I don't understand people saying the Prius isn't fast. I just bought a 2018 Prius 4 and as I was merging onto the freeway I set the cruise control to accelerate and forgot to monitor it. As I was looking over some of the new tech when I just happened to notice, because it wasn't making a sound, that I was travelling ONE HUNDRED AND SIX MILES AN HOUR! I'm 64 and the fastest I've ever driven was when I got a ticket for going 90+ in a 65mph zone - also in a Prius (2004) because it didn't feel like I was going fast. Another time, there is an onramp to the freeway near me that is actually on a steep incline. More than once I have caught myself accelerating to almost 90mph before I reach the top of the hill! (I live in a rural area so traffic, even on the freeway is pretty light.) Seriously, every time the car I do this it's because ride istso smooth I don't notice. The Pruis for me is more than plenty fast.

The aygo was one of the worst cars i ve ever driven. Its very loud, got plastik erverywhere, feels so fucking unsafe, has no space, is slow af, very scary to drive over 100 kmh (its very unstable, especially at wind), has a turning circle of a bus, uses far too much fuel from 70kmh onwards (for the 69 PS version), looks very bad and the unterior is so minimalistic, cramped, old-fashioned, impractical and just super cheap and shabbily made. And for the automatic version, that really dont wont do change gears, its so fucking terrible.
