The 2021 Toyota Prius Prime Hybrid earns praise for excellent fuel economy, smooth handling, and advanced technology, though space limitations due to the battery and inconsistent Android Auto availability are drawbacks. Comfortable seats and quiet ride enhance appeal, but limited power and visibility issues are noted.
