The Best Eco-Friendly Drive – The 2021 Toyota Prius

EV Mode: Ideal for short distances the vehicle will run on the electric motor exclusively.
ECO Mode: Automatically manages the fuel inputs and optimizes the air conditioning system for maximum fuel efficiency.
Power Mode: A reactive gas pedal and no organizational changes to the function of your vehicle. Essentially the mode to get the most power.

The 2021 Toyota Prius Prime Plug-in Electric Hybrid
Ever since its debut, the Prius Prime has delivered, providing a total 1035-kilometer driving distance on a single charge with its electric power and 1 full tank of gas combo. Now, the Prius Prime continues with its acclaimed feature set and performance capabilities that have made it such a hit! And all you need is five and a half hours to charge it using a standard 120v household outlet, or two hours and ten minutes at a 240v charging station. The beauty of this vehicle is that you do not rely on electricity alone. So, there is no reason to be concerned if charging isn’t a close by opportunity on your journey. When the vehicle runs out of the plug-in charge (EV mode), you still have the benefit of running on Toyota’s hybrid technology. Though, the fuel efficiency rating its at its best when in EV mode, using an extraordinary 1.8Le/100km it still remains impressive when running in hybrid mode only with a rating of 4.3/4.4 city/hwy L/100km.

Power & Capability
Building upon the benchmarking performance that the original Prius made for fuel consumption, the Prius Prime takes it even further with new technologies. The 1.8-litre 4-cylinder Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive engine also incorporates New Global Architecture (TGNA) to positively impact the powertrain and drive performance.
Its Fuel Efficiency rating remains best-in-class with 4.3L/100km in the city and 4.4L/100km in the highway. With the added EV Mode on the Prime, it creates an Electric drive of 1.8Le/100km—all while still running on regular unleaded fuel. The Prime will drive in electric vehicle mode only for the first 40 km of your trip. The cost in electricity is comparable to a small air conditioning unit, measured at about $200 annually. The Prius Prime takes 7.2 – 8.8 kwh to charge a fully drained battery. If you were to charge it every night for 365 days during off-peak hours (6.5 cents kwh) this would equal 57 cents a day and $208.05 annually. For the average driver who may drive 20,000 km per year, the estimated electricity and fuel costs combined equal approximately $618 per year!
The Prius Prime also has one of the shortest charging times compared to other electric vehicles, with only about 5 hours to complete a full charge. Still not fast enough? When using a public charging station (240V), Prius Prime can be fully charged in approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes. The only time you’ll ever have to account for is the traffic in-between getting there.
