Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid

The Prius Plug-in Hybrid is the Prius Prime renamed for 2025. It shares the same low-slung design as the regular Prius, but it adds a larger lithium-ion battery that can be plugged in for an electric-only range between 39 and 44 miles, depending on trim, impressive for a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. Unlike a pure EV, it also has a 2.0-liter gas engine. Once the battery is depleted, the Prius Plug-in Hybrid acts like a regular hybrid. It managed 43 mpg with our tested XSE trim. It takes about 10 hours to charge the battery on a standard 120-volt outlet, or about 4 hours on a 240-volt EV charger.
