This is a great all-around vehicle for nearly all demographics. It excels in achieving great gas mileage at approx. 55 MPG. It is practical in the layout of its interior space, yet is compact from it outside dimensions making it easy to park. Depending on the trim level you choose you can have navigation, heated seats and all the other features of a luxury car without the price. It has exceptional reliability and I plan on driving this car into the ground before I consider replacing it.

My 2008 Toyota Prius feels like a member of the family. We have had the car for 7 years and it currently reads 212,000 miles on the odometer. In that amount of time, we have had little to no problems with it. It is a commuter car for our family. The gas mileage is amazing and has saved our family so much money. We did have to replace the auxiliary batter this past summer, however, that is the ONLY thing (aside from tires and breaks) that we have ever had to replace on it due to age and ware. We have hit two deer with it, and apart from some cosmetic issues that little car is a beast. It is comfortable and still has a smooth drive. After all of the years, four children, and two large dogs, the interior still looks pretty great! There are some stains from little kids but it still remains soft and easy to clean. I have no complaints about the car. It is a simple and lovely vehicle, that has safely carted our family around for many years. It cleans up very nice and saves us so much money. Combined gas mileage is 49 miles per gallon. We have road tripped to Colorado from Missouri to Florida from Missouri, and to New Jersey from Missouri in our Prius making the trips comfortable and affordable. In a few years, this car will go down to our oldest son and we will be purchasing another Prius without question.
