Don't burn gas while stuck in traffic.

This car is ideal for someone for someone who's commute time is mostly driving slow or with lots of idle time. When I first got this car, I had a 6 mile round trip to work and back all on surface streets. Only had fill the tank once a month.

The best car I have ever owned.

It is a very reliable car with little to no maintenance. In addition, it is extremely fuel efficient which saves huge over the time. It is usually very quiet. Although it is only 100 horse power, when you really need speed, the battery and the engine can work together to provide sufficient power.

I love it!

It is an amazing little gas saver. It's comfortable & drives very nicely. I would recommend this car to anyone. I get 45 to 50 miles per gallon.

Best Gas Mileage Ever!

Although it's a compact car, I feel it's roomy in the front. The backseat could use a little more leg room. The mileage I get, is unbelievable! 58.1 mpg and have been able to get 62.4 mpg.! Love my Prius!

It is a best resource for my last car of my life.

It is economical, stylish, comfortable, big enough to haul a dog & grandchildren. It is a great way to get used to the future.

Happy customer

Very reliable, $13 to fill up a tank for 400 miles, easy to use, comfortable. I suggest getting the prius 2 or up, it's definitely worth it!

Just what I needed

I really like my Prius C. The gas mileage is great, and I feel like I'm being good to the planet, even though I still need to use my car. It's very comfortable. On the downside, it takes forever to accelerate and I still haven't figured out some of the buttons, for example the EV energy saver thing. It also doesn't store much, and the GPS system usually takes the long route. Other then that, I'm very satisfied with my car!

Incredible Gas Mileage

I get about 50 mpg on my way to work each day, which is great! There's not a lot of head room in the driver's seat, and in the back seat, you can only be about 5'10" without your head touching the top. Those are my main complaints, but other than that, it's a great car! Super quiet!
