The main difference between the Prius and the Prius Prime is that the Prime is a plug-in hybrid, while the Prius is a standard gas-electric hybrid drive system. Firelands Toyota in Sandusky can explain.
2024 Prius Prime
The 2024 Prius Prime is sure to turn some heads. From the stunning design to the impressive drivetrain, the Prius Prime is sure to catch the curiosity of anyone who sees it pass by. With 220 horsepower, nearly 100 more than previous models, the Prius Prime is more than a performative statement; it is a fun car. With 39 miles of all-electric range, it proudly wears its environmental badge.
Toyota Prius
The main difference between the two vehicles is that the Prius maintains much of what the Prius has always been. It takes time; it is a fuel-efficient vehicle that makes a statement. It is a great car for long commutes and daily driving; just don't expect too many heads to turn.
Which should you buy?
If budget is your main concern, the Prius will have smaller numbers on the window sticker. It's a simpler vehicle to build, not needing the plug-in system incorporated into the vehicle.
2024, the Last Year
It should be noted that 2024 is the last year for the Prius Prime. Starting with the 2025 model, the Prius Prime will be the Prius PHEV. While possibly clearing up some confusion on the difference between the two, it doesn't sound as cool.
