2022 Toyota Prius Prime Battery Size

Battery size affects electric range, charging behavior, and how the vehicle integrates hybrid operation—so it’s important to keep the pack in good condition. The 2022 Toyota Prius Prime’s traction battery is approximately 8.8 kWh, designed to deliver around 25 miles of electric range under normal conditions. Regular checks at Nalley Toyota Stonecrest verify that the battery’s usable capacity remains within spec and that individual modules operate evenly.
