I love priuses. I love seeing them on the road. I still think it one of the ugliest cars on the market. The honda insight is very similar looking but its not quite as ugly. from the front the insight looks almost like any other honda.

Four wonderful years with the Toyota Prius GII. Traded it in on the GIII. Toyota makes good cars. And, hello, I love the Prius.

If it’s under 30k..they’ve already won. The model S may look nice and be fully electric as well, but at just under 50k, they’ve already lost the attention of a lot of people.

I’d rather wait for the Tesla Model S. Modifying the Prius to the plug-in it should be would be as expensive and still less efficient.

yeah they do tend to get bias about cars they dislike but i did some research and they were telling the truth about the amount of oil used in transportation and plus don’t forget about the environmental damage all batteries have but then again that can be said for all hybrids so I guess that one doesn’t count

its true that a diesel can produce as much mpg as a prius..but its not all about mpg… things like emissions and other stuff as well… also, i love top gear. i think its a great show but sometimes i hate how BIAS they are. if they dont like a certain car. they really make them look bad. even tho it has nothing to do with the car.(Example, american cars for the most part) it might be true and it might not that it took parts from al over the world to make the car but so does everycar out there.

you are 100% right no doubt about it the prius would win but the main reason I am against prius is because of the massive amount of oil they use just to transport the parts which adds up to a below average mpg I personally believe that you are better of buying a small European diesel car that would get very close to the mpg that a prius gets

thats true but i think that test was very bias…ive seen that test and i agree that they spent about the same amount of gas driving around the track but do some more of a real world test. such as give them 5 gallons of gas and put them in L.A. traffic and see which one goes the furtest…that would be more realistic.

To add some more (this is from Top Gear) they did a track test with a BMW M3 and a prius. The prius would drive around the track as fast as it could while the M3 just had to keep up the result the M3 got a rating of about 5mpg MORE then the prius because it’s not the car that matters most but your driving style. The M3 has a 400hp engine and so doesn’t need to rev up that much to keep up with the prius. You wanna save the planet buy a manual car and buy anything but a prius it’s a scam FACT

Hi there ppl I am obsessed with cars and would like to share some FACTS about the “lovely” prius. As you all know the prius is extremely cheap for a hybrid ever wonder why? well to make it cheap toyota buys the parts from all over the world (they even admit this in their old commercials) downside though is that it takes a lot of oil to transport the parts and that means that a prius spends as much oil in its expected life time as an SUV don’t believe me do some research before you thumb me down

GM needs to make a car exactly like the Prius with similar or better MPG/specifications and the exact competitive price.

There are so many idiots complaining about the battery.
Even most hydrogen cars will still use the BATTERY and its tech.
Hybrid Car-Battery packs are recycled.

Yes. I think a 4 door sedan looks better than a hatchback with an ass tumor.
September 28th, 2011 at 3:31 am
thats true
September 28th, 2011 at 3:48 am
