car_truck“The first time I drove this 2026 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid XSE PREMIUM home, my commute went silent, my fuel bill shrank, and my phone felt like it finally belonged in the car.” That’s the kind of reaction this Midnight Black Metallic sedan is built to earn—pairing cutting-edge connectivity with the composure and efficiency only a modern plug-in hybrid can deliver.
Finished in 0218 Midnight Black Metallic with a sleek sedan profile, this NEW 2026 Prius Plug-In Hybrid XSE PREMIUM brings an upscale, almost coupe-like presence, backed by a sophisticated hybrid powertrain. A 2.0L I-4 DOHC engine with port/direct injection works together with a hybrid electric motor system and lithium-ion traction battery, delivering the instant, electric-leaning response plug-in drivers love—while maintaining LEV3-SULEV30 and Tier 3 Bin 30 emissions compliance.
Auto stop-start, a hybrid electric motor starter, and PHEV capability are managed seamlessly through the CVTi-S CVT with selectable drive modes, so you can tailor performance to the moment without fuss.
Inside, the technology suite is anchored by a 12.3-inch primary touchscreen and a fully digital instrumentation display with configurable gauges, including traction battery level and power/regeneration indicators. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay headline the experience. With smart device wireless mirroring, your compatible Android phone integrates deeply into the Toyota interface—commands, maps, playlists, and messages are all accessible through the large touchscreen, steering wheel controls, and Toyota Assistant voice interaction. Android Auto turns the cabin into an extension of your device, so navigation, podcasts, and real-time info flow naturally into every drive.
Apple users are equally well served.
Apple CarPlay integration, combined with JBL speakers, an amplifier, and Clari-Fi digital signal processing, transforms your compatible iPhone into the heart of the infotainment system. Your apps, Apple Maps, curated playlists, and podcasts appear with crisp graphics and clear sound, while Toyota Assistant voice-activated controls help keep your hands on the SofTex leatherette steering wheel. Qi wireless charging and six USB ports mean keeping devices powered is effortless for everyone on board.
The cabin matches this tech with comfort and refinement. SofTex leatherette seating surfaces are paired with heated and ventilated bucket front seats, heated rear seats, and both front and rear center armrests. The driver enjoys 8-way power adjustment with 2-way power lumbar and memory settings, while the front passenger benefits from 6-way adjustability.
Dual sunroofs with first- and second-row coverage invite natural light, while automatic climate control, a cabin air filter, and Toyota Assistant voice-activated climate control fine-tune the atmosphere. Remote Connect (3-year trial) even allows remote-activated interior climate preconditioning, so the car can be warmed or cooled before you step inside.
Everyday usability is enhanced by smart storage and thoughtful details: a full floor console with covered storage, multiple door bins, eight beverage holders, a folding cargo cover, cargo area concealed storage, tie-downs, and a tire mobility kit. The trunk benefits from a power liftgate-style rear cargo door with auto-latching and power release, plus a carpeted load floor and plastic trunk lid trim designed for durability.
Safety and driver assistance systems are extensive. All-speed ABS with four-channel control, regenerative brakes, electronic stability control, multi-link rear suspension, and Active Cornering Assist work together for poised handling.
Eight airbags, rear side impact airbags, and a comprehensive set of seatbelt pretensioners are paired with advanced systems such as Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Blind Spot Monitor, Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection and Intersection Support, Emergency Steering Assist, Road Sign Assist, Safe Exit Alert, and Vehicle Proximity Notification System for pedestrian awareness. Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control with Proactive Driving Assist, Emergency Driving Stop System, Front Cross Traffic Alert, and Level 2 partial automation capability support the driver in traffic and on longer trips.
Parking and low-speed maneuvering are handled with confidence thanks to a Panoramic View Monitor, front, rear, and side sensors, Advanced Park automatic vehicle parking, a rear camera with washer, and a Digital Rearview Mirror with video feed.
Over-the-air update capability, Service Connect (up to 10-year trial), and SafetyConnect® (with vehicle tracker and emergency SOS) help keep this Prius Plug-In Hybrid current and connected over the long term.
With only 3 kilometers on the odometer and impressive efficiency ratings of 4.7 L/100 km city and 5.0 L/100 km highway, this 2026 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid XSE PREMIUM in Midnight Black Metallic delivers a refined balance of plug-in efficiency, elevated comfort, and class-leading in-car smartphone integration through Android Auto and Apple CarPlay—designed for drivers who expect their sedan to be as connected as their lifestyle.
