FWD versions are no longer available.
The new pricing structure equates to a base price that is $7,000 higher than the previous one.
We’ve just returned from the new 2023 Toyota Prius first drive event and for the most part, we are impressed with what the giant Japanese automaker has done. We are however somewhat disappointed in a few things.
As noted, the new Prius forgoes a FWD version in Canada, unlike the US, which means that the first step into the popular hybrid’s lineup is far steeper than the previous. As well, base fuel efficiency is not greater either. We’ll let you read the full review here and see what we think about the car.
