The 2026 Prius lineup includes four primary trims: LE, XLE, Nightshade Edition and Limited. Each uses Toyota’s hybrid powertrain while emphasizing a different combination of efficiency, comfort, styling and technology.
The Prius LE is the efficiency-focused starting point of the lineup and delivers the highest available EPA-estimated fuel economy.
The XLE adds comfort and convenience features while retaining the efficiency and hatchback versatility of the Prius.
The Nightshade Edition is aimed at Prius shoppers who want distinctive dark exterior styling without giving up hybrid efficiency.
The Limited sits at the premium end of the Prius lineup, adding additional comfort, multimedia and convenience technology.
Choose Prius LE if maximizing fuel economy and value are your biggest priorities.
Choose Prius XLE if you want additional comfort and convenience without moving to the highest trim.
Choose Prius Nightshade if you like the Prius but want distinctive black exterior styling.
Choose Prius Limited if you want the most premium technology and comfort available in the standard Prius lineup.
Fuel economy varies based on trim and drivetrain. LE provides the highest available efficiency, while models with larger wheels and AWD trade some fuel economy for additional equipment or traction.
