Toyota says the name change “is intended to help consumers more easily identify the powertrain choices” among Prius and Rav4 models. The 2025 versions of the Prius Plug-in will also have an updated “PHEV” (plug-in hybrid electric vehicle) badge on the rear. The Rav4, meanwhile, will no longer have a blue halo in the Toyota logo on both the front and rear.
The specs for the new 2025 Prius models seem unchanged otherwise — the plug-in version still has a 13.6 kWh battery with a max range of 44 miles of electric-only driving on the SE trim.
The Rav4 has an 18.5kWh battery with 42 miles of EV range, plus it supports 6.6kW charging speeds, which takes about two hours to charge up on a Level 2 charger. (The Prius takes about four hours.)
