No complaints. Little Love.

Date of Review:  Jun 4, 2007
The Bottom Line: This is the best option for a mass produced car for a young family with a combination of space, quality and economy. But no soul.
Review: We traded a Mini for this and it has been good.

Our mileage has been roughly 47 mpg with a high of about 56 on a tank and a low of about 42. The effect of that is that we don't care what gas prices are, which is nice.

The first 5...

Customer Satisfaction 95% - I am surprised it is not higher

Date of Review:  Oct 4, 2006
Review: My wife and I waited 3 months for our loaded red Prius #8 Option. It was well worth the wait. We love everything about it, except that only one of us can drive it at a time. We also love the Navigation system. It has some gaps in coverage, but we...

Not the most exciting car but great nonetheless -- updated 5/2007

Date of Review:  Nov 22, 2006
The Bottom Line: Tax credit. Gas mileage. Resale value. Just buy one.
Review: Update 5/2007

If you are getting a hybrid for the tax break, beware. Although we should have received $3150, due to other tax credits, we only got about $1600. I have found that people with kids or education credits usually do not get the...

Perfect for Kauai

Date of Review:  Feb 5, 2007
Review: My 2006 Prius is perfect for the island of Kauai where I live. Rural setting, warm weather, sometimes crowded 2 lane roads - all are manageable in the Prius. Best yet, it is helping to educate my teenagers about alternative driving styles and lets...

Great car but beware of a couple things

Date of Review:  Jan 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: Some adjustments to make, but BUY IT!
Review: I purchased this car after owning 3 consecutive Camrys because I thought it was a prudent thing to do AND I didn't really have to compromise on what I wanted in a car. That being, the driving experience, comfort and affordable. I am NOT the status...

Smart key is not a plus

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2006
Review: They don't disclose the outrageous cost to replace a lost smart key. I just paid over $420 for mine - that
$278 for the smart key replacement, and another $144 for the dealer to program it. Dealer has you by the balls - charging an hours labor...

2006 Prius Technical Review

Date of Review:  Nov 27, 2006
The Bottom Line: I would buy this car again, we are very happy with it and now drive alot more since we don't have to spend too much on gas.
Review: I have 16,000 miles on my 06 Prius, and love it. I almost bought a Honda Civic Hybrid, but after a 2 months of research, decided to get the Prius. I will explain some differences and why I chose the Prius. The technical part will come later.

totally worth it

Date of Review:  Dec 11, 2006
Review: I have a 2005 Prius and waited 9 months for it. It is everything they promised: a solid car that handles well and gets great mileage. I get 60 mpg in the summer when I drive on the highway; 50-55 city driving. It does substantially worse in the...

My Blue Baby

Date of Review:  Nov 12, 2009
The Bottom Line: This car I would recommend. Toyota makes a great product and the Prius is one of them. Toyota products have never let me down.
Review: I bought my 2006 Toyota Prius used. The car had 19,000 miles on it when I bought it. I would have to say this is one of the best cars I have owned except for my Toyota Scion. When I can get the very best value on the road, I know I do not need to...
