Auto123 puts the 2024 Toyota Prius to the test. This is the third chapter of our four-part long-term review of the all-electric pocket SUV.
See: 2024 Toyota Prius Long-Term Review, Part 1: A Pioneer Not Ready for RetirementAfter poking into the Prius' history and its new eye-catching design , today we take a look at what's going on under the hood and on the road.
More powerful than those of the regular Prius, they give the Prime a total output of 220 hp . But no AWD. An all-wheel drive system would require a third electric motor on the rear axle, as in the case of the regular Prius, but the Prime's internal architecture doesn't have the necessary space. That said, regardless of the version, it takes four hours to recharge a Prime on 240 V or 11 hours on a standard 120V household socket.
As we've seen, the silhouette of the new Prius is striking. And low. Which means it’s best not to hurry when getting in; my poor noggin can attest to that. Meanwhile, through the window, visibility is good. At three-quarters rear, on the other hand, it's nil because of the rear side pillars. Similarly, depending on your seat position, when you turn your head to check for side traffic, you may come face-to-face with the B-pillar. That's why the arsenal of alerts and cameras deployed by the Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 system is so welcome, nay, necessary.
