. For faster charging, it is compatible with 240V Level 2 charging stations.

    Pros & Cons

    Pros:

    The Toyota Prius Prime delivers outstanding fuel economy, with an estimated 4.5 L/100 km (52 MPG) combined efficiency and a 72 km electric-only range on a full charge. This makes it one of the best plug-in hybrid options for fuel-conscious drivers.
    With a 220-horsepower hybrid powertrain, the Toyota Prius Prime is the most powerful Prius to date. It can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 7.2 seconds, making it noticeably quicker than previous generations.
    The latest generation of the Toyota Prius Prime is sleek and stylish, with a low-slung aerodynamic profile, a coupe-like silhouette, and striking LED lighting. This is a significant departure from the traditional Prius look.
    The interior features soft-touch materials, an ergonomic seating position, and a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto. Heated and ventilated seats add to the comfort.
    The Toyota Prius Prime comes with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, and emergency braking. The traffic jam assist even allows for hands-free driving in slow-moving traffic.
    A lower center of gravity, wider track, and improved suspension make the Prius Prime more engaging to drive than before. It feels more composed on highways and in corners than previous models.
    The optional solar roof can contribute a few extra kilometers of battery range per day, especially in sunny locations. It also helps power some interior electronics.

    Cons

    The sloping roofline reduces rear headroom, making it less comfortable for taller passengers. The cargo space is smaller than the previous generation, at 20.3 cubic feet due to the larger battery placement.
    Unlike the standard hybrid Prius, the Toyota Prius Prime is only available in front-wheel drive (FWD). This limits its appeal for drivers in snowy or off-road conditions.
    The Toyota Prius Prime only supports Level 1 and Level 2 charging, with a full charge taking 2.5 hours on a Level 2 charger. There’s no option for DC fast charging, unlike many other plug-in hybrids.
    The speed limit warning beeps and driver attention alerts can be excessive, often requiring deep menu navigation to disable them. Some drivers find these safety reminders intrusive.
    The Toyota Prius Prime starts at $40,050 CAD for SE trim, $44,800 CAD for XSE and $48,600 CAD for XSE Premium, making it significantly more expensive than the standard hybrid Toyota Prius. However, its plug-in capability and additional tech features justify the price for many buyers.
