I owned a 2006 Prius for 10 years before purchasing my 2015 Prius Three. My 2006 had 49,500 miles on it when I traded it in and was an excellent car to own. So far my new 2015 Prius Three has met all my expectations and I am very pleased with my purchase.
Depending on what you are looking for, this car delivers. Space to take 5 adults w/o crowding, roomy storage/trunk covered, seats fold down to haul large items, easy clean interior but not cheap looking as some have said. The v-6 is the best choice as the numbers show, with only 1 mpg difference. But the power difference isn't even close! 0 to 60 in 6 second times. Climbs hills with ease. Holds value well. Easy to enter or exit. On a recent trip to Cambria my mileage was 26 overall. Passing cars at freeway speeds was exhilarating and quick.
I use this car to drive to/from work. My family uses a different one, but the kids like to ride in the Avalon because it goes fast. I don't really like the radio. It is not as "smart" as I would have expected (this is the reason for the 4 star rating). All in all, it has a lot of room, quick, leather interior, and the radio sounds great despite its shortcomings IMO.
This price does not include tax, title, and tags. Additional fees may also apply depending on the state of purchase.
