With incredible fuel economy, excellent safety ratings, and great resale value, the Toyota Prius is one of the most practical cars money can buy.

</ul>

Power, Ride, and Handling

Driving Impressions

The 2025 Toyota Prius is powered by a 194-horsepower hybrid 4-cylinder engine matched with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) and front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. There were about 20 years when nobody associated the Prius with a fun driving experience, but that changed when the newest generation came out in 2023. Once notoriously lackadaisical, the Prius can now get a hustle on. It used to take 9.8 seconds to saunter from a standstill to 60 mph — this generation of Prius can manage the dash in a downright lively 7.2 seconds.
Coming back to a halt is similarly impressive. In the early days of hybrids, their regenerative braking systems felt odd compared with conventional cars and took some getting used to. But no one does this better than Toyota. We’ve found the brakes in the Prius to feel natural, smooth, and confident.
The ride is smooth, as is typical for a hybrid. However, also typical for a hybrid, we noticed some droning sounds in our testing. Occasional noisiness is still a necessary tradeoff in a hybrid with a CVT, maximizing fuel economy. The steering requires virtually no effort, which is an asset when maneuvering. The car also feels quite nimble and composed through the corners, yet the ride quality is completely comfortable.
A small rear window hampers outward vision. There is a remedy for this, though. Blind-spot monitoring is standard, and a digital rearview mirror comes with all but the base trim. It shows a clear image of what’s behind the car, courtesy of a rear-facing camera. Technology like this has enabled <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/">Toyota</a> to push the design envelope unrestricted by small compromises.
<h3>Fuel Economy</h3>
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the 2025 Toyota Prius achieves a remarkable 57 combined mpg (57 city, 56 highway). That’s for the base LE trim with front-wheel drive. For reference, in their most efficient variants, the Hyundai Elantra Hybrid gets 54 mpg and the Honda Civic Hybrid gets 49 mpg.
The higher XLE and Limited versions return 52 combined mpg. If all-wheel drive is equipped, the LE is rated at 54 combined mpg, while the XLE and Limited equivalents run to 49 combined mpg.
It’s tempting to go with the base trim since it’s the most efficient, but according to EPA estimates, the difference in monthly fuel costs for the most efficient Prius versus its least efficient variant is only about $12.

Sleek Exterior

Exterior

It’s always been noticeable to the average bystander that Toyota prioritized efficient aerodynamics over attractive styling with the Prius. However, this newest generation actually looks good without compromising on its slippery aero. The driving character has finally found a favorable balance of verve and efficiency, and the handsome exterior follows suit. It’s a Prius you won’t be embarrassed to drive.

FAQs

Our Favorite Features and Tech

Favorite Features

Wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto 
Phone integration in a convenient cable-free format comes as standard with every new Prius hybrid.
Infotainment systems 
The base LE has an 8-inch touchscreen. An optional 12.3-inch display is available in the XLE and Nightshade and is standard in the Limited. Six USB-C ports are standard, and the Prius can receive over-the-air upgrades.
All-wheel drive 
For people who live in areas where winter tires are probably a good idea, adding this option brings extra reassurance. Yet fuel economy remains thrifty.
Digital key 
Accessing the Prius can be done by phone. This is optional in the XLE and Nightshade and standard in the Limited, and it enables functions like remote locking/unlocking.
Powered tailgate 
Exclusive to the top Limited trim, a powered rear hatch/tailgate/liftback/whatever-you-want-to-call-it adds a touch of luxury.
Advanced Park 
This is a hands-free parking system for parallel and perpendicular spaces, available as an option in the Limited model.

Practical Interior

Interior

Toyota used to lean into the weirdness of the Prius by putting all of the gauges in the middle of the dashboard. With the most recent generation, we’re grateful that the driver information display is now in front of the driver. It’s a little thing, but existing Prius owners upgrading to the newest generation will appreciate it.
The dashboard echoes the car’s front end—clean and modern. We also like the 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen available in the higher trims and the wireless charging location. This spot just ahead of the center armrest is secure and big enough to take the latest crop of giant smartphones with a case.
The low roof means tall adults will argue about who gets to sit up front. The Prius has 36.4 inches of rear headroom and 34.8 inches of rear legroom. If this is a concern, look instead at the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/corolla-hybrid/">Corolla Hybrid</a> sedan or the even more spacious SUV-like <a href="https://www.kbb.com/kia/niro/">Kia Niro</a> (hybrid).
It’s a shame that those places where elbows usually come to rest are woefully under-padded. The usual Toyota aversion to using adequate sound deadening is also evident. Road noise blends with the noticeable thrum of the hybrid system.
The cargo space behind the rear seats is decent: 23.8 cubic feet with LE trim and 20.3 cubic feet with XLE and Limited trims. A couple of golf bags will fit with room to spare.

