Download the FREE Upside App at upside.app.link/redline to get $5 or more cash back on your first purchase of $10 or more Yup, you heard right. We live in a world where a Toyota Prius is quicker than sport compact cars like a Civic Si or VW GLI and it gets 50+ MPG. It’s also cheaper than both to start. Bravo, Toyota! 👏🏼👏🏼

[@rightlanehog3151]

It is an impressive car but is it an impressive Prius when practicality (cargo capacity and headroom) has been thrown out the window?

[@TheBreakfastLover]

If you compare them to the FWD Prius though, the Civic Si and GLI are a little quicker. But still great to see the Prius finally get a little hair on the chest.

Dude I love your reviews, you talk about these cars like you've done your homework, and mention all the small things.

[@pazooter]

Got one! An AWD XLE Black! and I'm telling you, I feel as smug as I'd feel for someone in 1953 loving a new Corvette! This car! It's all drive-by-wire, powerful, sporty car drivability, high-tech, comfortable, and a design that wows!

[@pazooter]

Anyway, great review! I learned things I hadn't known before.

[@rogerb7147]

I'm excited to see Toyota's new design language here. This is a preview of what we will see on their future product, at least the sedans (excuse them for the Crown). It's time to move away from big-mouths on the front. I would prefer a high-roof car or wagon body but this car is tempting. As an aside, Sofyan Bey generally has excellent reviews: careful presentations, hits the details (sometimes with just a passing remark} and full pricing. Sofyan has a good presentation script, which is efficient. This is the third review I've watched of this vehicle and it's the best.

[@battosaijenkins946]

@Redline Reviews, DAMMIT. As a devoted manual transmission stick shift lover, this new Prius is looking sooo freakin nice and checkmarks a LOT of positive things. I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm really wanting the Prime version now. Hopefully the reviews come soon!! 👍👍

[@Flynntastics]

Fabulous review! I've always wanted a Prius - and now may be the time...love the new looks and tech. I have a question though... is it difficult getting used to the digital review mirror? Or is it a pretty easy to get used to?

[@Roddy451]

The non-flat rear floor adds rigidity to the floorboard (less noise transmission too) and a passage for the exhaust.

[@mattman953]

I love the look of this

[@garyzerr8134]

I bought a Prius Limited and absolutely love it. Upgraded my 2010 Prius. It's got almost safety feature imaginable (most standard) and worth the premium price for the limited I think. It's really a looker too. Cutting edge is the best color I think! Great review as always BTW

You are an excellent and a professional automotive journalist. And focus on details such as ingress/egress that others don't. Many other reviewers these days on YT, sound like bad new car salesmen, trying to be funny. But they really don't know how to seriously review vehicles. I used to belong to the Motor Press Guild (MPG).

Big fan of this new Prius! Might even buy one myself.

[@icculus]

It looks really good in that rear 3/4 view in blue.

[@DATDesign]

Love the looks (coming from a Tacoma owner lol). Two questions: does it have a heated wheel, and is that awful front, squared off license plate mount removable? I surely hope it's not molded into the front bumper, especially on a car so concerned with aero.

Not after the stealer ships do their price gouging markups.

Honda needs to answer with the I insight. The last generation was far more stylish and faster than the equivalent Prius.

Awesome review! I'm very excited to see how the public will respond to the redesign and the bump in power.

[@rightlanehog3151]

Sofyan, This new Prius is great for those 'built low to the ground' but dropping the headroom by several inches forces taller drivers into a CUV that burns far more gas.

[@theredline]

The Corolla Hybrid and Camry Hybrid also get pretty similar MPG and have more headroom inside. Toyota has lots of hybrid options if you need that head space.

[@rightlanehog3151]

@@theredline This has less headroom than the Corolla, I thought that was impossible. 😉

[@PhillyFan20]

This thing looks really good. The tech and power increase is a nice upgrade. Although, I'm surprised that Toyota didn't put turn signals on the side mirrors. That seems like a weird omission.

[@matrix-fh9tn]

They are saving that for a 2nd year model. And 3rd year will have legit fog lights. Then the 4th year will bring back the rear windshield wiper. Then full electric. Lol.

The EV mode has been around for a while. I use it in my 4th-gen Prius for driving around parking lots. You can slowly(!) accelerate in EV mode to somewhere around 20 mpg without EV mode getting disabled. My 4th-gen Prius also has an actual color head-up display, which I think was an option. I would miss that along with my car's opening sunroof. But in just about every other way, this new Prius is much better.

We love our two Rav 4 Primes. We drive in EV 85% of the time and go 6 months on one tank of gasoline. On vacation we get 42 mpg on the freeway if we keep it under 80 mph. The PHEV Prius would be a good choice if the price isn’t over MSRP but that is wishful thinking. Plan on $5k over MSRP.
