The 2026 Toyota Prius trim levels start with the feature-rich and value-packed Prius LE. Highlights include a 7-inch multi-information LCD, single-zone climate control with pollen filtration, an Integrated Backup Camera, and 17-inch wheels. Its lower curb weight helps the 2026 Prius LE earn peak fuel economy ratings within the lineup, returning an EPA-estimated 57/56 MPG (City/Highway).1 Like other 2026 Prius trims that follow, the LE edition gets Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, a full suite of advanced driver-assistance technologies for on-road peace of mind.
Searching for an affordable hybrid car, but want the increased all-weather confidence from AWD? Then, consider the 2026 Toyota Prius LE AWD. This trim builds on the base edition's superb standard features list by including the carmaker's Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive. Like the LE base model, the 2026 Prius LE AWD has the same array of amenities, including an 8-inch touchscreen and wireless Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay®.
For next-level style, comfort, and tech in your new Toyota hybrid car, turn to the mid-grade 2026 Prius XLE trim. This impressive automobile sports bold 19-inch alloy wheels, premium SofTex-trimmed front seating surfaces that can be heated, a power-adjustable driver seat, and wireless mobile device charging. The 2026 Toyota Prius XLE also boasts helpful rain-sensing windshield wipers, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and Front and Rear Parking Assist.
Enjoy the commanding control of the Toyota electronic AWD system with a few more upgrades by selecting the XLE AWD edition. Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive sends power to this edition's sporty 19-inch alloys, enabling the Prius XLE AWD to deliver both an enhanced exterior and confident performance in various conditions.
The Toyota Prius Nightshade Edition is a variant that builds on the XLE trim with blacked-out styling elements, including badging, bumper trim, a roof-mounted shark fin antenna, and door handles, and sits on 19-inch alloy wheels. Inside, it has carbon fiber detailing on the dashboard, black doorsills, and black SofTex seats with gray stitching.
The Nightshade Edition AWD has Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive for equal power to its front and rear blacked-out 19-inch wheels. Otherwise, the features and styling for the 2026 Toyota Prius Nightshade Edition AWD remain the same as the front-wheel-drive configuration. If you're looking to hit the streets in style and take advantage of enhanced traction, don't miss this automobile.
Get into the 2026 Prius Limited if you dream of driving a new hybrid car with a fully loaded interior, complete with the latest Toyota technologies.
