REVIEW: The car is very good on gas but not good on a take off. It is slow. Be careful on passing some one. Make sure you have enough time to get around them, not much of a pick up. Good amount of space for people and luggage. It rides nice and is very quiet. When the gas gage gets down to 2 squares on the ...

CONS: Rear sightlines and steering wheel is not adjustable.

REVIEW: After 15,000 miles I really don't understand why all cars do not use this technology. We have room, comfort, cool features (back-up camera, smart key, etc.), and 46 to 48 mpg commuting on Los Angeles area freeways. Even with a 60 mile daily commute, we only have to fill the tank once every 7 ...

CONS: Poor initial pickup, no integrated IPOD support, no override on navigation and and squeaky front sea

REVIEW: I paid more than I should have paid but the vehicle worth it. I bought it fully loaded, but it does not have the IPOD support. Aftermarket installation is rather expensive. I would like to be able to override the navigation system and the blue tooth because my shot-gun driver should be able to ...

CONS: Not the best on ice but definitely do-able

REVIEW: This car converted my husband to the "green" side of life. We are very pleased with our purchase and get almost 60mpg in summer, 53mpg winter. I love how the engine shuts off at stop lights and RR tracks -- my husband loves the pickup it has for passing. It's fun to watch how long ...

CONS: Haven't found one!!!

REVIEW: When we first got the car, we went on a 3800 mile trip from Reno to east of Dallas-we averaged about 75mile an hour and for the entire trip we got 50.2 miles per gallon of gas. The thing that we were most pleased with was the comfort of the ride, it rides like a much bigger car and handles the ...

CONS: rear window takes time to get use to...everyone seems to be buying them the wait list is long

REVIEW: Well it looks like i don't like the car but really i love it. After wanting a Lexus 350 RX well i seattled for a Pruis. -hum step down eh?- but the leg room in the back is great to haul elder and handicapped around which is a plus. Even the front has nice leg space and i don't feel like ...

CONS: Limited rear vision, sound system

REVIEW: After specifically asking for one, I got a Prius from the car rental agency on our recent vacation. The first thing I noticed is that this is a car you actually have to read the manual for....there is a bit of a learning curve involved in just getting it going (the agency thoughtfully left the ...

CONS: Just learning all of the next features...

REVIEW: Love the gas mileage. I deliver newspapers on house delivery route and average between 52.5 and 58.7 MPG. I managed to get 60.4 MPG on two of my recent days when babying it. Big, big difference from the 15-17 MPG in my mini-van. On the newspaper route I can make u-turns almost anywhere I ...

CONS: The driver's seat is not comfortable for long trips. Bad visibility at corners.

REVIEW: I never owned a new car before but this one meets all expectations for a new car. It looks good, it is fun to drive, it is great on gas, the sound system is excellent. I have driven through blizzards, down gravel roads, cross half the country and through a monsoon. Never, yet ever, a problem ...
