Where is the engine air filter located on a 2014 Toyota Prius?

This location lets you access the filter by unclipping the airbox cover and lifting it to remove the panel-style element.

Whats the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter on a 2014 Toyota Prius?
The engine air filter protects the 1.8L inline-4 intake from debris, while the cabin air filter cleans HVAC air for passengers.
Both filters matter but serve different systems. The engine element supports combustion efficiency and helps maintain fuel economy, whereas the cabin filter targets pollen, dust, and odors inside your Prius. In Utahs dusty and pollen-heavy seasons, many drivers notice cabin filter effects firstālike reduced airflow.
- Engine filter: shields throttle body/MAF from dirt
- Cabin filter: improves in-cabin air quality via HVAC
- Different locations, different media and airflow paths
What are the signs of a clogged air filter on a 2014 Toyota Prius?
Common signs include reduced power, lower MPG, rougher idle (engine filter), and weak airflow or musty odors (cabin filter).
In a 2014 Prius, a dirty engine filter can make the hybrid system feel sluggish under acceleration and may nudge up fuel consumption. A clogged cabin filter often shows up as noisy fans, foggy windows that clear slowly, or allergy irritation. Utahs dust, wildfire smoke, and winter road sand can accelerate loading.

- Cabin: reduced vent airflow, odor, increased fan speed
