Interior Features
Step inside the 2026 Prius and you’ll find an interior that blends minimalist design with modern comfort. The two-row hatchback seats five, with supportive front seats and competitive rear passenger space. Cloth upholstery is standard, while higher trims upgrade to SofTex® leatherette, with available heated and ventilated front seats for extra year-round comfort.
The rear seats feature convenient LATCH anchors for easy child-seat mounting, and the spacious hatch opening makes family shopping or beach trips a breeze. Cargo space remains a benefit, holding bags, groceries, or sporting gear with no trouble at all. A standard automatic climate control system and available dual-zone climate and rear vents ensure everyone rides in comfort – even during South Carolina's sweltering summer months. With such amenities as ambient interior lighting and optional power-adjustable front seats, the Prius is now more luxurious than ever.
Exterior Features
The 2026 Prius retains the snappy, coupe-like shape of the previous redesign, abandoning its dowdy history in favor of a sleek, athletic form. Slender LED headlights, low ride height, and aggressive character lines make it one of the most handsome hybrids on the road.
Practicality wasn't overlooked on a daily basis. The huge rear door makes loading easy, and an available power liftgate adds extra convenience. Standard 17-inch alloy wheels are a clean look, but upper trims get 19-inch wheels for a more aggressive look. Roof options include available rails to add storage, perfect for Saturday excursions to the mountains or the beach. Exterior colors include:
- Wind Chill Pearl
- Cutting Edge Silver
- Reservoir Blue
- Supersonic Red
- Midnight Black Metallic
- Guardian Gray
Power & Performance
Under the hood, the 2026 Prius carries Toyota's proven hybrid powertrain. A 2.0-liter four-cylinder is paired with electric motors to deliver a combined 194 horsepower in front-wheel-drive models. Going to all-wheel drive adds a motor to the rear axle to the equation, boosting output to 196 horsepower and providing better traction on slippery coastal roads.
A CVT offers smooth power, and although efficiency is prized in the Prius, it no longer feels sluggish on the road. Acceleration is swift enough to provide comfortable merging at highway speeds, and the ride is sharper than expected with its low ground clearance. Drivers can expect great fuel economy, making the Prius a smart choice for both long highway commutes and short runs to town.
