About the 2014 Toyota Prius c
1st generation Prius c (2012-2019 in the U.S.), third model year and last pre-refresh year before the 2015 styling update.
Toyota positions the Prius c as the city-sized member of the Prius family: a smaller, easier-to-park hatchback that gives up some space and power to deliver excellent urban fuel economy. Its appeal is simple and durable for used-car shoppers: hybrid efficiency without needing a plug, hatchback usefulness, and a cabin that is roomier than the footprint suggests. Compared with the larger Prius liftback, the Prius c is about maneuverability, low running costs, and practical daily use in tighter spaces.
The 2014 Prius c is a small, city-focused hybrid hatchback offered in four trims, all using a 1.5-liter hybrid system and CVT. The Two adds everyday conveniences such as cruise control and a split-folding rear seat, while the Three brings keyless access, push-button start, and touchscreen navigation. The Four tops the range with heated synthetic-leather seats, fog lights, and alloy wheels.
