Toyota Prius 2020

FROM
$25,850

The 2020 Toyota Prius range of configurations is currently priced from $25,850.

Our most recent review of the 2020 Toyota Prius resulted in a score of 7.1 out of 10 for that particular example.

Carsguide Family reviewer Nedahl Stelio had this to say at the time: The Toyota Prius has been around for a long time and led the way with a hybrid engine back when we should have all started caring about that. The design does feel quite dated now, both inside and out and with other competitors offering completely electric cars now for near the same price, and even hybrid Corolla and RAV4 from Toyota both having excellent technology, it can’t be long that Prius will get another update. Still, it’s reputation is solid and for a second runaround car for a family, it works well enough.

Toyota Prius 2020 FAQs

I'm in the market to buy a new car and not too sure whether I should go with an electric car or a hybrid?

This is a really topical question right now, and the fear is that you could buy something today that would be technically obsolete next week. However, if you look at the way alternative powertrains (hybrids and EVs) have progressed over the years (and it’s been decades since the Toyota Prius introduced us to the hybrid principle) that hasn’t happened yet. Nor is it likely to.

Obviously, the best way to future-proof your purchase is to buy the latest tech. So that would be an EV. But even then, future EVs will be better than today’s models. That’s just progress for you.

The other factor is how you use your car. If you only drive in an urban setting and can recharge at home, then an EV makes plenty of sense. But if you live or drive in regional areas, then a conventionally powered car remains a valid choice. If your driving is mainly urban running with the odd long-distance trip thrown in, then a hybrid is the one that makes most sense.

As to whether you wait a few months, if you plan to buy a popular make and model, you’ll be waiting anyway. The global shortage of silicon chips as well as manufacturing bottle-necks due to Covid and other factors means that car-makers are struggling to keep up with demand.
