Key Features of the 2026 Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid

All-Electric Driving Range

With up to an EPA-estimated 44-mile all-electric driving range rating on a full charge, Prius Plug-in Hybrid lets many Pueblo-area drivers run errands and commute in EV Mode most days. That means quiet starts, instant torque response, and no tailpipe emissions while the battery has charge. When you need to go farther, the hybrid system seamlessly engages to extend your journey—no planning, no detours, just go. Charging is simple, too: plug in at home with Level 1 or Level 2 equipment, or take advantage of a public charging landscape that counts currently more than 55,000 charging stations across the United States. The result is an ownership rhythm that gives you the best of both worlds—electric-first convenience backed by Toyota’s proven hybrid expertise.

2.0L Hybrid Engine and 0-60 MPH in 6.6 Seconds

Under its sleek sheet metal, Prius Plug-in Hybrid’s 2.0L hybrid powertrain delivers a total system output of 220 horsepower and a 0-60 mph sprint in a quick 6.6 seconds. That’s remarkable acceleration for a plug-in hybrid with such impressive electric range. Around town, the powertrain’s smooth transitions between EV and hybrid operation create a refined feel, while on the highway, abundant passing power and steady composure keep you confident. It’s the kind of performance that makes daily driving engaging—eager off the line when lights turn green, and calm, quiet efficiency when you settle into the cruise. Multiple drive modes let you tailor response to the moment, whether you want maximum efficiency or a bit more punch.

Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0

Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0 comes standard, bringing a suite of active safety and driver-assist technologies designed to elevate confidence mile after mile. The system builds on Toyota’s continuous advancements in detection and assistance to support everyday driving scenarios. Beyond the core TSS features, Prius Plug-in Hybrid is available with Traffic Jam Assist (TJA), which can help with steering, braking, and acceleration on controlled access freeways in low-speed congestion—TJA requires an active Drive Connect trial or subscription and is 4G network dependent. Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA) is also available, providing extra awareness when changing lanes or backing out of tight Pueblo parking spots. When combined with available Advanced Park, which can assist with parallel or perpendicular parking, this Prius Plug-in Hybrid makes complex maneuvers feel easy.

Toyota Audio Multimedia and 12.3-in. Touchscreen

The available 12.3-in. Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen anchors a cabin built for modern life. It’s crisp, responsive, and thoughtfully laid out, so you can quickly access navigation, audio, and vehicle settings. On select grades, an 8.0-in. display is standard, while XSE Premium offers the larger 12.3-in. screen. Audiophiles can opt for the 8-speaker JBL® Premium Audio including amplifier, which brings depth and clarity to every playlist and podcast. Qi-compatible wireless charging with a charge indicator light simplifies daily routines by keeping your smartphone ready without cords. Across the lineup, connected services and a top-mount Multi-Information Display (MID) with a 7-in. LCD provide vital info at a glance, reducing distraction and reinforcing the Prius Plug-in Hybrid’s forward-thinking cockpit design.

Nightshade Edition Design

If you want your plug-in hybrid to make a bold statement, Nightshade Edition brings the drama. Outside, 19-in. black alloy wheels, all-around black badging, and a sleek front end accentuate a futuristic profile that turns heads from downtown Pueblo to the open road. Step inside and you’re greeted by an all-black interior with gray stitching that feels tailored and upscale without being fussy. Choose a color like Guardian Gray to underscore its monochrome sophistication or explore other available hues to match your style. Across the trim family, highlights like SofTex®-trimmed front seats with 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, available fixed glass roof on XSE Premium, and smart storage solutions make the cabin both comfortable and practical for daily life.
