I drove the new Toyota Prius

Hey everyone,

I test drove the new Toyota Prius PHEV, apparently only available as a plugin hybrid now. The one I drove was in Excel trim (top spec for Prius) in Scarlet Flare paint, which is listed just over £40k.

I like the little Easter Eggs that Toyota have scattered throughout the car (inside and out). It drove pretty smoothly and the infotainment screen is pretty much the same as what you will get in the current NX etc. I did appreciate the physical buttons for things like cooled seats etc.

I also love the new look, what do you all think about it?

PS it was very wet here in Scotland the day I drove it, so apologies the car is soaking and the skies are grey!

This is the rear end of the new Prius PHEV, Excel trim so it gets these cool wheels.
