Perfect gift for our high school grad

This car is great with gas, runs smoothly, and looks amazing. We totally trust it to drive our daughter to and from college. Thrilled with our purchase!

Last Car I Test Drove-Saved the Best for Last!!

I love the way this car operates. Acceleration is great, power is there if you want it (I always do. lol). Don't let the way most Prius drivers poke along make you stay away from this car. Using cruise control was a dream going thru steep mountains, took the fear out of it because it maintains a steady speed up and down hills. Gas mileage of course is a steady 46.2 mpg no matter how I drive it, sometimes better. I can fit 100 pounds of grain and two bales of hay in it as well. Lots of interior room.

Prius super reliable and superb gas mileage!

I have owned my prius for 7 years and it is the best car I have ever owned. The gas mileage was my original reason for purchasing but the car is comfortable and relaible too.

Most reliable car. Barely any maintenance required

Best car for the money. Has both money saving abilities and environmental conservation qualities. Great value for the money and extremely reliable. Surprisingly fun to drive for a hybrid.

Very good gas saver

I like how quiet it is and getting 50mpg+. Keyless entry and ignition is a great feature. I hope to have it to 300k. Downside is that it had a leak at the timing cover before 90k. Repairs are very expensive.

A great car with an amazing value.

Everyone looking for a Prius knows its not going to be a sports car, however they aren't completely lacking. The interior is very nice so is the dash. I really liked the brake system, it shows you how much you are charging the battery. Bluetooth was very easy to sync up to my phone.

Great dependable car with low gas consumption.

Love this car! I can zip all over town with the easiest of handling. We've taken it to Colorado several times and it does great on the highway & in the mountains. Lots of cargo room... can carry 2 sets of golf clubs & enough of my wife's luggage for a week.

Love the thrifty operation!

Car meets my needs. It a reliable gem. My needs changed now that I am done with commuting and looking for an all wheel drive option for winter highways.

Amazing value

Two are things I would change: longer telescoping wheel, and more noise insulation. Other than that it's great.

Smart money

I know, 5 stars...But honestly it does everything it was meant to better than any other trying to accomplish the same goal. Purchased with 35k on it, now has 80k. One set of snow-ish tires, wiper blades and regular oil changes have been it. More or less a 50MPG average the whole time. Includes a couple of out west ski trips loaded and driving fast.
