"2023 Toyota Prius Prime: A Game-Changing Hybrid with Impressive Range and Performance"
InsideEVs conducted a 70 mph range test on the 2023 Toyota Prius Prime, a plug-in hybrid with a sleek, aggressive design and a larger battery than its predecessor. The Prius Prime SE has an EPA range rating of 44 miles per charge, while the XSE and XSE Premium trims are rated at 39 miles per charge. During the test, the vehicle covered 34 miles before the combustion engine turned on, likely due to the rainy and chilly conditions. The vehicle's average consumption rate was 3.1 miles per kilowatt hour, indicating that only about 11 kilowatt-hours of the 13.6 kilowatt-hour battery pack are accessible in EV mode.
