Excited about my new Prius

I've been wanting a hybrid car and Prius offered the best mileage, repair record and styling. It's the perfect second car for my husband and me.

Love this car!!!

Consist great gas mileage. Passengers are always surprised how roomy it seems inside. Extra safety features saved me money in insurance. Quiet. Dependable. I like that it makes a statement about how important environmental and economic concerns can come together.

I'm on my 2nd Prius

I got onboard in 2014, then bought the 2018 model which I currently drive. I really enjoy the Toyota Safety Sense™ which comes standard on many new Toyotas including the Prius. The level of safety and security I feel having Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detectiion, Blind Spot Warning, Lane Departure Alert, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, and Automatic High Beams. It makes driving so much less risky that I find it more enjoyable than ever,

Easy to drive and excellent gas mileage

This car is not large but extremely comfortable. The mpg are much better than anticipated, and for the size it is there's actually a lot of storage space.

A fun and economical car.

Where else can you go getting an average of over 55 mpg and have fun while doing it. I can wave at gas stations with needing to fuel every minimum 2 weeks. This non plug in Prius is wonderful.

JD Powers? Really? They are mercenaries.

This is my second Toyota Prius. My first was a 2015 and it was a good reliable cheap to run car. My 2018 is a better car by far. More comfortable, quiet, better mileage and better handling than the previous versions. The adaptive cruise along with all the other safety features makes this car a better car than previous years. So far, with 25000 miles on it, not one problem. Gas mileage of over 60 MPG in the summer and the mid 50's in winter. Hauling ability is excellent with this car. You can stretch out and sleep in the back with the seats down while allowing the A/C to run all night as the A/C unit is electric and the lithium ion batteries can run it all night. I've saved tons on motel bills while traveling. It's like a mini camper! Tires are fairly inexpensive for this car. Ride quality is much improved over previous years. Toyota has added more sound insulation to the 2018's and newer so it is more comfortable on the ears when driving or listening to the excellent JBL factory stereo. Now about JD Powers. It is nothing more than an advertising company. Any car company can pay them for a good review and get their JD Powers awards....which means NOTHING. Gullible people will see the JD Powers award and think that they are getting quality...which often times they are not. Finally, I highly recommend the Toyota Prius....the batteries will last a long time and being a hybrid, you will really enjoy not having to stop at the gas stations so often.

Prius, King of the Hybrid Market

Most reliable car on the market today. Best gas mileage of all hybrid cars. Absolutely stunning interior with amazing lines. I drove a 2009 Prius for 10 years. It was time to upgrade.

Love it! Best car I have ever bought.

The Prius has all the room needed even for big people my son is big (over 400 lbs) and 6 ft. tall and he has plenty of room for riding or driving. Has all the power one needs and is just a comfy car.

Awesome hybrid vehicle

This is the 4th Prius our family has owned, and that’s because the Prius is simply the best hybrid out there. The new design is so sleek and attractive. And the performance is superb.
