2022 Toyota Prius Review

Make Strides With These Performance Specs

A 1.8L hybrid engine helps you make those strides in the Prius. It supplies you with 121 horsepower and up to 120 lb-ft of torque. But the real treat is how fuel efficient it is.

As you can see, the Prius equips your car with front-wheel drive (FWD), or opt for the available Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive (AWD-e). It all depends on what you want to accomplish in your car. Whether you’re headed for the hills or content to stay in town, this car adjusts and enables you to go much further than imaginable with the fuel and capability you have.

Airy and Snug Interior

The smart-flow climate control system circulates the air within your Prius to breed an atmosphere of contentment. In the optional 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, heat can be added, as well as vegan-friendly SofTex®-furnished seats. An available moonroof provides light throughout your cabin.

While you’ll receive 93.1 cubic feet of passenger volume, here are the other cabin dimensions:

If you’re traveling or undertaking your usual grocery run, the starting out cargo space encompasses 27.4 cubic feet. Expand the space to a total of 50.7 cubic feet when you put down the rear seats.

Trendsetting Safety

Toyota assisted in starting the trend of bundling safety systems together through their Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.0. Here are some standard systems to expect:

• Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection
• Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
• Road Sign Assist

Staying in your lane won’t be a concern with Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist and Lane Tracing Assist on your side.

To safely back out of a space or out of your driveway, the standard backup camera can help. Other available systems give you extra guidance with parking and going in reverse. They include:

• Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
• Intelligent Clearance Sonar with Intelligent Parking Assist

You’ll feel confident and secure to get on with your busy day.

Prius Dashboard Infotainment

Your Prius dashboard can be a glowing ribbon of infotainment with the screens and features it offers, including:

• 4.2-inch Multi-Information Display
• 7-inch touchscreen
• Available 11.6-inch touchscreen

If you want a bite-sized look at your car’s operations, add the Head-Up Display. This breaks down info like fuel and charging remaining, activated system, and speed. It appears on your windshield to maintain your focus on the road.

The available larger touchscreen features split-screen capability for multitasking—you can use navigation tools while selecting your road trip playlist, for example.

Systems controlled through this screen include:

• Amazon Alexa
• Available 10-speaker Premium JBL® Audio with Integrated Navigation

Add to your tunes by using your phone on board through Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™. Keep your phone charged through the wireless smartphone charging option.
