This is an easy car to own which is why I still own it! 45-51 mpg; park it anywhere, eco monitor helps keep speed down and gas mileage up; great storage for shopping; very sweet style and color; and it is reliable in any weather! Only issue is that Toyota has never (in 17 years of driving Toyotas) made a good rear windshield wiper!) Thank goodness for great defrosters🤗

Economically Unbeatable

Keeping in mind this is not a luxury vehicle, it is an affordable ride that's easy to drive. Easy to park and excellent mileage (50+ in the city) it was easy on the wallet. We have loved this car with its low maintenance and spunky style. We are currently struggling with trading it up for a larger car with more trunk space. However, we keep coming back to how much we love our Prius C and hate to give it up.

Work car turned main car.

I admit, I bought this to go to and from work. I wasn't expecting a whole lot from it. Man, has this car surprised me. 1. Cheap to own and operate. My partner wants us go everywhere in the car. 2. It always seems to have the right amount of room. Fold seats down and there is a ton of room. We did several airport trips with 3 full sized bags and carryon. 3. Once up to speed, the car will sail at 75-80 with very little effort. 48 mpg highway is easily achievable. 4. Parallel parking in SF is awesome. I found two spots in one day that my other car would never fit in. 5. 300 mile trip to LA was flawless. I set cruise for 65 up the Grapevine. No issues. She never slowed down from that speed. 6. My only gripe are the roofing strips came off in the car wash. I just removed them and it's OK without them. Overall, the car does its job very well.

It’s so sporty and I love all of the features like the backup camera and hands free technology. I upgraded from a 2010 Yaris, so this is def much nicer and the gas mileage is great! Def happy with my purchase!
