How much does the 2019 Toyota Prius cost?

Prices are up 2.63% year-over-year — a sign of continued demand for this model year.

There are 338 listings available, which gives you a decent amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

Is the 2019 Toyota Prius a good car?

Yes — the 2019 Toyota Prius earns a 5/5 user rating and a 7.3/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Cost effectiveness at 10/10.

Owners consistently praise its impressive fuel economy, quiet interior, and comfort for daily driving. The review summary also points to reliability and a range of helpful features, while the overview frames it as practical, efficient, and affordable. The main trade-offs are its polarizing styling and outdated technology, and the expert notes also call out the design as a drawback.

For shoppers who want a value-focused hybrid that covers the basics well, that mix makes sense. The market also shows 29.0% good or great deals, which suggests there are still worthwhile opportunities if you shop carefully.

Is the 2019 Toyota Prius reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The review summary highlights reliability, and the expert cost-effectiveness commentary says the Prius has historically proven reliable and trouble-free. It also describes the car as a smart ownership choice thanks to its strong fuel economy, roomy interior, hatchback utility, and standard driver-assistance systems. The cost-effectiveness content also notes that buying one makes logical and financial sense.

For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is less about the Prius formula itself and more about finding a well-kept example with a clean history and consistent maintenance.

What should I look for when buying a used 2019 Toyota Prius?

At 62.1% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle-history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has been in any collision. Focus on body condition, alignment, and signs of repair quality, since accident history can affect long-term value and confidence. It also makes sense to compare trim equipment carefully, because the 2019 Prius spreads key features across the lineup.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup includes L Eco, LE, XLE, and Limited. The base L Eco is the least expensive, while the Limited adds the most equipment, including the top infotainment setup and Safety Connect. The cabin layout is functional, but the design is unusual, and the standard interior tech is basic on lower trims.
• Powertrain: A 1.8-liter four-cylinder hybrid system makes 121 horsepower. An optional electric AWD system adds a rear motor for low-speed traction, but it reduces fuel economy and cargo space.
• Safety package: Toyota Safety Sense is standard and includes adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high-beam headlights. LE adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and Intelligent Clearance Sonar with parking-assist function.
• Infotainment: Lower trims get a 6.1-inch touchscreen with Bluetooth and a CD player. The Limited trim gets an 11.6-inch split-screen display, navigation, the Entune App Suite, a premium JBL sound system, satellite radio, and Safety Connect. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are not included.
• Fuel efficiency: A standard front-drive Prius gets 52 mpg in combined driving, while L Eco reaches 56 mpg. The AWD-e version gets 50 mpg combined.

Which 2019 Toyota Prius trim should I buy?

The 2019 Toyota Prius is offered in 4 trim levels: L Eco, LE, XLE, and Limited.

Here's the short version:

• L Eco: This is the cheapest way into the Prius and the best fit if your priority is maximum efficiency and the lowest starting price. It gives you the core hybrid experience without the extra equipment that pushes the price up.
• LE: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and Intelligent Clearance Sonar. If you want a more complete safety and convenience package without jumping too far up the price ladder, this is the one to target.
• XLE: This trim is the better pick if you want a more upscale feel and are willing to pay for it. It sits above LE and can be paired with AWD-e, but the added traction comes with lower fuel economy and less cargo space.
• Limited: This is the most feature-rich version, with the large 11.6-inch infotainment screen, navigation, JBL audio, satellite radio, and Safety Connect. It makes sense if you want the most technology and convenience the Prius offers.

Toyota Safety Sense is standard on every trim, while LE adds the extra blind-spot and parking-related safety features.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2019 Toyota Prius?

This is still a seller’s market, so you should act selectively and be ready to move when a strong listing appears.

• Deal availability: 29.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 338 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices are up 2.63% year-over-year.
• Clean inventory: 62.1% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $17,991, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2019 Toyota Prius's resale value?

The current average of $19,632 sits slightly above last year's $19,129.

That upward move suggests the Prius is holding value reasonably well for a used hybrid. Strong fuel economy, practical packaging, and broad shopper appeal help support demand, especially when the car is priced competitively. The market also shows enough inventory to give buyers choices, but not so much that sellers need to slash prices aggressively.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2019 Toyota Prius safe?

The 2019 Toyota Prius earns a five-star rating from NHTSA, and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gives it a Top Safety Pick rating. It earns four-star ratings for front passenger protection in a frontal-impact crash, and five-star ratings in all other NHTSA tests.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Toyota Safety Sense is standard and includes adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high-beam headlights. LE adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and Intelligent Clearance Sonar with parking-assist function. Safety Connect is reserved for the Limited trim.

The main caveat is the IIHS note that small overlap front passenger frontal impact protection is rated Acceptable instead of Good.

Should I buy a 2019 Toyota Prius or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2019 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2019 if:

• 29.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 62.1% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices are up 2.63% year-over-year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Toyota revised the trim strategy and added an electric all-wheel-drive option.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $20,966, the 2020 costs more than the current year's $19,632 average.
• It adds a stronger hybrid benchmark identity with broader appeal.

The 2019 is the better pick if you want a lower average price and are comfortable shopping carefully for condition and history. If you can stretch your budget, the 2020 is the cleaner choice for buyers who want the next model year’s broader appeal and are willing to pay more for it.

How does the 2019 Toyota Prius compare to the 2019 Honda Insight?

Our experts score the 2019 Toyota Prius 7.3/10 and the 2019 Honda Insight 7.8/10.

The Insight edges ahead on expert score and has a lower average used price, while the Prius counters with stronger fuel economy and more listings to shop. The Prius also has a slightly higher good-and-great deal share, but the Insight has a cleaner accident-free share. If you want the more efficient and more widely available hybrid, the Prius makes sense; if you want the slightly better-scoring and cheaper alternative, the Insight is worth a look.
