ICYMI 2022 LA Auto Show: Hits and misses — via drivingdotca NewVehicles AutoShow
In the past, mentioning the Prius made many nod off such was the prosaic look and dismal performance. That all stops here and now with the 2023 model. It is offered as a regular hybrid and as a plug-in hybrid — the Prime. Not only does the new look have curb-appeal, it finally has the wherewithal to back up this newfound swagger. No, it wil not blow your socks off, but it is enough to be more than entertaining without trashing the fuel economy.
This is important, as the electric-only range rises by 50 per cent. As a result, the overall economy will stay the same as the outgoing model in spite of the considerable performance hike — it takes a respectable 6.7 seconds to romp to 100 km/h. It promises to upset the plug-in cart in the same way as the RAV4 Prime disrupted the hybrid crossover market.Article contentToyota’s Prius was definitely the hit of the show.
