2017 Toyota Prius v consumer reviews

I researched for a long time for an economical, fair priced car. We owned a Prius 2 for 5 years. As long as Toyota keeps making cars like this I will be a faithful customer. Recently we traded this car in and purchased a 2017 Prius V & a 2013 Prius C. Both of these cars have excellent gas mileage and are the most dependable vehicles we have ever owned.

I have purchased over 40 cars in my life and the Prius V is among my two favorites, the other a 1984 Toyota Celica. My wife wanted the Prius V back in 2012 and I scoffed. But she got one and it has been a jewel. We?ve put 110,000 miles on it and with the exception of replacing headlamps twice have done nothing but routine maintenance. So when my 2008 Lexus was due for replacement I looked at a dozen different car models and settled on another Prius V.

THIS LITTLE CAR WAS NAMED BIGGEST SMALL CAR BY " CAR AND DRIVER" FOR INTERIOR ROOMINESS. MY UBER PASSENGERS ARE ALWAYS IMPRESSED AND SURPRISED B Y THE COMFORT. EVEN OTHER PRIUS OWNERS ARE SURPRISED.

We frequently travel, usually short distances, with our dog... 65 pounds of muscle and energy. We are all comfortable, with good leg, head, and shoulder room in the front seats, and the dog in the second row. There is plenty of storage room and a wide and easy to open and close rear hatch that handles grocery shopping with ease, and has managed some fairly large home improvement items. I do drive at or slightly slower than the speed limit, and the car gives between 46-51 miles per gallon of fuel versus the EPA reported 39. Having driven mostly fast cars with manual transmissions, the proximity key fob, keyless ignition, and CVT took some getting used to, but nothing significant. The sensors are even smart enough to refuse to lock the vehicle with the key fob inside - pretty cool that Toyota thought of that.

The car feels solid and rides like a luxury sedan. The electric adjustable seats are a good addition. I love the heads-up display and the console display. The seat material is soft and leathery, very nice. It comes with plastic floor protectors, even for the back hatch area. Nice touch.

It?s been a good car so far. Still learning call the bells & whistles. It?s good to have a reliable car again. Staff was very friendly & not pushy.

We got what we wanted in a hybrid SUV. It is red with a light interior. It is a model 4 missing a few bells and whistles but not many. We love the ride and the communication system in the car. It was used but by the dealer for only 1150 miles.

I owe the car less then a month, and I enjoy to drive it. Exterior and and interior fine. Acceleration is pretty good especially in pwr mode. As for information shown on dashboard as for me some of it is not necessary, but I'd like to see current tires pressure that isn't shown. I think manual turning light in model two is bad idea, auto lighting have to be in all models.

Excellent except noisy for my taste when accelerating but is compensated by greate mileage per gallon.

Visibility, safety features, and fuel efficiency are the top items on my list. With the Prius V, I got that plus the technology, comfort and cargo space and a really striking and beautiful design
