For 2023 the Toyota Prius has turned over a new leaf. Not only is it more efficient than ever before, calling it better looking is an understatement. Toyota also gives us an improved all-wheel-drive system with a more powerful rear motor and more ground clearance for snow country. Unfortunately, there are now a great number of options beside the Prius for high fuel economy so the question is where does that put the ultimate hybrid? Right: Alex, Would it be fair to say everything added in performance and 'style' to the new Prius has been deducted from its practicality and accessibility? On the subject of headroom, I was STUNNED to learn this Prius has even less headroom than a Corolla. I will wager the Niro beats it in rear headroom by 4-5 inches. The choice between Camry Hybrid and Prius will be even more difficult when the AWD is added to the Camry's repertoire.

In spite of the less headroom and cargo space and the ugly steering wheel and gauge cluster, I have to admit I m pretty impressed with the Prius. I expected toyota to screw this up badly like the bz4x but that didn t happen and that s a good thing
But I d still go Camry hybrid because it s more spacious and more stylish and more luxurious and better to drive. And it gets insane mpg

I think they have successfully moved into the egg style car. I have a 2018 and I like the sporty look of the front half of the car. I don't like the huge tires. I put me Michelin tires on mine and I love that I don't squeal when I hit the gas at a full stop and the gripping of the road feels safer.

Well, the lack of headroom eliminates the Prius from further consideration by me. I fit in my 2008 Prius. If a six foot person has only two inches of headroom left, a six foot four man with much of that height in the torso is SOL.

I'm trying to trade my '22 Corolla Hybrid for a '23 Corolla Hybrid, then this comes out. I just have a feeling these will be ever hard to get, and even harder to find a dealer that doesn't mark them up.

Haha Alex I loved the thumbnail caption The First ever Pretty Prius you nailed it of course in all the previous generations I never gave the ugly duck a second glance this Prius is a Beautiful Swan!

Toyota has no holistic approach lol. come on man. This is the same company. along with others like GM. that has fought tooth and nail to destroy fuel economy improvements from the EPA.

The only serious drawback to this Prius is its pricing. It not only surpasses the Corolla Cross hybrid, but matches the Rav4 hybrid, and it s simply an inferior vehicle to the latter.

Many auto journalists are releasing their 2023 Prius video at the same time. Yet, Alex's is still the most detailed and informative. Please never change and keep up the good work!

I ride with the last post, but will quickly add that REdline is equally good. I believe that s why Tommy of TFL taps into both of them to complete.

sucks I just bought my 2022 Prius a couple months ago. Well, in a few years this may be more refined and better to get a little older gen

All the style made it lose practicality. which was what it was known for. Probably the taxi drivers will now just go for hybrid Corolla

Toyota has some of the strangest and outdated cabins I have seen. It's like a human never got an input on location of buttons and design