KBB Editors' Overview

The Toyota Prius name is synonymous with efficiency that’s easy on the environment and the gas budget, but there’s more to the Prius than just excellent fuel economy. When its most recent generation kicked off in 2023, the Toyota Prius retained its virtues as a frugal hybrid hatchback while evolving into a car with peppy acceleration and dashing good looks, two qualities that weren’t exactly strengths of previous Prius generations. It’s even available with all-wheel drive. If shoppers are looking for practical and efficient daily transportation, there’s almost no excuse now to ignore the Toyota Prius.
Reviewed separately, the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/prius-plug-in-hybrid/">Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid</a> is rated to travel up to 45 miles on electricity alone.
We’ve spent hundreds of hours driving and evaluating this generation of <a href="https://www.kbb.com/hybrid/best-hybrid-cars/">hybrid cars</a>, including the Toyota Prius.

Prius buyers seem to gravitate more to the XLE and Limited grades among the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/compare-cars/results?vehicleIds=475865|475861|475786|475792">four trim levels</a>.
The Toyota Prius has always been priced a little higher than the average compact car, and that remains the case for 2025. When looking specifically at hybrids, the Prius is a little pricier than the hybrid versions of the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/corolla-hybrid/">Toyota Corolla</a> and <a href="https://www.kbb.com/hyundai/elantra-hybrid/">Hyundai Elantra</a>, and it’s priced about the same as the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/honda/civic-hybrid/">Honda Civic Hybrid</a>.
Before buying a Prius, check the Kelley Blue Book Fair Purchase Price to know what you should really pay. Toyota Prius resale value is well above average for the segment. Recouping more money when selling a vehicle can mean a bigger down payment and lower monthly payments on the next one.

Under the Hood

Every 2025 Toyota Prius is powered by a hybrid powertrain consisting of a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder gas engine and a CVT with a pair of electric motors. Front-wheel drive is standard, and an optional all-wheel-drive system adds another motor to the rear axle. Output is rated at 194 horsepower for FWD models and 196 hp for AWD variants.
More information on Prius&#8217;s fuel economy is available on the <a href="https://fueleconomy.gov/feg/make.shtml" target="_blank" rel="noopener">EPA’s website</a>.
<h3>3-Year/36,000-Mile Warranty</h3>
Toyota’s basic new-car warranty is for three years or 36,000 miles, whichever happens first, with powertrain coverage going for five years or 60,000 miles. These terms are typical among mainstream car companies. Hybrid-related components have a warranty of eight years or 100,000 miles, while the hybrid battery is covered for 10 years or 150,000 miles. Toyota also includes two years or 25,000 miles of free maintenance.
<h3>Safety Ratings</h3>
The latest Toyota Prius hybrid has stellar safety ratings. It has earned the lauded Top Safety Pick+ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (<a href="https://www.iihs.org/ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IIHS</a>) and the top 5-Star overall rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (<a href="https://www.nhtsa.gov/ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NHTSA</a>). All Prius models come standard with safety features including forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian/cyclist/motorcyclist detection, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, and Lane Tracing Assist.

What's new for 2025

The Nightshade Edition joins the Prius trim lineup this year. It mostly features black accents, such as exterior badging, 19-inch wheels, door handles, and interior upholstery with gray stitching. The exterior colors are either Midnight Black Metallic or white — Wind Chill Pearl in Toyota-speak.

The 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid delivers 35 mpg without compromising an ounce of the Forester’s capability or charm.

<ul>
<li>Aging infotainment system</li>
</ul>

Power, Ride, And Handling

From a driving perspective, the newest Forester is the most refined and competitive ever. As is so often the case nowadays, the hybrid version is even more enjoyable to drive than the gas-only model, and perhaps even a tick quicker. The Forester Hybrid responds just a bit more quickly and smoothly to throttle inputs, brake feel is good, and it’s exceptionally quiet inside, even more so than the newly hushed non-hybrid Forester. The segment’s tidiest turning circle helps make tight parking lots more easily navigable.
The Forester Hybrid also maintains the same exceptional ground clearance and robust all-wheel-drive system that have long distinguished the Forester as one of the most capable and adventurous compact SUVs. We climbed a steep and rutted dirt hill that left some other compact SUVs fruitlessly spinning their wheels, the latest demonstration that those Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive badges mean something.
<h3>2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid MPG</h3>
The 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid is rated to return fuel economy of 35 mpg in combined city and highway driving. That’s better than the gas-only Forester’s 29 mpg, for an EPA-estimated average savings of about $25 per month at the pump. The 2025 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid AWD is a standout at 39 mpg, which works out to a difference of about $12 per month compared to the Forester Hybrid.

