2023 Toyota Prius Prime
Like its gasoline-electric hybrid counterpart, the 2023 Toyota Prius Prime plug-in hybrid sheds its prior ugly-duckling design and becomes a proverbial swan. Lower, wider, and longer than before, the latest Prius Prime almost looks, dare we say, sporty. Complementing its new sheetmetal is a much improved powertrain that pumps out a total of 220 horsepower—nearly 100 horses more than its predecessor. Even better, Toyota claims the latest plug-in Prius ought to better the prior Prime’s EPA-rated 25 miles of driving range by more than a dozen miles. In the context of a Prius, this new Prime is both a beauty and a beast.
