All-wheel drive vehicles are perfect for all types of weather conditions and terrain. But there are many types of AWD vehicles on the market today. How do you know which one is the right one for you? Toyota has invested heavily in the last five years to bring even more AWD options to market. Out of the 12 AWD or 4×4 vehicles in the Toyota lineup, we’d like to talk to you about Prius AWD, the perfect Oregon vehicle for hitting the open road.

1. Safety Features

We know the safety of your family is the utmost priority. You want a vehicle that will excel on the roadway but that also comes equipped with enhanced safety features that make you feel like you’re always in control. The Prius AWD was designed to deliver all that and more.

First, it comes equipped with an electronic AWD feature that gives you four-wheel traction whenever you need it. With Oregon’s often unpredictable weather and varied climates, this is a huge plus. It also has advanced safety features, such as a blind-spot monitor to alert you when a vehicle in the next lane enters your blind spot. The rear cross-traffic alert detects vehicles approaching from either side when you are in reverse. You even have an integrated backup camera to help you when you’re backing up into a tight spot.

Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 offers additional safety features so that driving is made simpler. Its pre-collision system is designed to detect a vehicle or pedestrian that may enter your path. The best part is that if you are unable to react to the alert in time, the system is designed to react for you by automatically braking.

It also includes a lane departure alert with steering assist, which is designed to issue an alert when an inadvertent lane departure is detected. These are just a few examples of the great safety features you’ll enjoy from the Prius AWD.

2. Superior Design

You should never sacrifice form for function. With the Prius AWD, you can enjoy the best of both worlds. Its sculpted exterior and interior styling provide the look and feel that only a quality vehicle can provide. The Prius AWD also comes equipped with 17-inch alloy wheels, LED accent lights, and a moonroof to enjoy on warm, sunny days or breezy, starlit nights.

We know that there is nothing Oregonians like more than enjoying the great outdoors, and that means your vehicle is going to need cargo space. The Toyota Prius AWD offers 50.7 square feet of space and cross bars on the roof for your gear. Whether packing for a week at the beach house, loading up for camping in one of the state’s 254 state parks, or gathering your winter gear for a weekend on Mt. Hood, the Prius has all the space you need.

3. Advanced Technology

There’s nothing like modern-day conveniences, especially on long family road trips. The Prius AWD provides everything you need to stay informed and entertained on extended car rides.

For instance, the color head-up display projects speed and turn-by-turn directions so that you can safely keep your eyes on the road while navigating a drive along Oregon’s coast. Your Prius AWD also comes with Qi-compatible wireless charging, which allows you to charge all Qi-compatible devices without having to plug them in.

You can also jam out to your favorite tunes on the road. The Prius’s 11.6-inch display has Apple CarPlay capability. Simply connect your iPhone to receive calls, get directions, and send messages. The JBL speakers will also ensure you have the perfect soundtrack for your journey.

Android users can also stay connected while driving. By pairing your compatible Android with your Prius, you can get access to real-time traffic alerts, make and receive phone calls, or even find a place to eat while never taking your eyes off the road or your hands off the wheel.

We want you to make the most of your time in your Prius AWD. So we’ll even include a 3-month SiriusXM Platinum Plan trial so you can access 165+ channels of music, sports, news, comedy, and more. Time will never fly by as fast as it does when you’re behind the wheel of your new Prius.

4. Supreme Comfort

We know those long car rides can be quite the trek. That’s why the Prius AWD offers supreme comfort to put you at complete ease until you arrive at your destination. The fabric-trimmed front seats include a six-way adjustable driver’s seat and four-way adjustable passenger’s seat to ensure optimal comfort levels.

The interior also features a matte-black center console with armrest and storage compartment, upper door trim with chrome accent, and a soft-touch door armrest area with chrome-accent interior door handles. With the Prius AWD, long road trips have never felt so comfortable.
