No longer the schoolyard's easy target
Once considered the ugly duckling of the automotive world, the Toyota Prius has been steadily rebuilding its street cred since its glow-up a few years back. Its sinuous bodywork and contemporary interior have reinvigorated the model's image, but its core mission hasn't changed one bit.
Stellar fuel economy remains the Prius's primary objective, and it delivers with a 57-mpg combined EPA rating for the most efficient front-wheel-drive version. All-wheel drive is also available, at a slight efficiency penalty. Where past generations lacked both pep and personality, this Prius makes 194 horsepower from its standard hybrid powertrain and handles with genuine confidence — it's almost a treat to drive.
Step inside and you'll find a modern, well-equipped cabin, though the rakish roofline does eat into rear-seat headroom for taller passengers. Toyota also builds a plug-in hybrid version, the Prius Prime, which costs about $5,000 more than the standard hybrid but delivers 40 to 45 miles of all-electric range plus a bit more power. For 2027, changes are minor: a dual-zone automatic climate control function and a new black exterior color called Inked.
What Stands Out
- Streamlined, genuinely attractive looks
- Handles well and makes good power
- Highly efficient across every trim
- Well-equipped cabin, even on base LE
Worth Knowing
- Sleek roofline cuts into rear-seat headroom
- Digital gauges can be hard to see over the wheel
- Engine moans and groans when pushed hard
