2026 Toyota
Prius
The 2026 model year marks a significant milestone for the Prius, as it marks 25 years on U.S. roads. Over the past quarter-century, the groundbreaking Prius has helped transform hybrid technology from cutting-edge to mainstream. The once-unthinkable goal of 50+ miles per gallon is an everyday occurrence for Prius drivers, who appreciate not just the money saved on fuel but also the opportunity to reduce their toll on the environment.
The 2026 edition continues the sportier design, hatchback capability, enhanced performance, and advanced safety and technology features that the fifth-gen redesign kicked off in 2023. Toyota expands on this versatility by offering the Prius in front- or all-wheel-drive versions with four trim levels with varied standard features. Cargo capacity is more than adequate, with 23.8 cubic feet for the LE and 20.3 cubic feet for the other trims.
