The Plus model is the standard Prius Prime, and it comes with everything you would expect from a new Toyota vehicle in addition to the rechargeable battery and hybrid engine. The most exciting versions of the Prius Prime are the Premium and Advanced models. While the starting prices for these two models are slightly higher, they provide incredible upgrades over the base model. But what’s the different between these two upgraded models? Find out which one is right for you below.

You will also enjoy Qi-compatible wireless smartphone charging and a smart charging cable lock so you never have to worry about anything happening to your charging cable. There are more features available in the Premium model not covered here. All these features and more justify the price increase from an MSRP of $27,300 to an MSRP of $29,000. However, the real top-of-the-line plug-in hybrid comes in the Advanced model.

The 2018 Toyota Prius Prime Advanced is Toyota’s most impressive and fully-loaded version of the Prius Prime.
