The 2019 Toyota Prius boasts a redesigned and amped up exterior, reshuffled trim options, and the highly-anticipated all-wheel drive system (AWD-e). The availability of AWD-e makes the 2019 Prius the first hybrid vehicle to also feature all-wheel drive capability. The new Prius should also perform better in cooler temps, as the 2019 is outfitted with a brand new nickel-metal hydride battery.
