Toyota Prius Prime 2021

The 2021 Prius Prime is the fourth-generation PHEV variant of the Prius, using a 1.8L four-cylinder Atkinson-cycle engine combined with a plug-in hybrid system rated at 121 hp combined. The EV-only range is 40 km on the EPA cycle — roughly 35 km in Canadian winter conditions with cabin heating active. Once the battery depletes, the Prius Prime transitions to conventional hybrid operation at approximately 4.5 L/100 km combined. Charging requires 5.5 hours on a standard 120V Level 1 outlet; a 240V Level 2 connection reduces this to under 2 hours. The split-wing rear window design limits rear visibility and cargo volume, a persistent criticism that Toyota addressed in the fifth-generation redesign. Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 is standard. Canadian trims are Base, Upgrade, and Technology; the Technology trim adds the 11.6-inch portrait touchscreen. The Prius Prime qualifies for federal and provincial EV incentives in Canada as a PHEV.
