    The tire pressures can be displayed on the “Multi-information display” by using the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. It’s grouped with the Energy flow display and trip info. It is not explained very well in the manual.

    Also, tire pressures can be checked with the phone App.

    Ok, I found a screen with the above help that kinda shows the tire pressure, but it is really designed for you to set the value for the TPWS system to warn you when it decreases below a specified value. The screen is really buried deep in the menu and not intuitive at all. How about a big screen on the Multimedia display that you easily access under the "Vehicle" menu, huh Toyota? My Honda Ridgeline easily displays my tire pressures.

    I seldom drive the car and my wife has the App on her phone so that function isn't really useful to me

    Thanks to those responding.

    as I recall when I had the vehicle (just about 2-3 months back) you had to go down to the 4th icon (vehicle) and scroll sideways (it is there-had same '24 prime xse premium-that is the same way also on the non plug-in Prius '23-24) Go to this video...3:05 to 3:50

    You can definitely display the real time tire pressures as you drive. As shown in the above video at 3:50.

    Yes! You are both right, finally found the display screen. Using the meter control switches on the left side of the steering wheel you can scroll down to see a vehicle icon on the multi information display that will show all the tire pressures. It took about a minute to display the pressures after first starting the hybrid system this morning.

    I wish it were under the vehicle icon on the multimedia display rather than nested on the multi information display.

    I still don't think it is well described in the manual so thanks to everyone for the info.
