2025 Toyota Prius Hatchback Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The 2025 Toyota Prius is a small hatchback available in four trim levels: LE, XLE, Nightshade and Limited. Each has a hybrid powertrain combining a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and an electric motor to produce 194 horsepower. Front-wheel drive is standard. All-wheel drive (AWD) is optional, adding a second electric motor at the rear wheels and increasing output to 196 horsepower. A plug-in hybrid version of the Prius, called the Prius Plug-in Hybrid, is reviewed separately on Edmunds. Keep reading for our breakdown of the significant features you get with each Prius trim level.
Which Prius trim does Edmunds recommend?
We think the midlevel XLE trim level provides the best blend of value and equipment. This version's larger wheels reduce fuel economy slightly, but in exchange you'll enjoy improved comfort and convenience as well as access to appealing options.
