See detailed interior and exterior photos of the new plug-in-hybrid Prius, which is redesigned for 2023 and now makes 220 horsepower.
Toyota claims that the new Prime will offer 50 percent more electric-only driving range than before, which means it will go around 38 miles on a charge.
Detailed battery specs aren’t available yet, but the lithium-ion battery pack is larger than in the standard hybrid model.
The 2023 Prius Prime looks pretty much identical to the standard hybrid model, unlike the previous car which had different front- and rear-end styling.
Likewise, the Prime’s interior gets the same makeover as the standard Prius. A 12.3-inch touchscreen is optional on the higher trims.
Toyota claims that the Prime is the quickest of all the Prius models, with a claimed sprint to 60 mph of just 6.6 seconds.
Because the Prime is pitched as the sportier Prius, it offers SE, XSE, and XSE Premium
Faux leather seats offer red accents for a slightly sportier vibe inside the cabin.
A fixed glass roof is available on the Prius Prime, but roof-mounted solar panels are also available as an option.