Rugged Exterior

We like the Forester’s signature upright, boxy design. A handful of unique traits make it interesting, including the horizontal line connecting the rear windows to the liftgate window, with “Symmetrical AWD” spelled across. Many Kelley Blue Book editors are also partial to the available bronze-finish wheels. The only things that give it away as a hybrid are small badges on the front doors and liftgate.

Our Favorite Features And Tech

Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive 
Subaru’s esteemed all-wheel-drive system is more robust than most, and one of the key reasons Subaru’s vehicles are so prevalent in areas of the country that regularly experience challenging weather and road conditions.
8.7 inches of ground clearance 
The Forester Hybrid’s standard and extra-strength all-wheel-drive system is complemented by the most ground clearance in the segment (8.7 inches).
Intrepid efficiency 
The primary benefits of hybrid ownership are buying and burning less gasoline. Some competitors offer a couple more miles per gallon, but none offer the Forester Hybrid’s reputation for adventure.
Digital instrument cluster 
It’s nice to see Subaru inject more tech into its interiors, and the standard 12.3-inch instrument cluster here is a nice addition.
Emergency Stop Assist 
Part of the Forester Hybrid’s strong suite of active safety features, this will stop the vehicle, turn on the hazard lights, unlock the doors, and call emergency services if the driver becomes unresponsive to warnings while using adaptive cruise control.
Wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto 
This interface is becoming increasingly common on new vehicles, but we still appreciate the feature. If it’s been several years since you purchased or leased a new vehicle, this smartphone connectivity feature will feel like a revelation.

Well-Rounded Interior

A Subaru compact SUV should have an interior that’s roomy, functional, and comfortable. And if it borders on stylish here and there, with some rich designs and materials on offer, all the better. The Forester Hybrid has it all covered.
Highlights include a new digital gauge cluster not yet offered in the non-hybrid Forester, and tall windows that provide excellent outward visibility. Some shoppers will also appreciate that the Forester Hybrid offers a traditional transmission selector as opposed to something of the increasingly common stalk, dial, or button varieties.
The Forester Hybrid gives up a bit of rear headroom and cargo volume compared to the non-hybrid version, but the Forester is among the segment’s roomiest in both regards, so the tradeoff is inconsequential for most. The Forester is also a standout in total legroom, all of which carries over to the hybrid.
If we could change one thing about the Forester, it would be the aging infotainment system. It does the job for the most part, but it’s among our least favorite systems. The interface and responsiveness leave much to be desired.

Yes, the 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid is a good and recommendable vehicle, as reflected in the Forester&#8217;s Kelley Blue Book Expert Rating of 4.4 out of 5.

Yes, the Subaru Forester has built a reputation for being one of the most reliable, longest-lasting compact SUVs on the market.

The adventurous and reliable Subaru Forester has long been a smart choice among compact SUVs, and the new hybrid version is even smarter. Subaru’s compact SUV has been redesigned for 2025, and the lineup has been expanded to include the first-ever Forester Hybrid. It’s more efficient than the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/subaru/forester/">gas-only version</a>, of course, but it’s also just as capable and even a tad more satisfying to drive. Combined with a modest price premium that a typical owner should more than recoup in gas savings, we think the Forester Hybrid is the Forester for most.

The Forester Premium tends to be a popular choice, and is easy to recommend for its impressive collection of standard goodies.
The Forester Hybrid is priced about $1,500 higher than its gas-only counterpart when taking everything into account. With EPA estimates suggesting fuel savings of about $300 per year with the hybrid, it looks like it’ll take five years of driving to recoup that $1,500. But here are a few things to keep in mind: 1) You also recover a big chunk of that price premium when you sell or trade the vehicle, so to break even on the upgrade you might need to save only $750 in gas over a full 5-year buy/drive/sell ownership cycle. 2) If gas is expensive where you live, or you drive even more than 15,000 miles per year, your savings will add up more quickly (the reverse is also true). 3) Saving money and consuming less aren’t the only benefits: With the hybrid you’ll enjoy a slightly better driving experience, even.
When comparing prices with other hybrid compact SUVs, keep in mind every Forester Hybrid features all-wheel drive, and the base model is more generously equipped than some others. The Subaru Forester lineup also enjoys some of the strongest resale values in its class. Remember, recouping more money when selling a vehicle can mean a bigger down payment and lower monthly payments on the next one.
Before buying a Forester Hybrid, check the Kelley Blue Book Fair Purchase Price to know what you should be paying.
