All New 2024 Toyota Prius Facelift Limited

Fifth-gen Prius gets strong hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrain options, all-new design and more safety tech.
The new Prius, thanks to its stylish design, now has an even more coupe-like appearance. Its design is in line with Toyota’s newer models and has styling cues from the new bZ full-EV range and also some design elements from the recently unveiled Crown. The full-width LED light bar at the rear is also impossible to ignore. It's lower, wider and has a longer wheelbase than the current Prius. The overall length is shorter, though. The new Prius' interior is inspired by the bZ4X EV SUV and has dedicated floating screens for infotainment and instrumentation. The dashboard now incorporates a warning system that will flash the ambient lights to alert the driver when objects are detected close to the car.
Toyota will sell the Prius only as a plug-in Hybrid in the European market. The powertrain includes a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine with a total output of 220 horsepower. This is a 99hp improvement over the outgoing model’s electrically assisted 1.8-litre engine that churns out 121hp.
The new European-spec Prius gets a 13.6kWa battery, which is located underneath the rear seats. Toyota has announced that the model has 50 percent more full-EV range than its predecessor, which could be around 90km as opposed to around 60km earlier. Toyota will also offer the Prius plug-in with an optional solar roof panel.
