2024 Toyota Prius

Toyota’s complete redesign of the Prius gave it a sleeker look, more power, and incremental improvements in fuel economy. We measured 51 mpg with the AWD XLE version we tested. Front-drive versions are even more sparing with fuel. Although it delivers quicker acceleration than in the previous Prius, the engine is noisy when it kicks in. The car can propel itself on electric power alone at low speeds, light throttle situations up to about 25 mph. A plug-in hybrid is also available. Handling is tighter, making the car fairly nimble and the ride is firm yet steady. The low stance, curvy roof, and raked windshield compromise access and visibility. AEB with pedestrian detection, AEB highway, BSW, and RCTW come standard. Adaptive cruise control and lane centering assist are also standard on all trims.

Brand context

About Toyota

Toyota mostly fulfills its reputation for building efficient and exceptionally reliable vehicles. Most of their models do well in our testing, thanks to their impressive fuel economy, comfortable rides, quiet cabins, and ease of getting in and out. All of this makes Toyotas among the best options for used vehicles. The brand was a hybrid pioneer, starting with the original Prius. Toyota has evolved and expanded that technology, and most vehicles in its lineup are available as a hybrid. Toyota also sells a number of plug-in hybrids, which were once called Prime but are now simply referred to as Plug-in. The company also knows how to add a dose of excitement into its lineup. The GR86, GR Corolla, and Supra are legit, fun-to-drive sports cars. However, some models we’ve tested have been disappointing. The company’s EV, the bZ4X SUV, is mediocre.
