Everywhere you look, a new hybrid is hitting the market. While it is exciting to see so many automakers striving to create more eco-friendly options, few of these vehicles can compete with the Toyota Prius. Toyota was one of the first international-level automakers to bring a hybrid vehicle to the road. Today’s hybrids take inspiration from what the Prius started. The 2020 Toyota Prius is your tried and true hybrid.
Trim levels
No matter your budget or needs, there is a 2020 Toyota Prius for you. This hybrid vehicle comes in six different trim levels for 2020; L Eco, LE, LE AWD-e, XLE, XLE AWD-e, and Limited. The L Eco is the most affordable option, which is ideal for environmentally conscious drivers who are on a budget. Meanwhile, the LE AWD-e is a trim level of the 2020 Prius that offers electric all-wheel drive. If you opt for this trim, you can enjoy upgrades like power-adjustable and heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and a wireless phone charger. The Limited is the most expensive trim level with the most luxurious and innovative features, which is a good pick for drivers who want the latest and greatest that Toyota has to offer.
Performance
When you think of a hybrid vehicle, you likely think of a vehicle that is fuel-efficient, but maybe a little underwhelming as far as performance is concerned. Not the 2020 Toyota Prius though. This vehicle is powered by a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine and a pair of electric motor generators. The combined horsepower output is 121, which is sent through a continuously variable automatic transmission to the front wheels. When upgrading to an AWD-e trim level, there is an added electric motor for the rear axle as well. The 2020 Prius is a responsive, capable, and fun to drive vehicle, which also happens to be a hybrid.
Technology
Today’s driver is interested in modern, innovative, and convenient technology. The 2020 Toyota Prius is designed with today’s driver in mind. On the dashboard of the Prius is a 7-inch touch screen infotainment system. This infotainment system works alongside an AM/FM radio, a CD player, a USB port, and Bluetooth connectivity. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa are also compatible with the 2020 Prius. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto allow you to sync your smartphone to your vehicle to play your music library, make hands-free phone calls, access your favorite navigation apps, and so much more. With Amazon Alexa, you can also take advantage of voice command controls for a convenient and safe experience behind the wheel.
