Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid

The Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid is a plug-in hybrid liftback built by Toyota and sold as the Prius PHV, the Prius PHEV and, from 2016 to 2024 in North America, South Korea and New Zealand, as the Prius Prime. The first generation was produced from 2012 to 2016, a second generation followed in 2016, and production of a third generation began in 2023. The car grew out of a 2009 concept and a global demonstration programme of 600 pre-production cars leased to fleet and government customers in eight countries. The first generation paired the Hybrid Synergy Drive of the third-generation Prius with a larger 4.4 kWh lithium-ion battery, and it was one of the best-selling plug-in electric cars of its time.
