Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The 2017 Toyota Prius Prime relies on both the engine air filter and the cabin air filter for distinct but equally important roles. The engine air filter protects the 1.8L inline engine from particulates that can reduce combustion efficiency and accelerate wear, helping maintain the Prius Prime’s excellent city/highway economy. The cabin air filter keeps pollen, dust, and road odors out of the passenger compartment to preserve air quality for everyone inside. At Larry H. Miller Toyota Murray in Murray, UT, our certified technicians inspect both filters during routine maintenance and explain differences in plain language so you can make informed decisions. Choosing OEM parts and timely replacement prevents costly downstream repairs and preserves the vehicle’s performance and resale value.
