Our review of the TINGLU Window Shades for Toyota Prius Hatchback 2016-2022 finds them best suited for Prius Hatchback owners who want a tailored, easy-to-install heat and privacy solution. The single biggest reason to buy is the customized fit: these six-piece shades are cut to match the Prius Hatchback windows so they sit flush with edges and minimize light leakage. Installation is quick and the double-layer reflective fabric promises reduced cabin temperatures and strong UV protection, making them practical for daily drivers and weekend campers alike.

Key Features

• Customized Design: Each shade is shaped for the Toyota Prius Hatchback 2016-2022 so no trimming is needed and edges align to reduce gaps.
• Sunlight Protection: The double-layer heat shield material blocks over 99% of harmful UV rays to protect upholstery and electronics from sun damage.
• Keeps Interior Cooler: Reflective fabric and insulation help reduce heat buildup by up to about 40F, which can lower cabin temperature and slow interior aging.
• Privacy Coverage: The six-piece kit provides full side and rear coverage so passengers have a private, darker cabin for naps or camping.
• Sturdy Construction: A metal frame and tight liner prevent sagging and resist wrinkling, keeping shades flat against windows.
• Easy Install & Store: Pop-open design installs in seconds, folds down to about one tenth size, and stores in the included pouch or multifunctional bag.

Who It's For

The TINGLU kit is ideal for Toyota Prius Hatchback owners (model years 2016-2022) who want a vehicle-specific sunshade set that installs quickly and provides both UV protection and privacy. It is a solid choice for commuters who park in direct sun, families who need a cooler rear cabin for children, and owners who use their Prius for overnight camping or naps.

It is not for Prius C or Prius V models, so buyers with those variants should look for a kit specifically made for their model. Also, drivers who expect perfectly permanent attachment of rear shades with heavy door use should be aware some customers report rear pieces can shift when doors are opened hard.
