When will the new Prius v become available?

2017 Toyota Prius v Canadian Release Date

Shortly after announcing the exciting new 2017 Toyota Prius Prime, Toyota revealed that the family-oriented Prius v would be following in the footsteps of its other family members. In 2016, the Prius was completely overhauled, and while no massive changes like that are slated for the Prius v, it will offer better efficiency and a whole host of versatility – which might just be what that v stands for. With 2017 model year vehicles already arriving around the country, we cannot wait for the 2017 Toyota Prius v Canadian release date.

2017 Toyota Prius v Specs & Features

The 2017 Prius v is just a small hatchback vehicle, much like the regular Prius, but it’s designed as more of a wagon than a regular hatchback. This design means that it has plenty of space for both people or your stuff. In fact, it offers 40% more cargo capacity than the regular 2016 Toyota Prius, which is pretty spacious in its own right. While the Prius v isn’t going to win any literal races, its space and efficiency make it a great option for growing families.

Speaking of power and efficiency, the hybrid powertrain delivers 136 horsepower while achieving 5.6 l/100km combined fuel efficiency. That is quite impressive! Add to that great options like regenerative braking and driver-selectable powertrain options – of which there are four: Normal, Power, ECO and EV –  and you’ve got an awesome vehicle.
