2018 Toyota Prius Prime Hybrid Customer Reviews

Pros

• Fuel Economy

  See notes above. A VERY green vehicle from a polution standpoint. Zero in electric mode and, per EPA, 78 grams per mile in hybrid mode versus the 287 grams claimed by EPA for my 2009 Fit in spite of its "ultra low emmission vehicle" rating.

• Cabin Noise

  Much quieter than my previous owned Honda Fit it replaced.

• Ride and Handling

  Easy and comfortable to drive. Feels solid.

Cons

• Interior Space

  Totally adequate for two people, with baggage, and the rear seat down but suspect there would be a shortage of baggage space for a family with children. This is not an issue for me but might be for others.

Pros

• Fuel Economy

  I'm averaging 106mpg! This car is the ultimate driving machine! In EV mode, you get extra horsepower which makes it feel like a sports car.

• Ride and Handling

  This car feels great. A great amount of space and comfortable steering and driving experience.

• Technology and Entertainment

  This car has a fancy tech display and monitor system inside. It feels awesome glancing at the HUD in the windshield and the car energy monitors on the dashboard.

  Not only leather seats, but also lumbar support and lots of adjustment options.

  The navigation takes me the long way around. No thank you.

  The back window is split but once you get used to it, it's no big deal. I usually put the cargo cover up anyway so I can't see through the lower section of the split.

Cons

• Styling

  No way to add a bike rack without adding a tow hitch

  Three loud overlapping beeps when backing up (seatbelt, reverse and cross traffic)
