long drives are a pain the .... well, you know. the car is not a comfortable as I would like. limited range of adjustments. Not bad for a couple of hours or even on a easy road trip but, more than 10 hours in a day? not for me. too bad. see full Toyota Prius review |

The Prius hybrid drive seamlessly blends the gas and electric motors to give me adaquate pick up / acceleration when needed but more than excellent fuel economy on a vehicle that is considered midsize. see full Toyota Prius review |

The cleverness of the design. The way the HSD combines output from MG1, MG2 and the ICE. see full Toyota Prius review |

zero to 60 in 60 minutes. see full Toyota Prius review |

It is very slow, but this is expected I guess. see full Toyota Prius review |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
The engine is extremely loud when accelerating almost anywhere. It's REALLY slow. About 10.1 sec 0-60 when new. About 12 sec I'm guessing now. The battery is getting weaker and can doesnt run as often in EV mode as it used to. I have to floor the car often to get on the freeway. This lowers MPG a LOT. This is why I don't really get the advertised MPG. see full Toyota Prius review |

Yikes, where to start. Scary overtaking on highway. Weak on hills. see full Toyota Prius review |

| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
The low rolling resistance tires give the car it's great fuel economy. These tires have no grip and when you're in an emergency situation, the car understeers. When going around a corner, it understeers. This is a huge reason why the car handles badly. see full Toyota Prius review |
