The Prius v's spacious interior comes fitted with modern amenities to make your journey easier than ever. A handy center console includes an armrest, storage compartment, and removable utility tray, and you can even plug your electronics into a cargo area 12V auxiliary power outlet in the cargo area. The Prius v is also equipped with modern features the likes of a rear dome lamp and cargo area lamp, dual sunvisors with illuminated vanity mirrors, and a digital instrumentation that shows speedometer, odometer, and even a Hybrid battery state of charge indicator.
Like all Toyota vehicles, the Prius v offers industry-leading safety by way of heavy-duty side-impact door beams, side, knee, and side curtain airbags, and three-point seatbelts.
