Used 2012 Toyota Prius v for Sale near British Columbia

I went from a 2006 Prius to the 2012 Prius V. The ride in the V is smoother, quieter, vehicle feels heavier, more grounded. Cargo space is larger. The back seats move forward and back separately and also recline. Even though the back side windows are more streamlined, the mirrors accommodate and the visibility is good. The 2012 V with opt pkg 2 had the features most important to me: b/u camera, Bluetooth, cloth seats and smart key. The smart key feature was confusing when shopping. Key-less entry is not the same as smart key, although they are often used interchangeably in vehicle descriptions. Smart key has a chip in the door handle which allows the doors to be locked/unlocked without having the key in hand. On my opt pkg 2 only the drivers door has this chip, while my old Prius had chips in the 2 front doors and in the back hatch handle. A slight inconvenience but not a deal-breaker. One of the first things I did was change the door lock setting so that all doors unlock simultaneously. I imagine the default is to have only the drivers door unlock for safety reasons, but it is a source of frustration for me. I am very happy with my purchase, love my Prius V. Thanks CarGurus for helping me shop from home.

Although the Prius V is technically a "station wagon" it certainly does not look like one. It comes off looking more like a smaller SUV or a Crossover. The design is so sleek and suburban that you really don't need to have a family to own this car. I'm a 26-year old and I use this car to pack friends in for a night out and to haul groceries back home. The cargo space is definitely bigger than some of my families' smaller SUVs. The drive is smooth and quiet. Gas mileage is fantastic - I get anywhere from 44 mpg to 56 mpg on the highway. I definitely feel in control when I drive in the city or on the highway. I love my Prius V!

Lots of space, great gas mileage, super reliability. What more could you want?

Absolutely love this model, it is way more roomy. Back seats are more bucket style, and not the bench like in the hatchback. More leg space, way more cargo space. Plus the back window is much easier to see through when backing up when driving or changing lanes.

Roomy, smooth, economical. Bells and whistles still to learn about
