Toyota Prius (Hybrid)

USD 75 / day

Hire a comfortable Toyota Prius hybrid with an English-speaking chauffeur-guide for USD 75/day. Ideal for up to 3 passengers, this quiet, air-conditioned sedan is perfect for long, multi-day tours across Sri Lanka.

Toyota Prius Hire with Driver in Sri Lanka

The Toyota Prius is a popular choice for couples, solo travellers, or small families exploring Sri Lanka. As a hybrid sedan, it offers a quiet, smooth ride and excellent fuel efficiency, making it perfect for multi-day itineraries covering long distances, such as the classic route from the airport to Kandy, through the tea country to Ella, and down to the southern beaches.

Comfort and Capacity

This four-door sedan comfortably seats up to three passengers and accommodates three standard pieces of luggage in the boot. Travellers frequently choose the Prius for its composed highway feel and strong air-conditioning—essential for staying cool during long drives in Sri Lanka's tropical climate. The automatic transmission ensures a smooth journey, even on the winding roads of the central highlands.

What Your Hire Includes

At Discover Sri Lanka, all vehicle hires come with a licensed, English-speaking chauffeur-guide. We do not offer self-drive options, ensuring you can relax and enjoy the scenery without navigating unfamiliar roads. The daily rate of USD 75 includes:

  • The Toyota Prius hybrid vehicle
  • Services of a professional chauffeur-guide
  • Fuel for your journey
  • Air-conditioning
  • Driver's meals and accommodation on multi-day trips
  • An allowance of 150 kilometres per day

If your itinerary requires more driving, extra mileage is charged at a transparent rate of USD 0.32 per kilometre. A deposit of USD 200 is required to secure your booking.

Is the Toyota Prius the Right Vehicle for You?

The Prius is ideal for up to three passengers with moderate luggage seeking a comfortable, quiet ride. However, if you are travelling alone or as a couple with minimal luggage and prefer a slightly lower daily rate, a standard compact sedan might suffice. Conversely, if you have four passengers, bulky luggage (such as surfboards), or simply want more headroom and space to stretch out, we highly recommend upgrading to a minivan, which offers significantly more cabin room for longer tours.
