Predecessor | Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid |
The Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid, also known as Prius PHV and Prius Prime, is a mid-size plug-in hybrid manufactured by Toyota.
The first generation Prius plug-in total all-electric range in blended mode is 11 mi (18 km) as rated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The EPA fuel economy rating is 95 miles per gallon gasoline equivalent (MPG-e) (2.5 L/100 km; 114 mpg-imp) in charge-depleting (all-electric or EV mode) and a combined city/highway rating of 50 mpg‑US (4.7 L/100 km; 60 mpg‑imp) in hybrid mode, the same as the conventional Prius liftback. The Prius Prime has an EPA-rated fuel economy of 133 mpg‑e (25.9 kW·h/100 mi) in all-electric mode, a 40% enhancement over the first generation model, and the highest mpg-e rating in EV mode of any EPA-rated vehicle with an internal combustion engine. The EPA-rated all-electric range is 25 mi (40 km), over twice the range of the first generation model.
The first generation Prius PHV was based on a third generation Toyota Prius (model ZVW30) outfitted with 4.4 kWh lithium-ion batteries co-developed with Panasonic, which enable all-electric operation at higher speeds and longer distances than the conventional Prius hybrid. Production of the first generation Prius Plug-in ended in June 2015.
The second generation plug-in, called the Prius Prime in the United States and Prius PHV in Japan and Europe, is based on the fourth generation Toyota Prius (model XW50) outfitted with a drive system powered by lithium-ion battery twice the capacity of first generation (8.8 kWh). Retail deliveries of the Prime began in the United States in November 2016, and the release in the Japanese markets is scheduled to begin by late 2016.
