The Prius Prime plug-in hybrid, like the ordinary model, dazzles with its incredible glow-up from the inside and exterior. Between the previous and present iterations, it almost seems like there ought to have been a few more evolutionary design steps. The fact that driving a Toyota hybrid is so much more enjoyable could be even more persuasive. The most potent and swiftest Prius Prime the carmaker has ever made, the Prime is the tip of the spear.

This groan is sent through an improved CVT automatic transmission. Driving this one is also enjoyable. Crisp steering and remarkable poise from the Prius Prime contribute to a seamless, natural handling experience. Although the braking system’s smooth transitions from regenerative to friction braking and its natural, constant pedal feel pleased us more than its average braking performance. 2027 Toyota Prius Prime Redesign
