Great 1st Hybrid

This is my first hybrid car and I would have to say I'm impressed. The car gets great gas mileage, but the gas engine gives it a little kick so the acceleration doesn't feel that lazy. Not to mention it has all the tech features including a large display, blue tooth, and keyless lock/unlock and start. And it's quiet! You can hardly tell when the gas engine kicks on giving a smooth and comfortable ride. Once again, great 1st hybrid!

I liked the Prius hybrid concept, but found the style beyond what I could tolerate. So when the Corolla Hybrid was released, that barrier was removed, and I bought one. I was surprised at how quiet it was on the freeway, far lower wind noise than I expected. Gas mileage is as expected, excellent. Handling is very good as well. Overall feels very solid. It does get a bit buzzy when called upon to accelerate hard or go up steep hills quickly, but you can't expect otherwise for this kind of vehicle, and it is only occasionally that the engine becomes obvious. Transitions in electric/gas acceleration and regen/friction braking are very smooth. I only give a 4-star rating for two annoyances. One: no spare, jack, or lugwrench; just a bottle of goo and a pump to repair minor punctures. I'm not comfortable with that, so it cost ~$300 to get a full-size spare and related tools (aftermarket). Fortunately, there is enough room in the trunk well for a full-size spare. Two: the rocker panel (the plastic trim just below the doors on the outside) is apparently designed for looks, but causes minor issues. It sticks out an inch or so beyond the door line, making it look low and racy I guess... but then entry and exit is slightly more difficult. In addition, the sadistic designer made it relatively pointy, and it can be a real ankle-banger if you're not careful. At the moment, due to some strange glitch, I'm still unable to register for the Toyota Owner's group, where you can do a few things online... but that has nothing directly to do with the car itself, so I didn't de-rate it further. Overall, I'm very pleased with the car, and would probably give it 4.5 stars if I could do that.

Just got this car a few days ago. I'm getting 52 miles per gallon so far, which is amazing. I'm sure it will improve some. On the highway you can cruise comfortably in the fast lane and the engine doesn't seem to struggle at all. The car is quiet and you don't feel the wind blowing you around on the highway. The car handles better than our 2009 corolla and just seems a lot smoother. I'm hoping to keep this car for a long time. I have always had cars with the standard music system and the speakers on this car are the best I've had.

I have the same complaints as others: Only one trim level, passenger seat is low and can't be raised, no spare tire. I can easily overlook these things since the car is getting me over 63 MPG in city driving. It's quiet,refined, and feels well built. So far I am happy with the purchase and surprised at the MPG's
