The 2016 Prius uses smaller, lighter hybrid components, including a new lithium-ion hybrid battery that replaces the nickel-metal hydride battery (excluding the Prius Two non-Eco grade) in most models. On top of that, both the intake and exhaust systems are quieter than before. 2016 Toyota Prius Four Touring.
