Great to drive by the gas stations. Plenty of zip to go over mountain passes in Colorado.

Replaced my 2001 Honda Odyssey which had 285K on it (an excellent vehicle). My '08 Prius is an excellent town, town/country vehicle. I'd give if 5 stars but the nav system is rather old looking, but still accurate and quite useable. Replacement parts are $$$ for many items. Update May 2021: put new tires on and it has made a major difference in the ride quality. I can't give a rave review to the Prius long range highway performance, though the tires will make a difference. The tiny 4 cylinder engine really works hard to maintain 65-70 mph, let alone quick passing demands. It is not a good mountain vehicle regardless of a decent highway. That said, as long as there's less than a foot of snow, it'll get you there. May 2023... no changes.

At 44 mpg and low costs of maintenance over the years I would highly recommend this car for local, daily use. Good for kid seats in second row (2) and still have cargo area in back. We are selling our Prius only because it fits only two child car seats with the integrated tie-down system. Need more space!

Great car but check for working HID lights if so equipped. Have had trouble with them

Comfortable car which performs well. Repair costs were minimal, and fuel economy is great. interior is roomier than you would expect. Prior car was a 2008 Prius. Sold with 183,000. Had no issues but routine maintenance. Newer 2014 version is following suit, but has a larger engine and gets slightly worse gas mileage
