Riding high off a 2024 MotorTrend Car of the Year award, the 2025 Toyota Prius is a hatchback with serious style and incredible performance. Its sophisticated and sleek profile makes it an icon of both efficiency and power. Here are six reasons to drive one home.
1. Substantial Power
The 2025 Toyota Prius offers drivers extra muscle, especially when compared with legacy models. Front-wheel drive models can achieve up to 194 net horsepower, while AWD models can put out up to 196 horses’ worth of muscle. That makes it easy to muscle you way through busy traffic and makes easy work of even the shortest highway onramps.
2. All-Wheel Drive
Whether you’re interested in exploring back roads and off-road campsites or just want the confidence of improved performance in foul weather, the 2025 Toyota Prius’s available All-Wheel Drive is for you. The system makes it easy to keep your confidence under a wide range of driving conditions and enables the Prius to climb from 0-60 time in just 7 seconds flat.
3. Massive Efficiency
It should be no surprise that a vehicle with the word 2025 Toyota Prius on the liftgate delivers incredible efficiency, and the 2025 edition stays true to the brand’s tradition of delivering outstanding fuel economy. Priuses configured with front-wheel drive can get up to a jaw-dropping 57 mpg combined, while those with all-wheel drive top out at a staggering 54 mpg combined.
Either way you configure the Prius, it’s the perfect vehicle for those who want to save money at the pump and slash their carbon footprint at the same time.
4. Excellent Handling
The Prius’s low center of gravity makes it easy to hug the road, and its tight turning circle speaks to its incredibly nimble maneuverability. That makes it easy to maneuver in and out of traffic, especially with standard Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross-Traffic Alerts.
5. Advanced Park
If you’ve ever spent a significant amount of time in any major city, then you know how cramped some parking spots can get. Thankfully, the 2025 Toyota Prius is so smart, it can even park itself. The available Advanced Park feature lets the vehicle take over acceleration, braking, and steering to safely nestle into even the most petite parking spots.
Standard Safe Exit Alert and Vehicle Proximity Notification System make getting in and out of your Prius safer.
6. Day to Day Utility
Being the perfect daily driver requires more than incredible efficiency and excellent driving dynamics. It also takes versatility. With over 23 cubic feet of cargo space under the hatch and a 60/40 split folding back seat, there’s room for plenty of bags and gear to tag along for the ride.
And with the Toyota Safety Sense suite of driver-assist systems coming standard, features like pre-collision braking and dynamic cruise control make each trip safer and easier.
