Car is brand new but so far so great. Have owned a Prius C, a Matrix and a VW Golf and this is luxurious by comparison. MPG 54 on average in first 2000 mostly highway driving.

Can't imagine having a different vehicle. This is my 2nd consecutive Prius. I am more than happy. Very impressed with the new design. Sexy, fast and environmentally friendly!

Prius Has Pluses and Minuses

Look no further if you want a car with excellent gas mileage and reliability. Average 55mpg on the highway! Toyota has done a great job on the seamless transition between the gasoline engine and battery power. Assembly quality is very good. Now for the not so good. The windshield on this car is a rock magnet. Have had more windshield rock strikes in 3 months than in years with other cars. Plan on replacing the windshield, if you drive a fair amount on the highway. Dealer was unable to fix a recurring clunk in the trunk experienced when driving over uneven pavement separations on the highway. This is not typical for a Toyota. The 2016 Prius sits lower than the previous generation. You will tire of climbing out of the car after awhile. Navigation system is not easily accessible and quite frankly mediocre. The small sun visors are totally useless when pivoted to the side window in an attempt to block the sun. No spare tire. Lastly, the resale value is poor. The money saved on gas will be lost and then some, unless you keep the car for 10 years. Update on 3/8/17 - traded the Prius on a Subaru. Not good value for the money paid. Couldn't take the unresolved clunk in the trunk any longer. Way too small sun visors are a big problem when commuting at sunrise and sunset.

Still loving my 2016 Prius

As my Prius approaches the age of eight years, I am still happy with it. It now has 47,000+ miles! The gas mileage is still 50+ mpg. It has had no problems. Dealership maintenance is still reliable. It is still peppy of the mark, comfortable. I enjoy the slide open sunroof, which unfortunately is not available on new models. (One offers a glass roof that does not open, but why not?) Recall that I bought a Prius four, to which aftermarket options were added by my exceptional dealership. When the LED running lights became available, they were installed. Since the 17" wheels were not available for the Prius Four the 17" wheels from my very special 2012 Prius were transferred to the new car, much to the dismay of my son who inherited the 2012 with the 2016 wheels. (I am now thinking about getting new wheels, given the damage cause by cutting corners too closely.) The struts and shocks were replaced with stiffer ones by the dealer, giving the car much better handling and ride. The console "appliqué" was installed. Sadly, the steering wheel accent remains, which after eight years I've gotten used to. The navigation system remains wonky, worse after my running over a curb and damaging the underside of the car. This is my fourth Prius (1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gens over 24 years). The 3rd gen is still my favorite, basically because I got everything I wanted on the car (sun roof, plus package, ground effects, etc.) My millennial son still drives this car. He loves it! The 2012 Prius is still a better looking car (even with the 2016's wheels). The sunroof design is much sleeker than the mere "hole in the roof" on the 2016. (And! it has the solar cells built into the roof that power the exhaust fan in the summer...no hot car.) Overall, the 2012, which has more than 100,000 miles, was 5 Stars for me, and still is for my son. The 2016 is a still strong 4 stars.

But so far, loving this car! This is my 3rd Prius and will probably be my favorite - WAY prettier, and so far averaging 57 mpg!
