As many things as the Prius did well, the five-door hatchback didn't have the outright utility some buyers craved. Enter the Prius v, a wagon with a squared-off cargo area. Toyota says that “v” stands for versatility, but we’d argue it could just as easily stand for volume.
What's New for 2014
The Prius v was introduced in 2013 and gets minor updates—such as daytime running lights—for 2014. A panoramic moonroof is offered as an option on the Prius v Three.
Choosing Your Toyota Prius v
Though taller than an ordinary Prius, the Prius v is powered by the same 1.8-liter four-cylinder hybrid engine. Look for fuel economy of 44 mpg city and 40 mpg highway.
The Three adds appealing technology like Bluetooth, navigation with voice control, and climate controls on the steering wheel. A panoramic roof is available as an option.
The top-spec Prius v includes adjustable and heated front seats with lumbar support, SofTex fabric upholstery, 17-inch alloy wheels, fog lamps, LED headlamps and a smart-key. Available only on the Five is the optional Advanced Technology package, with a moonroof, hard-disk navigation and dynamic cruise control.
CarsDirect Tip
We'd skip the Two and head to the Three or Five—whichever is most comfortable for your budget.
