The 2024 Toyota Prius engine air filter sits inside the sealed intake airbox in the engine bay.

Open the hood and look for the rectangular airbox attached to the intake ducting; the filter is secured under its clipped or bolted cover. This location protects the inline 4-cylinder 2.0L engine’s intake track from dust common around Peoria and Greater Phoenix. If you’re unsure, our team can confirm placement during a quick inspection when you schedule service.

The 2024 Toyota Prius cabin air filter is typically behind the glove box in the HVAC intake.

Lower or remove the glove box to access the cabin filter tray, which screens pollen and dust before air reaches passengers.

If you prefer, we’ll handle the trim steps and disposal when you schedule an appointment.

Toyota Genuine filters are designed to fit the Priuss 2.0L inline-four (regular unleaded) and its climate control system, maintaining airflow and efficiency.
