I have owned this vehicle for one and a half years with approximately 20,000 miles on it. The Prius' construction is great, it is light-weight, handles quite well, and has a spacious interior. I have been able to fill the trunk with a week's worth of groceries while comfortably carrying five people (including a 6' 6" male in the back seat). The car's displays are all digital and easy to read. I camp often and was able to take the Prius to the beach near California's Big Sur. The car made the steep, winding drive along the cliffs with ease. I was even able to fold down the back seat and sleep on the flat surface rather than use a tent. The Bluetooth works well and the center console has a usb port perfect for charging devices or playing media. The mileage is amazing, and there is not a significant loss of power having a hybrid engine - mainly a drop in acceleration. Across 20,000 miles I have averaged nearly 45 mpg with an even split between city and highway driving.

I love driving and owning my Toyota Prius. It is an older model car but felt solid and dependable. If there were ever an issue, the mechanics assured me that my car would last a long time. They have a good reputation even with mechanics. The gas mileage is amazing. I rarely had to fill the tank, and I would drive all over LA. I've taken it cross country during the summer and winter months with no issues at all. Kept me cool in the hotter environments, the drive was comfortable and I felt safe. It's easy to park because it's so small, yet doesn't feel compact on the inside. It has over 200,000 miles on it, but it never made strange noises, and the parts didn't fall off. It feels almost new. I hope my next car can be a Prius as well.
