First hybrid...but not the last

Dyed in the wool car guy who never imagined owning a hybrid. I just couldn’t bring myself to warm up to the Prius. I saw the new Corolla Hybrid and test drove it to see how it compared to the Insight. The Corolla was not as fast as the Insight but was very smooth in everything it did. I have had it about a week and am averaging about 65 mpg. Yes, 65 mpg. To say I am blown away by what this car does and how smooth it is would be an understatement. Very happy thus far.

We've had our Corolla Hybrid for a month and a half and love it. I like the new style especially the interior. But what's most impressive is the overall gas mileage of 55 mph!! Also the ride is very smooth and quiet. The pickup is adequate but if you switch the driving mode from normal to power mode, it will give you much more acceleration especially on the freeway. My only complaint is I wish the hybrid would be available in the upper trims.

I've bought 2 Prius's. Still drive one daily. This car is much smoother, you can't tell when the gas engine starts. It cost less and gets 62 MPG. Great get to work and kid hauler. 700 miles to a $30 tank.

First hybrid

Amazing car,averaging 62 mpg,smooth quiet ride you can barely hear the engine, good acceleration on power mode, gas saver on eco mode. The radar cruise control with lane assist makes long drives so much easier. The transmission is smooth, quiet and responsive gear change is unnoticeable.The weight distribution on winding roads is adequate but needs improvement. Perfect daily commute car.

Very comfortable

Reviewed the Insight, Ioniq and Prius before purchasing the Corolla Hybrid with the upgraded and heated seats, BSM etc. Most comfortable ride and least road noise of the four. Upgrade definitely worth the extra $s. Good size trunk. Fuel economy averages about 4.4L per 100 km rover 4000km of city and highway driving. Very happy with this vehicle.
