A solid chassis means Prius Prime was built to be confident. With increased torsional rigidity from laser-screw welding, high-tensile-strength steel and uniquely shaped frame structures, Prius Prime offers a ride that’s comfortable yet ready to take on every corner.

Intelligent Efficiency

Its lightweight materials, proven hybrid technology and optimized Plug-in Hybrid Vehicle (PHV) system all work together to give Prius Prime an EPA-estimated 133 MPGe. ⁸⁹ This impressive efficiency lets you challenge what’s possible.

Versatile Driving Modes

Prius Prime offers multiple driving modes so that the driver stays in control: EV (Electric Vehicle) Mode, EV Auto Mode and HV (Hybrid Vehicle) Mode.

Using both a camera and radar, PCS w/PD can provide an audio/visual alert to warn you of a possible collision under certain circumstances. If you don’t react, the system is designed to automatically brake.

Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control

Intended for highway use, Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) ¹⁵⁵ lets you drive at a preset speed. The system is designed to function between 0-110 mph and uses vehicle-to-vehicle distance control, helping maintain a preset distance from the vehicle ahead of you.

Lane Departure Alert With Steering Assist

By detecting visible white/yellow lane markings or the road’s edge at speeds above 32 mph, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (LDA w/SA) ¹⁶⁰ is designed to issue an audio/visual alert if an inadvertent lane departure is detected. If the driver does not take corrective action, the Steering Assist function is designed to provide gentle corrective steering.

Automatic High Beams

The Automatic High Beams (AHB) ¹⁶¹ safety system is designed to help you see more clearly at night at speeds above 25 mph. The AHB system can detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and taillights of preceding vehicles, then automatically toggles between high and low beams accordingly.
