Recent Model Years
2026 Toyota Prius Power and Performance
The 2026 Prius shatters the old myth that hybrids have to be slow. It’s powered by a fifth-generation Toyota Hybrid System that pairs a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with electric motors to produce a spirited 194 horsepower in front-wheel drive (FWD) models. For those who demand superior traction, the available Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system adds a third electric motor to the rear axle, increasing output to 196 horsepower and providing the grip you need for any weather condition. This makes traversing Ten Rod Road (Rte 102) during a winter storm or commuting to East Greenwich on wet roads a far more confident experience.
Of course, efficiency remains at the heart of the Prius. FWD models achieve a manufacturer-estimated rating of up to 57 MPG city, 56 MPG highway, and 57 MPG combined. Even with the added capability of AWD, the Prius maintains an impressive rating of up to 53 MPG city, 54 MPG highway, and 54 MPG combined, ensuring you save at the pump no matter which model you choose.

Step inside the 2026 Prius and you’ll find a futuristic, driver-focused cockpit designed for comfort and connectivity. The tiered dashboard places a crisp 7-inch digital instrument cluster in the driver’s line of sight, while the center stack is home to a standard 8-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen. For an even more immersive experience, a stunning 12.3-inch display is standard on the Limited and available on the XLE and Nightshade trims.
Every 2026 Prius comes standard with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility, Bluetooth®, and six USB-C ports to keep everyone’s devices charged. The available 8-speaker JBL® Premium Audio system with Clari-Fi® technology delivers rich, clear sound for your favorite music or podcasts. Beyond the tech, the Prius is practical. Its hatchback design provides a generous 23.8 cubic feet of cargo capacity, offering plenty of room for packing up sports gear for a family day at Wilson Park.
2026 Toyota Prius Safety
Toyota’s commitment to safety is on full display in the 2026 Prius. Every single trim level comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0 (TSS 3.0), an advanced suite of active safety and driver-assistance features. This comprehensive package includes:
- Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection: Designed to help detect a vehicle, pedestrian, bicyclist, or motorcyclist and provide a warning, and in some cases, automatic emergency braking.
- Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control: An adaptive cruise control system that can maintain a preset following distance from the vehicle ahead, working down to a complete stop and resuming.
- Lane Tracing Assist: Works with cruise control to provide gentle steering inputs to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane.
- Road Sign Assist: Uses a forward-facing camera to recognize certain road signs, like speed limit signs, and displays them on the instrument cluster.
In addition, all Prius models come standard with a Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, providing extra peace of mind when changing lanes or backing out of parking spots, which is especially helpful when navigating the busy crowds during the annual Wickford Art Festival.
