Toyota Prius Hatchback 1.5 VVTi T4 Hybrid 5d CVT Auto (2005/05) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Somewhat higher but this is to be expected. Toyota say they're working on reducing the difference in future. Lots of kit for the price though.
Costs
What costs? I added some accessories. No unexpected expenses.

Driving
Super smooth and relaxing. Soothing after a day's work. No need to shift, shift, shift.
Performance
Family car, not a race about. Does well at normal speeds and even when caning it a bit.

Living with it
Reliability
Spot on. No problems. Recently called the most reliable car sold in the USA - bar none.

The youths and 20 somethings love it - pity I'm not young and single, I've had lots of young ladies at work ask for rides (in the car!) - also everyone asks if I have to plug it into the mains at night..... no.....
Comfort
Very comfortable for up to five, boot is decent too.
