The 2026 Toyota plug-in hybrids include the Prius Plug-In Hybrid and the RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid.
The Toyota RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid’s EPA-estimated all-electric driving range of up to 54 miles and the Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid’s up to 44 miles show these Toyota PHEV models can go far on a full charge and much further when the gas engines take over.

Electric Range
The 2026 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid (previously known as the Prius Prime) is a highly efficient, stylish compact hatchback with a starting MSRP of $33,775. It delivers an EPA-estimated all-electric driving range of up to 44 miles on a full charge. It then relies on an extremely efficient gas engine once the battery is depleted.
Depending on trim, the Prius Plug-In Hybrid’s electric-only range is 39 to 44 miles.
Powertrain & Performance
A 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine combined with electric motors maxes out at 220 horsepower. The Prius Plug-In Hybrid can accelerate from 0-60 mph in roughly 6.5 to 6.7 seconds, again dependent on trim.
All trims are front-wheel drive (FWD) via an electronic continuously variable transmission (eCVT).
The Prius Plug-In Hybrid features a 13.6 kWh lithium-ion battery. It charges in about 4 hours using a 240V Level 2 charger, or 11 hours via a standard 120V household outlet. It does not support DC fast charging.

Range
The new 2026 Toyota RAV4 PHEV has a manufacturer-estimated range of 49 to 54 miles, depending on trim. That’s significantly more than the 42 miles available in the outgoing generation. The range was increased primarily thanks to a higher battery capacity and a more efficient front electric motor axle, which, for the very first time, is equipped with silicon carbide semiconductors.
Powertrain & Performance
A 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine combined with electric motors maxes out at 220 horsepower. The RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 6.5 to 6.7 seconds, depending on the version.
All versions are front-wheel drive (FWD) via an electronic continuously variable transmission (eCVT). All-wheel drive is only available on the standard, non-plug-in Prius.
The RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid has a 13.6 kWh lithium-ion battery.
Fuel Economy & Efficiency
SE Trim: 127 MPGe (combined electric + gas) and 52 MPG combined on gasoline alone.
XSE, XSE Premium, & Nightshade: 114 MPGe and 48 MPG combined on gasoline alone.
Total range is up to 550 miles.

Key Trim Levels & Pricing
Toyota offers four RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid trims for the 2026 model year. Pricing includes destination fees:
SE $42,950 MSRP: Features 17-inch wheels, cloth seats, an 8-inch touchscreen, a heated steering wheel, and wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.
XSE $48,650 MSRP: Upgrades to 19-inch alloy wheels, SofTex-trimmed synthetic leather seats, an 8-way power driver’s seat, and wireless smartphone charging.
Woodland $46,750 MSRP: A new trim package built off the XSE, featuring unique blacked-out wheels, badges, door handles, and mirror caps. It highlights an exclusive “Karashi” dandelion-gold paint option.
GR Sport $49,950 MSRP: Top-tier variant adding a 12.3-inch touchscreen, an 8-speaker JBL premium audio system, ventilated front seats, a power tailgate, and an available solar-charging roof.
Charging
The RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid charges in about 4 hours with a 240V Level 2 charger or 11 hours at a standard 120V household outlet.
On the SE and GR SPORT trims, there is an SAE J1772 charging inlet for AC charging scenarios only. Charging power is up to 11 kW.
The next two trims, XSE and Woodland, have a CCS1 charging inlet for both AC and DC charging. The car can recharge from 10% to 80% state of charge (SOC) in approximately 30 minutes at a DC charger. Charging current is limited to 125 amps (50 kW, assuming a 400-volt-class battery system).
Its DC fast-charging power is up to five times higher than AC charging, but due to the small battery size, a 30-minute session adds only 35 miles of all-electric range (in a 10-80% SOC session).

Toyota has this to say about the RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid:
The 2025 Toyota RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid is primed to perform for those looking for a Toyota plug-in hybrid SUV. A 302-system net combined horsepower powertrain gives you the power you want, when you want. During downtime and under ideal conditions, a professionally installed Level 2 onboard charger helps the RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid get to full charge in approximately 2 and a half hours (240V at 32A).
