The 2027 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid lets Manassas drivers charge for shorter stretches of everyday travel while keeping its gasoline-electric hybrid system ready when traffic, errands, or changing plans add miles to the day. With up to 44 miles of EPA-estimated all-electric range and 220 net-combined horsepower, it brings efficiency and responsive performance together in a five-passenger hatchback.
At Miller Toyota, shoppers can compare four 2027 Prius Plug-In Hybrid grades: SE, XSE, Nightshade, and XSE Premium. Differences in EV range, comfort features, wheel size, multimedia technology, and convenience equipment give commuters several ways to match the Prius Plug-In Hybrid to how they drive, charge, and travel around Manassas and beyond.
The 2027 Prius Plug-In Hybrid has two rows and seating for five. The SE starts with fabric-trimmed seating, while XSE and higher grades add SofTex®-trimmed front seats and an eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat. Available upgrades include heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and driver-seat memory.
Dual-zone automatic climate control is standard for 2027, allowing the driver and front passenger to choose individual temperature settings. That can be especially useful for households sharing a vehicle through Northern Virginia’s hot summers and colder winter commuting months.
Rather than a conventional sedan trunk, the Prius Plug-In Hybrid uses a rear liftback that makes it easier to load everyday cargo. There are 20.3 cubic feet of cargo volume behind the rear seats and an estimated 26.7 cubic feet with the rear seats folded.
A 60/40 split-folding rear seat provides additional flexibility when passenger and cargo needs overlap. That layout can accommodate a week’s groceries, commuter bags, luggage, or longer items without requiring Manassas shoppers to move up to a larger crossover simply for everyday versatility.
The Prius Plug-In Hybrid combines its low, aerodynamic profile with features designed for regular commuting and day-to-day convenience. Rain-sensing windshield wipers are standard, while wheel size and exterior detailing help distinguish the four trims:
An available fixed glass roof brings additional light into the cabin and comes standard on XSE Premium. The XSE Premium also adds conveniences such as a power rear liftback and offers a limited-availability solar charging roof.
Exterior colors for 2027 include:
Inked is new for the 2027 model year, while Nightshade buyers can choose the grade-exclusive Karashi exterior color.
Every 2027 Prius Plug-In Hybrid pairs a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with Toyota’s fifth-generation hybrid system for 220 net-combined horsepower. It offers responsive acceleration, which can be useful when entering fast-moving traffic on major Northern Virginia routes.
Power is delivered through a planetary-type electronically controlled continuously variable transmission. The Prius Plug-In Hybrid is front-wheel drive and is designed around efficient passenger transportation rather than towing, making it a better match for commuting and everyday travel than trailer duty.
The advantage of a plug-in hybrid is that drivers do not have to choose between electric commuting and gasoline-powered flexibility. With sufficient battery charge, the Prius Plug-In Hybrid can complete many shorter trips using electricity. Once more range is needed, its hybrid system allows the trip to continue without stopping to recharge.
Key performance and charging figures include:
For a Manassas household, that flexibility can be particularly valuable when travel patterns are not identical every day. Charging at home can support electric driving for shorter errands and portions of a regular commute, while hybrid operation remains available when traffic, family responsibilities, or a longer regional trip adds unexpected miles.
The Prius Plug-In Hybrid keeps frequently used information and connectivity features within easy reach. A 7-inch digital gauge display is standard, while SE, XSE, and Nightshade models begin with an 8-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen. XSE and Nightshade offer an available 12.3-inch display, which comes standard on XSE Premium.
Notable available and standard technology includes:
A long commute can involve several very different driving situations before you reach your destination. The 2027 Prius Plug-In Hybrid comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0, with features that can assist during everything from following traffic at highway speeds to navigating lane markings and reacting to certain potential hazards.
Standard Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0 features include:
The Prius Plug-In Hybrid also makes Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert standard. Instead of duplicating the functions above, these features extend driver awareness to areas that become important when moving between lanes or reversing. That can be useful for a Manassas driver transitioning from highway traffic to a busy office, shopping center, or school parking lot.
Parking assistance expands as you move through the lineup. Front and Rear Parking Assist with Automatic Braking is available on SE and standard on XSE, Nightshade, and XSE Premium. The XSE Premium can also be equipped with Panoramic View Monitor and Advanced Park for additional assistance during low-speed maneuvering.
Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0 is designed to assist the driver with certain hazards and driving tasks. The standard Star Safety System™ serves a different purpose. Its technologies help manage braking, traction, and stability as the Prius Plug-In Hybrid responds to driver inputs and changing road conditions.
The Star Safety System™ includes:
That distinction matters in Northern Virginia, where one trip can include highway congestion, wet pavement, winter conditions, and repeated stops. Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0 adds assistance around the driver, while the Star Safety System™ works at the vehicle-control level to help the Prius Plug-In Hybrid respond to changing conditions.
