2022 Toyota Prius Review
You’re thinking of ditching your dinosaur-fueled internal combustion engine for something a little kinder to the environment. Why not go with the model that became synonymous with the hybrid vehicle? The Toyota Prius. Since it drove onto the scene in 2001, this vehicle has had several changes, and we’re excited to show you some features of the 2022 model year.
The team at Phillips Toyota has put together this 2022 Toyota Prius review so all our friends near Leesburg, The Villages, Apopka, Mount Dora, and Clermont, Florida, can get excited and behind the wheel of this hybrid vehicle.
Eco-Friendly Engine Performance
The first thing you’ll want to know about when considering getting a hybrid vehicle is how powerful it is and is it as fuel efficient as everyone says. Well, the 2022 Toyota Prius has a 1.8L 4-cylinder gas engine paired to a permanent magnet AC synchronous electric motor.
This pairing of gas and electric motors produces 121 horsepower and 105 lb-ft of torque, but it is efficiency where the Prius shines. The 2022 Toyota Prius has an EPA-estimated 58 city and 53 highway MPG, which can cover your morning commute and then some.1
Top of the Line Technology
Since you’re bringing your engine into the future, it’s time to bring your cabin with you. The 2022 Toyota Prius has an available color Head-Up Display. This feature will project important information, such as your speed and even turn-by-turn navigation, onto the windshield in front of you.
Do you spend a lot of time on the road, just you and your favorite podcast hosts? Then you’ll be glad to know that the Prius is compatible with standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration. There’s even an available wireless charging pad, so you can set your phone to the side and not think about whether you’ll run out of battery or not.
State of the Art Safety
Safety is everyone’s number one priority, as it should be, and we’re excited to tell you about Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.0 (TSS 2.0), now standard on all Prius models. This suite of driver-assistive systems includes:
- Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection
- Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist
- Automatic High Beams
- Road Sign Assist
So, you’ve got your phone set up for that long road trip, but you know what else might help? Not even having to think about your foot on the gas pedal. Now standard, the 2022 Toyota Prius features the Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control system.
This system lets you set a speed and follow distance and will do all the acceleration and deceleration for you, helping combat driver fatigue.
