That $32,350 starting price is for the base Prius Prime SE, which comes with standard equipment like 17-inch wheels and an 8.0-inch touchscreen. Moving up to the XSE trim will cost you $35,600, and that adds larger 19-inch wheels, an optional 12.3-inch touchscreen, and power, leatherette seats, among other features.
Going all-out on the Prius Prime XSE Premium will set you back at least $39,170. That model adds a standard 12.3-inch touchscreen, an upgraded JBL audio system, and a sleek fixed glass roof.
