Performance

The 2026 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid is an easy choice to enjoy the benefits of electric driving without worrying where your next charge will come from. The fifth-generation plug-in hybrid system pairs a 2.0L engine with an electric motor to give you 220 horsepower and a 0-100km/hr speed in just 6.8 seconds.
The Prius Plug-In Hybrid can also travel up to 962 km on a full tank of gas and a fully charged battery, so you'll spend less time stopping for fuel and more time enjoying the drive. Regenerative braking also helps recharge the battery as you slow down, making the most of every kilometre. Learn more about Toyota plug-in hybrids.

The biggest advantage of the Prius Plug-In Hybrid is its ability to handle everyday driving using electricity alone. With up to 72 km of all-electric range (over 50% more than the previous generation), many daily commutes, grocery runs, and school drop-offs around the city can be completed without using any gas.
Toyota also placed the lithium-ion battery underneath the rear seats, so you don't lose valuable cargo space. That means you still have plenty of room for groceries, luggage, or gear while enjoying the added efficiency of plug-in hybrid tech.

Whether you're navigating downtown Edmonton, cruising along the Anthony Henday, or heading west toward the mountains, the 2026 Prius Plug-In Hybrid lets you tailor the drive to your surroundings with 4 different drive modes:
- Normal Mode: Perfect for everyday driving, offering a comfortable balance of performance and efficiency.
- Eco Mode: Helps you get the most out of every charge and every litre of fuel by optimizing power delivery.
- Sport Mode: Sharpens acceleration and makes the car feel more responsive when merging or passing on the highway
- Custom Mode: Personalize the vehicle's steering, powertrain, and climate settings to match your driving preferences.
Design Features

The Prius Plug-In may look a lot different than what most people think of when they think Prius. The newer, sporty look brings a lower and wider stance with a sleek and modern style.
Built on Toyota's TNGA-C platform, the latest Prius sits lower, wider, and slightly longer than the previous generation. The result is a lower centre of gravity that helps improve handling while giving the car a more planted, confident feel on the road. Available 19-inch alloy wheels complete the athletic look while adding even more confidence when you're cruising through Edmonton or heading out on the highway.

Whether you're commuting through downtown Edmonton or taking a road trip across Alberta, the 2026 Prius Plug-In Hybrid comes equipped with Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0 to help give you extra peace of mind behind the wheel.
Standard features include a Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian and Daytime Bicycle Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Lane Tracing Assist, Automatic High Beams, Full-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control with Curve Speed Management, and Blind Spot Monitor with Safe Exit Assist. Together, these systems are designed to help make everyday driving feel safer and less stressful.

Some of the Prius Plug-In Hybrid's most appreciated features are the ones you'll use every day. Traffic Jam Assist can help reduce driver fatigue during slow-moving traffic, while available Advanced Park on XSE and Premium models can automatically steer, brake, accelerate, and shift to help guide the vehicle into a parking space to take a lot of the stress out of parking.
Interior Features

Whether it's a freezing January morning in Edmonton or a warm summer road trip through the Rockies, the 2026 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid is designed to keep you comfortable year-round. Heated front and rear seats help everyone stay warm during Alberta winters, and available ventilated front seats help you cool down on hot summer days.
Depending on the trim, you'll also find premium SofTex® seating, a synthetic leather-wrapped heated steering wheel, and an available fixed glass roof with a retractable sunshade that brings more natural light into the cabin without sacrificing comfort.

Inside the Prius Plug-In Hybrid, the technology is simple, intuitive, and easy to use. Depending on the trim, you can get either an 8-inch or available 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, making it easy to access your navigation, music, messages, and favourite apps without needing to plug in your phone.
Available wireless charging helps keep compatible devices powered up, while Toyota's Connected Services including Remote Connect, Safety Connect, Service Connect, and available Drive Connect, add extra convenience.

You don’t need to choose between efficiency and practicality with the Prius Plug-In Hybrid. With 575 litres (20.3 cu. ft.) of cargo space, there's plenty of room for groceries, luggage, sports equipment, or everything you need for a weekend trip.
Accessories like a cargo area mat and cargo net help keep your belongings protected and organized, making the Prius Plug-In Hybrid just as useful for everyday errands as it is for longer adventures around Alberta.
