My wife and I are going to be new car shopping very soon and we live in an apartment that doesn’t have any sort of plug-in facility and the only place that we could plug-in with relatively close distance to where we normally are is my work so a Tesla would not work for us. So definitely would go for the Prius.

Not M3. I was seriously thinking of getting the Ioniq 5, but when I saw the 2023 Prius at the LA Auto Show last year, I switched to the Prius. It's been a year and I'm now a proud owner of a 2023 Prius Prime XSE Premium in blue. Picked it up two months ago and have only spent about $10 in gas since. I love it!

I dont have one but common sense. i would definitely suggest using the gas and refilling it every month or 2 because if gas sits in the engine it can degrade. Not sure how significant this logic is tbh amd effects in the motor ect but i would recommend using and replacing fuel periodicaly.​@mrxman581

I've put 15K on mine so far. I've grown SO insanely tired of the complaint about the steering and cluster. Even the view shown in this is just ridiculous. Unless you are sleeping while driving you would NEVER see this as shown. And when you look at the say he is setting at the 3:00 mark the steering wheel is like a foot off from his lap. It's designed to be lower. I'm a car guy. I've owned a 3000GTVR4, Corvette, and currently have a 911. I've worked in the power train industry for 18 years. But when you have a hybrid (and this is my first) there is a reason for the gauge cluster to set this way. It is because you do find yourself glancing down very frequently to monitor the power band you are in. This is not the same thing as RPMs. If you haven't driven a hybrid this is completely lost on you, as it would have been before I purchased this car. But, because you do care about mileage to some degree, you look down to see where you are on the power band to adjust to maximize the mileage. A simple adjusting of a pound or two can send it from 25MPG to 75MPG. So you have the cluster setting in a place where it is easily usable to do this. AND IT WORKS WELL! You can see everything great. The steering wheel is a smaller diameter and allows for easier viewing and placement. I love the car so far. I did a lot of research before buying it. And I've been happy with it so far.

@@ermahgawd3889 The engine does the heavy lifting. The motor helps, and completely takes over as less power from acceleration is required. So if you are keeping a steady speed the motor will run and the engine will kick off. This is all based on the power requirements. So if you are accelerating the engine will kick back on. But it is so smooth you can't feel it. There is no starter in a hybrid. So there is no sudden jolt.

With a drive time of an hour and one minute to go 23.3 miles I got a 71.7 MPG average.

I'm from Korea and interestingly, I've watched reviews about Prius basically from Korea and Japan. what people say about the dash is completely different from what people from the west say. Basically, we from asia find the dash very useful as it sort of acts as an HUD and people didn't complain about the visibility as it was excellent. I myself also had a test drive session and found it pleasant to look at.

I love my 2023 Prius. I've got almost 10k miles on it (bought back in March) and it's been awesome. I get 60 MPG regularly in city driving. The main issue I have with it is the road and wind noise at highway speeds. It's super dependent on the road quality, when you're driving on a bad road it's pretty darn loud. I also wish the gauge cluster was more customizable, it's too cluttered imo. The placement of the cluster doesn't bother me at all and I think works pretty well

The rear visibility is significantly reduced compared to prior Prius models (which were exceptional), however if you go for a higher trim with the digital mirror it certainly more than compensates for this (as well as compensate for lack of rear wiper). I was a bit unsure of the digital mirror initially, but once I got used to it, it’s been great. 👍🏻

Ditto with my 2008 Prius Tspirit Hybrid (UK). Been driving it for over 10 years and I can't find another vehicle remotely as reliable or trouble free as this vehicle - though the 5th Gen Prius PHEV is looking like the logical replacement for my existing car. No matter what anyone thinks, I've had the last laugh - saved literally thousands of pounds in fuel bills over the last 10 years and my 2nd Gen Prius (doubtlessly over-engineered back in the day) has been astoundingly trouble free at 155k miles so far - and it's my daily commuter. Still on the original drivetrain too, including the original traction battery.

I like the cockpit on the late model Prius. The gauges are to be viewed above the steering wheel, not in the middle or below. It's so simple, give me a break! I hate that large glass roof though. I don't like being forced to buy something that I don't want or need. It's actually not efficient, because it's heavier than the steel roof without the glass. So NO GLASS PLEASE on any model! I love the new Prius, except for that stupid glass roof on the Limited version. The new Prius is actually quite quick, faster than the Civic Si from 0-60 mph. Cool, but not needed. It goes get really great fuel mileage, a bit better than before. So, it is the perfect compact car and 100% reliable, because these are made in Japan. This is not the poor reliability vehicle from Toyota like the Tacoma or Tundra. The young man said that he was embarrassed being seen in the previous model Prius. I don't know what he would be embarrassed about. Penis envy? Perhaps.

Our 2024 Prime does not have the wireless phone charger. But, I do know that the cars that are equipped with the feature will not charge all mobile phones. It's not a fault with the charger, it's because some phones just are not compatible with the system. Also, if the phone has a case, that may prevent the charge from getting to the phone. With careful driving (and no electrical loads, i.e. heat/heated seats etc.), we can get over 80Km on a charge. We've had the car for two months and put 1,750+ Km on it so far. And, a third of the dealer fill-up is still in the tank. Gas here costs far more than hydro, actually, 2/3's more. With our daily driving we figure we'll save $ 1,600+ a year in fuel costs.

