The 2024 Toyota Prius builds on the much more dramatic 2023 release, which broke the internet last year. For the newest generation, we see a few minor interior tweaks, although that is it. Most often, car brands don’t drastically change a nameplate year after year, but rather once every few: So 2023 was the big bang.
However, that doesn’t mean we can’t (or won’t) highlight the 2024 Prius interior, plus share some photos detailing its infotainment, tech, and comfort. After all, this hybrid model continues to keep Toyota’s lights on, so it’s only fair to give it an appropriate amount of attention. We even named it our top small-sized sedan for 2024, so it’s worth the hype.
To touch on some of the changes this year in Prius, we have the same three trims – LE, XLE, and Limited. However, a new lock and unlocking tone, six exterior paint colors, and the ability to connect Apple Music and Amazon Music to your car’s touchscreen now are offered. Therefore, most of the changes to the Prius lineup happen in the detailing of the hybrid, so you won’t have any updates to the engine, battery, horsepower, etc. Without further ado, let’s dissect the 2024 Prius interior!
10 Electric Alternatives To The Toyota Prius Prime
While the Prius Prime may seem like a reliable option, a plethora of all-electric alternatives beckon, competing for your attention.
In order to give you the most up-to-date and accurate information possible, the data used to compile this article was sourced from Toyota and other authoritative sources, including Motor Trend, Edmunds, and Toyota dealers.
There Aren’t Extreme Differences Between The 2023 And 2024 Prius
- There are not any significant changes made to the Prius lineup in 2024.
- You have new exterior colors, tech options, and
For this year’s Toyota Prius, we’ll see a few changes aesthetically to the hybrid, although none are especially exciting. First, this model saw a complete overhaul last model year, so Toyota has kept things pretty simple this time around. Much of your upgrades come in the form of new colors and tech, so Prius continues to evolve.
The interior design of this four-door model is very clean and modern, with a sporty edge that is new to the nameplate. Much like the Prius Prime, the standard model also offers you a competitive aesthetic, as well as a newly integrated infotainment system. 2024, although not a *huge* difference for Prius, is still a worthy release if you’re in the market for a new hybrid.
The new changes for this year’s Prius are a new lock/unlock tone, six exterior paint colors, and Apple Music and Amazon Music connection to your vehicle’s touchscreen.
After The Revamp, Toyota Plans To Play It Cool
Adding to the above point, the Prius family has seen major updates recently, so for 2024, we’d call it a carryover year. That is when an auto manufacturer releases a similar or even identical model with minor changes just to have something *new* each year.
If vehicle makers released only when they did something major, we wouldn’t have many models to choose from at any given time. Therefore, the refreshed 2023 interior (and exterior) is what you’ll get to continue enjoying inside your car.

As it takes its first steps, the Prius 24h Le Mans Centennial GR Edition holds the potential to reshape our outlook on hybrid cars.
Lower Rooflines And A Longer Body Affect The Interior Cabin On Prius
- Prius models 2023 and forward have lower roof lines.
- Toyota made changes to the body of the Prius to give it a sleeker, sportier frame.
One of the first things you may notice upon stepping inside a 2024 Prius or Prius Prime is the lower roof. Many people find this sportier design rather sexy for Prius, although taller drivers and passengers may not feel as excited. Luckily, you have adjustable seats in the front, which should help ease the lack of spacious headroom Prius was once known for.
A major part of the 2023 rebrand was to enhance the aesthetics and performance of the lineup, which translated to a lower, sleeker build. Again, your seats and floor space inside the 2024 Prius are nice, so it’s not a bad option for taller people by any means.
Interior Details In The 2024 Prius Worth Enjoying
Getting into the specifics of the 2024 Prius, this model comes standard with cloth upholstery and manually adjustable front seats (LE and XLE trims).
As you move into your third and highest Limited 2024 Prius trim, this vehicle offers synthetic leather upholstery, an eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a heated steering wheel, while these are available to XLE models as well for an additional cost. The front bucket seats inside the newest-gen Prius make it feel stylish and comfortable, although back-row seats may not be as plush.

Cargo Space (Although Slightly Less Than Pre-2023 Prius) Packs A Punch
- LE cargo space is greater: 23.8 cubic feet.
- XLE and Limited trims have less space: 20.3 cubic feet.
Moving onto cargo space in the 2024 Prius, you see more space in the base LE trim. Inside, you have 23.8 cubic feet of storage area, while XLE and Limited trims see 20.3 cubic feet. Toyota reminds drivers they can still fit a couple of golf bags with room to spare when toting items between points A and B, so don’t expect to not have storage capacity inside your hybrid. There’s just a bit less than 2022 and prior releases because of the new body. Hey, sometimes you have to shed some cubic feet to compete.
Passenger Space In A 2024 Prius Is Pretty Decent
Adding to the cargo space discussion, your 2024 Prius models boast pretty decent passenger space, especially considering they’re made to be compact. For the 2024 release, here are the dimensions to take note of:

Again, you’re not going to be able to do cartwheels back there, but the rear seats in the Prius are not the worst in class by any means. You have more space to wiggle around towards the front of the vehicle, although this is pretty standard.

Infotainment And Tech Upgrades Inside The 2024 Prius Make A Difference
- The changes to the 2024 Toyota Prius include a connection between your touchscreen and Amazon Music plus Apple Music.
- New lock and unlock tonnes modernize your Prius and its ambiance.
As we shared earlier, most upgrades from 2023 to 2024 inside the Prius come into play with your infotainment system. Notably, new Prius models boast a refreshed lock and unlock sound, giving your vehicle a space-ship-like ambiance. You also have the ability to connect Amazon Music and Apple Music to your car’s touchscreen display, which is 8.0 inches standard or 12.3 inches in the Limited trim level.
Like last year, you have the choice between a standard six-speaker audio system or a JBL eight-speaker audio interface. Both are great for sound quality and distribution, although JBL is worth it for those planning on cranking up the music inside their Prius.
Besides that, you’ll still have Bluetooth ability, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, USB connection, and a complimentary three-month subscription to satellite radio. Toyota went hard with the redesign of Prius and Prius Prime a year ago, so anything in that model you’ll continue to enjoy through 2025.
