Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid Models, Specs & Features
The Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid pairs the striking, aerodynamic design of the standard Prius with plug-in efficiency and a noticeable boost in performance. Every Prius Plug-in Hybrid is powered by Toyota's fifth-generation Toyota Hybrid System, combining a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine with two electric motors and a 13.6 kWh lithium-ion battery for 220 net combined horsepower - enough for a 0-60 mph time of an estimated 6.6 seconds. With a full charge, drivers can expect up to an EPA-estimated 44 miles of all-electric driving range, making daily commutes possible without using a drop of gas, while the hybrid system takes over seamlessly for longer trips. Inside, the Prius Plug-in Hybrid features the same driver-focused cabin and modern technology as the standard Prius, with available premium touches like a solar roof and 12.3-inch touchscreen. Let's take a closer look at what the Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid has to offer.
Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid Model Lineup
The Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid continues to set the standard for plug-in hybrid efficiency, offering strong all-electric range, spirited performance, and bold design across its lineup. Every Prius Plug-in Hybrid is powered exclusively by Toyota's fifth-generation hybrid powertrain paired with a 13.6 kWh battery, delivering an impressive 220 net combined horsepower - the most powerful setup in the Prius family - with front-wheel drive only (no AWD option is available on the Plug-in Hybrid, due to the larger battery pack). The SE grade offers an EPA-estimated 44-mile all-electric range, while XSE, Nightshade Edition, and XSE Premium offer an EPA-estimated 40-mile all-electric range. With a comprehensive suite of standard safety features including Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0, the Prius Plug-in Hybrid remains a smart choice for drivers who want EV-like daily driving with the flexibility and reassurance of a gas engine for longer trips.

The Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid combines plug-in efficiency with modern technology and thoughtful comfort features for every drive. The Toyota Audio Multimedia system includes a standard 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility on SE, XSE, and Nightshade Edition, while XSE Premium steps up to a 12.3-inch touchscreen. XSE and above add 19-inch alloy wheels (black-finished on Nightshade Edition), Qi-compatible wireless charging with a charge indicator light, and SofTex®-trimmed front seats with an 8-way power-adjustable driver's seat. XSE Premium tops the lineup with a fixed glass roof, an 8-speaker JBL® Premium Audio system with amplifier, and an available 185-watt solar roof that helps charge the battery while parked and power auxiliary functions on the go - a feature unique to the Prius lineup.
Every Prius Plug-in Hybrid gives drivers three ways to manage power: EV Mode relies solely on the battery for quiet, emission-free driving; Auto EV/HV Mode primarily uses the battery but calls on the gas engine for demanding conditions like steep hills; and Hybrid Mode blends both automatically for maximum efficiency on longer trips. Technology features like available Advanced Park and Traffic Jam Assist (requires an active Drive Connect trial or subscription) help make everyday driving easier.
Available Solar Roof
Exclusive to XSE Premium, the available 185W solar roof harnesses energy from the sun to help charge the battery while parked, powering auxiliary functions on the go - a feature you won't find anywhere else in the Prius lineup.
Standard Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0
Every Prius Plug-in Hybrid comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0, a comprehensive suite of advanced safety and driver-assistance features including a Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (which also detects bicyclists and motorcyclists), Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, and Road Sign Assist. Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert is also standard across the lineup.
Available Premium JBL® Audio System
Standard on XSE Premium, the 8-speaker JBL® Premium Audio system with dedicated amplifier delivers rich, detailed sound throughout the cabin.