Toyota's new 5th generation Prius has undergone a major change in appearance, making it even cooler. It looks like a coupe-style sedan. Because the front pillars are large, the top of the instrument panel is deeper than the previous model, making it difficult to see the bonnet and the tip of the body. The rear seats feel a little cramped due to the low seating position. Power performance has been significantly improved compared to the previous model. The hybrid system is now in its fifth generation and has improved driving force in the practical rotation range. Improved power performance makes it easier to drive, and fuel efficiency has also improved. Good news (prediction) has arrived. A derivative model of the current Prius is scheduled to be released. The car name in Japan is "Prius α". A station wagon-like minivan (overall height 1,545mm). It is slightly larger than a sedan except for its overall width, offering good visibility and ease of driving.The rear seats are spacious, and three-row seating is available.The rear has power sliding doors on both sides. The powertrain is a 2-liter hybrid and a 1.8-liter hybrid. It appears that a 1.8-liter hybrid will be available for the first time for the general public. The 1.8 liter has less power than the 2 liter at 140 HP, but the fuel efficiency is excellent and seems to exceed 70 MPG. I will report further information as soon as I catch it.

Here in uk don’t think is any good plug in hybrid as cost over £4 for charge it and just for 40 miles no much savings maybe good for some country if cheap electric and also two batteries one hybrid and one for plug in which very expensive if you need after warranty I will wait for Corolla saloon if coming out I think much better than plug in as i said you don’t save much and hassle to charge it every night as I working taxi driver

Non commercial drivers / owners will love it. This particular 5th Gen Prius has not been designed as an Uber Minicab duty vehicle, hence the near Ferrari looks. The Corolla has taken over the duties of general Uber Taxi Cab in the UK. This is also great as a plug-in in the UK - but it's designed primarily to be charged overnight at home - especially with its slow 3.3kW/h CSS charging capability. That's 3.5 hours for a full charge from empty. You'll ideally charge this on a lower overnight home tariff where it will cost as little as 9p per kW/h - from empty, you'd be looking at a little over £1.00 at most - not £4.00 per charge - unless you're using a public charger - and they tend to be very expensive and not good value for money in the UK. In my opinion, £1.00 for 30 miles (winter) to 50 (summer) miles for your commute is an unbelievable bargain. That's about £5.00 or probably less per week commuting costs (assuming you CAN get to work and back with one charge (mine is a daily 34 mile round trip commute). With home charging, that's about £20.00 per month charging costs (exclusively for commuting that is). I presently buy premium fuel for my ancient 2008 Prius every 21 days to fill the 45 litre tank - last bill was £70.00. That would be £15.00 for the three weeks commuting in the 5th Gen Prius PHEV (a.k.a. Prime) using a suitable home charging overnight tariff. I'd be saving about £50.00 every month in fuel costs in the UK by charging it every night.

@@datathunderstorm I don’t know maybe you have 70% off for electric mine will be £4 for charging and don’t have less tariffs for night I pay 41 pence per kWh so will be 13.5x41=over £5 no way you save any money over hybrid car and no hassle for charging it and you don’t know if electricity go up again so no for me if it was £25000 maybe but not £40000 no way

Yes, irregardless is recognized by many dictionaries as a real word. And although recent online discourse may make it appear that this word is a new development, it's not. In fact, it was added to Merriam-Webster's unabridged edition back in 1934, and it has been in use for centuries.

The absolutely worst thing about this vehicle is the terrible sound it makes when in EV mode at low speeds. It's the worst pedestrian warning system I've ever heard. My Sportage sounds like something out of a science fiction movie. This thing gives a mind-bogglingly bad mechanical grindy whirring sound. Like wtf Toyota. And no video I've seen even mentions it.

I liked the range of the batteries of the Pry-us Pry-me I would never pay for more battery. They need to get the price down on these coz without the rebates they make no sense. The instrument cluster is indeed cringe on the new cars. Yikes. What was Toyota thinking? The real deal-killer tho' is no CD player the Subaru has it this doesn't so will be switching to a gasoline-based Subaru this coming year. Too bad... Toyota had it totally nailed down with the old Prime they should have stuck with it.

It's called technological evolution. Even though my 2008 Prius Tspirit (UK) has a 6 CD changer, I already have ALL my music in digital format, so I can listen to it on my iPhone or use an old iPhone 5S as an iPod connected to the Prius via an auxiliary audio cable. Shame I cannot integrate Apple Car Play into my ancient 2nd Gen Prius - and yes, I'm over 60 years old by the way.

Toyota did that on purpose. Even the AC charging is limited to 3.3kW/h max. Very wise move. That plug-in traction battery is going to easily last the lifetime of the car. Why do I say that? Toyota do great BMS technology for their vehicle's hybrid traction batteries. This easily explains why my ancient 2008 Prius is still going strong at 155k miles with the original traction battery which is showing negligible degradation after 15 years of continuous use....!!! (Tested by Toyota December 2023). The plug-in model is designed ideally to be charged overnight in your home garage - preferably on a cheaper overnight tariff for the greatest savings.
