All-New Toyota Prius review // A second look on the new Prius

Thias is a Motormouth couple car review of the all-new Toyota Prius compact hatchback hybrid.
The Toyota Prius has a 2L 4-cylinder matched to an e-CVT with a combined 196 horsepower for AWD and 194 horsepower for FWD models. The previous Toyota Prius model had 120 horsepower, that’s a 60% power boost. Standard AWD in Canada, FWD and AWD options are available on all trims in the US. There are two Toyota Prius trims in Canada and three in the US. Standard features in Canada include, an 8” touchscreen, 7” driver display, wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto, heated steering wheel, a power driver’s seat, manual passenger seat, heated front seats, Softex upholstery and Toyota Safety Sense 3.0.
In the US, since there is a more strip down base modelToyota Prius , moving up one from this trim will add many of these features.
Optional features include, the 12.3” touchscreen, driver seat memory, ventilated front seats, wireless charger, a panoramic view monitor, JBL sound system, the fixed glass roof, heated rear seats and a power tailgate.
The Toyota Prius AWD model gets excellent fuel economy, 4.8L/100 km, 49 MPG city And 4.7L/100 km, 50 MPG highway.
In Canada, the Prius starts at $39,625 CAD and the top Limited trim is $45,965 CAD. In the US, LE FWD $27,450 USD, AWD $28,850 USD, XLE FWD $30,895 USD AWD $32,295 USD, Limited FWD $34,465 USD, AWD $35,865 USD. We have the top trim Prius, priced at $45,965 CAD/$35,865 USD.
The top Toyota Prius is loaded with plenty of features including, the larger 12.3” touchscreen with wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto, a 7” digital driver display, wireless charger, a panoramic view monitor, heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated front seats, a power driver’s seat, manual passenger seat, SofTex upholstery, driver seat memory, the JBL sound system, heated rear seats, a fixed glass roof and a power liftgate.
In the US, there are some optional features on the top trim, heated rear seats and a panoramic view monitor are not standard.
The Toyota Prius gets a 60% power boost compared to the previous model. It has a 2L 4-cylinder matched to an e-CVT with a combined 196 horsepower for AWD and 194 horsepower for FWD models. Standard AWD in Canada, FWD and AWD options are available on all trims in the US.
Then there’s the fuel economy, this one is tough to beat, 4.8L/100 km, 49 MPG city
and 4.7L/100 km, 50 MPG highway.
The Toyota Prius is a great option, but if you are looking for a more budget friendly hybrid, check out the Corolla Hybrid, it may not have the power this Prius has, but the price point is very good as is the fuel economy.

You people are one of the best dressed and elegant reviewers out there.

[LiamG]

Amazing fuel economy and what a step up in styling. As always folks top notch review

[jackdaniels]

I like the Put it in S schtick, it's your thing. Keep it up. Great reviews.

[ae-ca]

I really like the exterior styling of this Prius. Not sure what took Toyota this long to design an attractive Toyota.

[davidiceton]

I always love the schtick 😄 The two of you always do such a great job!

[stevedolan]

Another fantastic review, the depth and quality of your work is top notch. And bonus points for your lively and humorous banter! Thank you, from SoCal!

[michaelgarvin]

Love the "Put it in S for Subcribe". Don't change a thing. Another great review!! 👍👍

[Now_or_Never_]

Zack’s facial expression on acceleration was classic 😂

[TeeLau]

Finally a review that demo the ingress and egress, you guys are the best. Oh and let's keep putting it in S.

[Soh]

I am still honestly shocked at how good this car is. Even with the A-Pillar quirk and the dash quirk, and the lack of headroom due to the design. I am HAPPY that designed something with character and didn’t just chase function over form. I think it’s a perfect balance.

[TTOCSSMITH]

Love the 'put it in S' and I've been watching since before Andrea (but it's even better watching now). Keep up the good work.

[nemanjatosovic]

I love the s-shtick, I do the little move along side zack almost every time

[timphillips]

This is a fabulous looking car and glad you got it back to test drive. Zack looked a bit figity with the excelleration from pull away, smart colour too 💙

[panarai_fan]

Thank you for the great review. The camera work & editing is excellent. Kudos to everybody involved. Getting in and out by tilting my head to the side would drive me nuts, Def not for me.

[georgeg.]

I drive 80% of the time with my windows down and arm hanging out sans a.c. and I live in FL. I'm glad you covered that. It would be a deal breaker for me.

[coy]

One thing I’ve never understood is why some vehicles have tiny back seat room. I’ve never heard someone say they wish they had 5 inches of extra cargo room but that would be amazing added to a back seat. Or make back beat slide and be adjustable. Nice to see Toyota giving decent room in the back.

[princeauska]

Well that’s rude! I love S for Subscribe! Love watching these videos. You guys go BEYOND excellent with the details, pricing, etc. I very much enjoy both of you adding information together and pointing out different aspects that one of you notice but the other doesn’t. Very well done. Perfect! 🖤

[alfywong]

lol 😂, Zacks facial expression when beginning of the video is priceless

[Redbud-ij]

It is good to see improvements in the overall styling appearance. Not a vehicle for taller and/or older people...

I spent close to 20 minutes at the dealer trying to find the right driving position. Granted, I have mutant long legs. But if I had the right spot for the instrument cluster, the B pillar was in the way (so was the A pillar). If I placed the seat not to be blinded by the B pillar, the wheel was right in front of the instrument cluster.

When the dealer told me I MIGHT get a 2024 model (most probably a 2025), I tapped out and pulled the trigger on a RAV4 Woodland sitting inexplicably at the dealer.

Ok, the RAV4 is the epitome of boredom. I admit. But when I give a look at that fuel gauge never ever going down, yeah, I smile and I have fun. I sincerely tought it was broken…
