It?s been a while since we last checked in on our 2021 Toyota Prius Prime, and we?re happy to say our experience keeps getting better.

In a time where gasoline prices just keep rising, our Prime has hit 65.5 miles per gallon of regular over 4,000 miles just since our last update. That brought our total distance up to nearly 13,000 miles and our overall efficiency average to an impressive 58.3 miles per gallon.

This generation Prius Prime is nearing the end of its life cycle, but considering it was the first vehicle to ride on Toyota?s TNGA global platform, its surprisingly agile driving dynamics have held up well. On the other hand, the interior is showing its age a little bit. Specifically, the infotainment screen, which lacks the looks and functionality of others even within Toyota?s lineup. Luckily the fuel-saving hybrid technology is arguably the best in the business.
We haven?t faced any major quirks or groans; it very much remains the same practical Prius plug-in we took on 10 months ago. And where less frugal vehicles have us leery of summer road trips, the Toyota Prius Prime is brightening up our time behind the wheel, while also being easy on our wallets.
