What a great vehicle

I researched the Prius extensively before buying a late-model (2016) version of the Prius 2. So far, I'm beyond pleased. It is a pleasure to drive . . .and I've been getting an average of 62 MILES TO THE GALLON!!!!!! Very comfortable car. Nicely appointed. And it has a lot of acceleration . . .something I didn't expect from a hybrid.

Newly purchased used 2016

This is my second Prius. Unblemished and unbelievable the changes since 2010 in this car. All issues I had with first Prius are now gone!!! Excessive road noise-gone Poor Acceleration to merge into traffic- gone Poor ac/ heat performance- gone Inability to hear stereo for noise- gone Weight factor for road handling so incredible of an improvement. The list goes on and on. And 58 mpg!!! This car is a keeper.

Reliable

Great economy and reliability. No maintenance required. Close to 80MPG at times. Gas prices are going up so I have the right car. Only have to get gas about once a month.

Great on gas, comfortable interior.

I was looking for a car that is good on gas and not expensive. I wanted it to be roomy for our 5 people family. This car has great features, super quiet, safe and cool looking.

Second Prius

My first Prius (2010 - 2) had 248,000 miles WITHOUT ANY mechanical issue. Faithfully changed synthetic oil every 10,000 miles. Comfortable on long trips:. I am 6'5".

Third Prius we have owned

Stay with the Prius because of their reliability and performance. Averaging 63.5 mpg with over 31,000 miles on it. Only issues are road noise is a little more than we would like and the rear window is too small.

Much More Comfort then Previous Model

I enjoy sitting in this Prius for long rides more so than the previous model. The seats are more molded, and the steering has more of a centered-feel to it. Car is also quieter than the previous model by quite a bit. Also the gas mileage is up. I have one tank of mostly fuel-econonomical city driving that recorded 60.4 mpg, and one mostly highway recording 57.4 mpg
