Great vehicle- our third Prius.

We throughly enjoy our Prius. The mileage has been phenomenal, anything from 49 to 65 miles per gallon. The amount of room is great especially when long distance driving when we pack lots of items for family and friends. Especially when attending H quilting retreats with machines, tables, foofsnd clothes for 4 to 10 days.

Disappointed but glad it gets 58 mpg in the city.

I love getting such great gas mileage! I don’t love that the front end is so low to the ground that I often scrape that bumper when I pull straight in to park. I also do not love that there is no trunk release on the key fab or inside the car and that I have to stretch very high to pull the trunk down to close it.

My second Prius

The high miles per gallon was just one selling point. I love the handling, reliability, value for the money, performance, reliability....really everything about it. If I had it to do over, I would have picked even more options like sensors for lanes, someone in my blind spots, pedestrian warnings, getting too close to an obstruction.

In love with LooC

LooC (pronounced Lucy) is my second Prius and I love her dearly. The only reason I gave up Ellie, my 2005 Prius, was that my daughter and family wanted it. I had driven it for 11 carefree years and decided they had waited long enough. LooC has every convenience known to man and she is a jewel.

Happy Toyota owner

Love the mileage and the fact I am not producing tons of green house gas. Can’t beat 68 mph on a trip. Lots of room in the back too. Very dependable. A little low to the ground for curbs and speed bumps.

Prius ia a great car

Like the Prius. This is my third Prius. They could have done a better job with the sun visors - I'm short and the seat is pretty far up and the sun visor still doesn't even begin to block the sun where I sit. About 8 months ago, I started having problems with Entune updates. Whenever there is an Entune update, my iPhone unpairs with the car. Not that big of a deal. But the update also wipes out all of my radio channels. This is a big deal because I have Sirius XM and I have 36 channels. Recently, I had 4 Entune updates within 7 days. I don't even bother reprogramming all 36 channels because I know I'll have to reprogram them again before long. I have been dealing with this issue for too long and Toyota cannot seem to figure out a solution. .

Prius 3 Exceeds Expectations

Our Prius 3 is incredible!. It looks great, features high-tech controls and safety gear, has a roomy interior, and gets between 60 and 70 miles per gallon. Toyota manufacturing quality and service programs are superb. We like the fuel efficiency, moon roof, radio quality, rear view mirror controls and control panel displays. The Prius 3 has more power and acceleration than its predecessor, is sleek, and is easy to maintain. The back seat often carries our grandchildren, and the trunk easily handles any heavy duty shopping trip. The Prius is a perfect vehicle for young at heart retirees.

2016 Prius

Couple of things that I really don't like about the 2016 Prius. One is the collision prevention. Most of my work commute is on the interstate and when you get 3 or 4 car lengths behind the car in front of you, your car starts slowing down. Second problem is the sun visors. They are way to short lengthwise and width. I've tried to find a solution online.

So Far Great

Great so far. it has performed great and gets better gas mileage than advertised. Only one minor suggestion on the interior functions. Rides better than expected. Would recommend to others if looking for a gas/electric auto.

Super mileage, very reliable, but quirky design and awkward instrumentation.

The 2016 redesigned Prius has mamy improvements and a few glaring disappointments. See below for details. Overall, we love the handling, reliability, and economy of this car. It is particularly good for around-town trips, but less so for road trips because of the limited space. Its worst disappointment is its poorly executed instrumentation, both in design and functionality.

This is a nice Car, the Prius

I like my Prius, its nice when you pull up to the Gas’s station and say fill it up and know that you will be getting a good 400 to 500 miles out of this tank of gas. It rides well and I just wish it was a we little bit bigger. But I will keep it for now.

I love my Prius

I love my Prius from the gas mileage, to interior features and overall performance. I really like getting the free 3 month Sirius subscription and have kept it since. The ride is quiet, and the car is dependable.

Mostly very good to excellent, but with a few annoying "quirks."

We have the 2016 remodeled and redesigned Prius. While it really hits the mark in terms of fuel efficiency, reliability, and handling, it misses on some practical design elements. The good: Fantastic mileage (50+ MPG overall), great reliability, excellent routine and emergency handling, excellent headlights, comfortable front seating, great safety features and safety rating, and "easy on the eyes." The not-so-good: Poor storage space, especially up front and no place for tools. Terrible sun visors (nearly useless). Rear visibility partially obstructed. Very confusing and in some ways unusable instrument panel (e.g., no metric settings, extremely confusing/convoluted navigation that's almost impossible to use, cluttered with too much "useless" information, frequently self-resets, impossible to comprehend icons and symbols, very incomplete, but still huge, instruction manual), somewhat difficult to get in and out of, annoying Sirius satellite radio system that can't be eliminated (with never-ending mail advertisements), Also, no bumpers and low-slung design make it very vulnerable to dings and scratches. Hopefully, Toyota has addressed many/most of the issues in the newer versions.

Great car, comfortable and quiet

I love this car! I’m already appreciating the mileage. The sound system is definately a step up from what I’m used to. It’s a little smaller than My 2005 Subaru Outback. But it is plenty big enough for my needs. Toyota has a good reputation for safety and reliability, time will tell on that point.

Prius Love!

Our 2016 Prius is our second Toyota. We are in love with it! Love the way it drives, rides, looks and especially the mileage!!! If asked, there are very few changes I would make. This may be our second Prius, but I am certain, it will not be our last!

A good little car

I like my 2016 Prius C. It is my first hybrid. I gave up an 88 Honda CRX for this car. Honda was starting to fall apart. I am please to be getting a little better fuel economy with my Prius. About 55 mpg in the winter and over 60 MPG in the warmer weather. It could use a Nav. system and more control for music using the USB port. And I have found the car does not calculate fuel millage very well (always high) Just little things that could be easily fixed if Toyota would take the time to do so. The small size and the turning radius are great. Along with the comfort and ease of driving. I like it very much and my get another new one in 2020.

An excellent vehicle

I am very happy with my Prius. I get close to 60 mph (just a hybrid, not a plugin), a comfortable ride, smooth performance, and wonderful safety features. Maybe the next one will be all-electric, but that depends on battery technology.

2016 prius

I enjoy driving this car. It gets great mileage, typically better than 50 mpg in town and on the freeway. The on screen menu is more complicated than I need, but this is not a problem since I only use a few options. The GPS navigator is more difficult to use than Google Maps on my iPhone, so I just use the phone app for navigation.

I've driven 3 different Prius vehicles and love them all. The newest model gets even better gas mileage. The vehicles are so smart the way they conserve energy and their safety features, I wish all car makers adopted Toyotas science
