The Toyota Prius is a fun car to drive. It is not a luxury car by any means, but it is comfortable and well-designed. I've taken many long family trips in that car, and it has enough space to hold things, is quiet enough, and has enough front and back leg room for all the passengers. The Prius is a little more expensive than similar-sized sedans, but its improved gas mileage and less frequent oil changes save money and time (at the gas station and at the shop) on a month-to-month basis.
