Overview

When talking about the history of hybrids, the Toyota Prius is among the first names we hear; it’s the first Hybrid vehicle. It started with a fuel-efficiency rating of 28.0 km/l and is now at 40.8 km/L. Today, we’re enjoying some innovative features of the fourth-generation Toyota Prius. The 2022 Toyota Prius Prime comes after the Prius Plug-in that was sold between 2012 and 2015.

The Prius Prime joined the Toyota Prius franchise in 2017 and was among the first plug-in hybrids. Today you can choose between gas-electric or all-electric, different from the conventional Prius.

Performance

Many Toyota passenger vehicles are built under the TNGA-K platform architecture. The double-wishbone form multi-link rear suspension and the structural strength that is behind the Prius Prime's smooth ride and responsiveness.

Prime Body Frame

Aluminum parts, such as brake callipers and the hood, significantly influence the car's overall weight. High and hot-stamped tensile steel is used everywhere to create the intricate forms of the body; they’re strong and lightweight too.

Toyota used new fastening techniques like laser screw welding and innovative adhesives that help with structural strength.

The Prius Prime adapts the signature liftback style and other innovative additions to give a different look, such as the bumpers and lightings systems, plus the front and rear fascias. Practical aerodynamics is enhanced through the "dual wave" rear windows.
