Most of us agree that the fifth-generation Toyota Prius is the prettiest yet, so it was inevitable that sooner or later, Japanese tuners would get their hands on the sleek electrified model. T-Demand presented its own version of the Prius with a low-rider look thanks to a significantly lowered suspension, larger-diameter wheels, and a rather controversial stance.
T-Demand offers a long list of suspension modifications for the hybrid Toyota, including new upper and lower arms, toe control, and tie rods by Pro Arm, plus a new set of dampers by Pro Damper. All of the aforementioned components feature a shiny orange finish, making them stand out when looking at the underbody.

The Prius has been further slammed to the ground thanks to the air suspension module, making the effect more dramatic when the vehicle is stationary. The aerodynamic silhouette of the car and the sharp LEDs make it a great candidate for such a conversion, even though the higher ground clearance of the stock model is more usable in daily driving scenarios.
T-Demand also upgraded the braking system with larger discs measuring either 355 mm (14 inches) or 380 mm (15 inches) and six-pot calipers. While the tuner doesn’t mention any performance upgrades, the stronger brakes will definitely help the Prius stop a lot sooner.
And now let’s talk about the elephant in the room. The new set of aftermarket alloy wheels shod in stretched tires has been heavily stanced on both axles, especially in the white-painted Prius that is highlighted on the tuner’s gallery. Stanced cars may not be everyone’s cup of tea but they have a big following in Japan. This mod limits the usability of the vehicle while compromising ride and handling, but some people like the looks of it so much that they don’t really care about the drawbacks.

While the average Toyota Prius buyer wouldn’t opt for such an extreme look, there will certainly be some owners willing to do anything in order to make their hybrid stand out.
