The Toyota Prius 2025 has an initial price of $29,485 for the LE version, which is a $400 increase compared to the previous year’s model. Prices rise depending on the version, with the top-of-the-line Limited starting at $36,500.

The main novelty this year is the addition of the Nightshade model, which brings exclusive design elements like black emblems and door handles, as well as a unique color called Karashi.

The 2025 Prius continues to be equipped with a 194-horsepower hybrid engine, consisting of a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine and two electric motors, paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission.

Front-wheel drive is standard, but the model offers an all-wheel-drive option, which adds an electric motor to the rear axle and provides an extra 2 horsepower.

In terms of performance, the 2025 Prius brings a significant improvement with the increased power, making it more attractive to those looking for fuel efficiency with a more agile performance.

The XLE model, which includes larger wheels and enhanced technology, now starts at $32,930.
