Toyota's Glow-Up: Why the 2025 Prius Nightshade Actually Looks Good Now

During this episode, we take the wheel for a detailed review of the 2025 Toyota Prius Nightshade Hybrid. After 25 years in the U.S., Prius has shed its appliance stigma for sharp lines, a moody Nightshade package, and a hybrid system that feels smooth and confident. We cover trims, efficiency, AWD options, cabin ergonomics, and everyday tradeoffs—no spare tire, limited cubbies, and an awkward hatch design. With pricing that undercuts today’s bloated averages, this Prius makes a strong case for hybrid practicality without sacrificing style.
