Toyota Prius (2010 - 2014) Reviews, Pricing & Specs

The car is great. Awesome MGPs. I love the way I fit in the cockpit, it feels like I'm driving a spaceship. Driving is super smooth. I wish I had a backup cam because it's difficult to see out of the back window. Decent turn radius. Extra hidden storage tray in the trunk. You can pull back on the joystick to slow down without wearing out the brakes. There is a filter button for when you are driving through a stinky area. Even though it is a higher tech car I still feel like I can work on it without have to buy a bunch of unique tools. Now I just need to figure out how to maximize the MPGs by driving slower. Even with my lead foot I average 41 MPG.Jan 14, 2026

There’s a lot of great technology in this car. Acceleration is adequate if you need it. Super efficient if you don’t. I love the displays that keep track of your fuel efficiency. Very informative. I get 57 mpg without trying all that hard. I love being able to run the A/C without the engine running. Keyless entry is great. The back seats fold back flat so you can sleep in it, perfect for car camping! Some of the benefits of electric, with the convenience of gas. Love it!Apr 21, 2022

While there is road/wind noise on the freeway, it's not as pronounced in the liftback as it is in the prius c. The longer wheelbase and heavier weight also helps to subdue the bumps/vibrations on the road compared to the c. Lots of trunk space, and if you need more, the back seats fold down for extra room. There's plenty of room for passengers too, though three grown adults in the back may be cramped. Three kids should be fine however. Great fuel economy, you can easily get more than 50 mpg in this car unless you drive very fast, like 75 mph or more, or use it for very short trips that take less than 15 minutes..Sep 23, 2014

Awesome handling, quiet ride, 50+ mpg, stellar looks, doesn't kill your wallet at the pump. Build quality is first rate. Why can't US manufacturers build cars like the imports do? The Prius with the Plus Performance package is an incredible car to drive. It handles like it is on rails yet will get well over 50 mpg. What more could a person say? If you can afford to buy one, do it. It will be in your family for many years to come and pay for itself many times in that period. Today's performance is not about running 105 octane trick gas and getting less than 10 mpg while collecting tickets. It's about spending as little on gas as you can so you are not funding those crazy oil producing countries so much.Apr 13, 2012

Solid history of great performance. If you have to buy a car these days, it makes the most sense to buy a hybrid because the gas engine is going to be the buggy whip of the 21st century. This car is excellent for a number of applications, but has some downsides. Before you buy, make sure that the visibility issue, mentioned above, is not a problem for you.Jan 19, 2011
