Prius Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle

Compare your commute

In EV mode the Prius Plug-in benefits from the powerful Lithium-ion battery. With only a 90-minute charge Prius Plug-in can deliver a range of up to 26kms of driving from the battery alone, at speeds up to 100km/hr. Perfect for most commutes, or stuck in a traffic jam, it’s also the way forward for short trips to the shops. And of course it means zero driving emissions the whole time!

Range anxiety simply isn’t a factor for the Prius PHEV. Unlike pure electric vehicles, when the EV range is depleted, Prius Plug-in reverts to its proven petrol-hybrid Synergy Drive® system, allowing you to travel as far as a conventional petrol vehicle. This technology produces zero emissions in electric driving mode (EV) and ultra-low emissions in hybrid drive mode allowing for kilometres of highly efficient driving. You’ll never look back.

Day-time Running Lights (DRL) are a key preventative safety feature as they ensure you’re highly visible to other road users during the daytime. They also happen to look great.
