carwow do a review on a BMW m140i
Great review, thank you!
Can you please do a car review about the 2020 corolla hybrid please and thanks !
Mat you reviewed this car 9 years ago on car buyers
It's a car made for people who could not give less shits about cars and what they are driving, as long as it is practical, economic and reliable. The Prius jokes are fun, but just being straight up hateful and negative towards a car that is not even made for car people is just pathetic.
Da Mighty Horse Well said. Although the Prius jokes do get tiring
Agreed even though there's still a decent car scene for the Prius in Japan
Pretty much this. Have folks forgotten that some people, 'ya know, don't care about cars or driving?
There are plenty of people out there who dislike driving and have little to no interest in cars whatsoever. There's nothing wrong with that. But some folks here talk about it as if it's some sort of *sin* to not be a car enthusiast.
That's the equivalent of a foodie constantly calling you out for eating a mere PB&J sandwich or Mac&Cheese for lunch. Or an audiophile giving you crap for not listening to lossless codecs. Or a techie making fun of you for not knowing how to build your own machine instead of paying for a pre-built one.
Not everyone shares your hobbies. People need to get over it. I *love* cars and driving. Would I buy a Prius? Maybe if it was cheaper, since it seems to be an excellent commuter car. But there are plenty of others in the market who would *love* a Prius.
Fucking hero, I love driving no matter what, and imagine driving doing 86 fuking mpg!! So cheap to be happy driving its a blessing
theconformist Perfect explanation, you should make your own video saying that. Might knock some sense into the ignorant “enthusiasts”
My current 2017 Prius has a top end of 115 MPH. My 300 HP V-6 Mustang computer shuts off the gas to the motor at 107 MPH. Yep, My Prius is faster than my Mustang.
ok i admit that the prius is better than the mustang.
@Jak Mart its a v6 of course its slow
Chuck D I bought my 2017 Prius used. It is a great car. I am not bothered by criticism. All cars at some stage break down. There are cars that are money pits, once the mileage is over 100 000. I know of a Prius that has done over 250 000 and is still running.
@@thabonnena294 it is a toyota after all. and yes, cars do break down. don't get me wrong, i don't hate the idea behind the prius - only the design of it.
@@raqeebahmed1452 and that prius is I4
I used to swear by German car brands until I drove Prius for month . Changed my whole outlook towards car . Reliability , comfort , efficient . You wouldn’t believe it until you buy one . It grows on you .. unbelievable engineered machine
Dear the lead designer of Toyota, I hereby apologise for calling your cars as bland and boring. Please forgive my mistakes and stop torturing my eye with your newer models, I have learned my lesson.
Hehe boiiii
Same can be said about your face too then .... Just saying 🤪😜
Raprada YEET
Tu és um ignorante
You a real one for being with Carlow for this long
Thinking of buying one just to piss off some "car enthusiast". A real car guy appreciates all cars. Jokes are fine, but hating on this car is ridiculous.
Dont mind me, I'd love trolling in this car
Lord Asclepius ask these "enthusiasts" about what their favourite car is and 9 out of 10 times, they'd say either lamborghini or a ferrari lol. Never mind the model.
I don't hate people who have one, I just will never get one.
Yeah but it's looks kinda ugly
Zarak Durrani The only people you’ve asked questions must be about 12
Toyota made an extra effort to make Prius as hideous as possible.
rabit818 Yea I don't understand why Toyota decides to take a regular car and stick the Pontiac Aztecs rear end on it...
I really can't understand how people find this car ugly, I think it looks fucking cool! Much rather had a guy pick me up in a Prius, than in a pretentious Audi or Mercedes :D
😂😂😂
why is that? it looks pretty functional to me
rabit818 fuck how it looks, being superficial can costs you a lot of money that you probably don't even have!!!
I want a Prius but my father will laugh at me. He got a GTR... i'm more about that fuel economy.
You should laugh at his fuel economy
A father with a gtr? What a fucking dick... thats a 18 to 23 y-o car
The prius is better
The gtr is better
Every car has its benefits
Gtr has 500hp
But prius has fuel economy
All cars are good
I
You can actually get a Lexus if it's all about fuel economy
I never imagined owning a Prius, but after my wife just had to have it - we love it! The best and most reliable car (other than Saab) we ever had! Literally unbreakable. Silly simple, drives like a dream, fits the kids in the back and leaves enough space for extensive shopping. Actually, I'm looking for a second one to replace my car!
What kind of mpg do you get?. I am averaging 61
@@akubel33t - ours does around 55mpg, but in our country we drive outside settlements at 65mph, rising to 90mph on highways.
@@lovingtanja ah alright, 90 mph! Braver than I am 🙈
@@akubel33t - the Prius does 121mph (195kph) until limited. And still drives very nice and safely at that speed. Go for it!
@@lovingtanjaseems tested😂
86 miles per gallon?!?
There’s a reason this car, is minicab and Uber drivers (number 1) choice for work.
Alright.....I get it now 😃
chello70 very true, genius.
Why everyone hating the Prius! Not everyone wants an expensive to buy, expensive to repair car, when you just drive to work, home and simple places! 🙄
Yea? Wait until the hybrid system goes wrong out of warranty, or the batteries need replacing :P
Buy a focus, a golf, a fiesta, a polo or a clio
It’s ugly and useless
JimmyTheSniper9 Plays i hate american cars
Blue eyed Racer like you
I don’t mind the old prius now.
Bright Ivan lool
I personally hate the first gen even more
The previous one didn't look that bad tbh.
The old one looks great compared to this
The old Prius looks like absolute garbage. Disgusting. I really don’t mind this one though.

I'd say the main reason people probably want a 12v socket in the boot is to power a dash cam stuck to the rear window.
ONhistoryplus its also practical when you're carrying a portable electric fridge with you on a long trip
Its actually really useful for me, I got a dog and in days when its very warm outside he got a small fan attached to his cage which is power by that 12v socket.
ErikC17 LOL? I thought I'm the only one who does that
Lol in my prius 2017 on this place a 110V(1700W) socket. I bought my in Japan, Corolla
Well, people like me that buy used cars still need these videos several years down the line, so thanks Matt. This is still too expensive for me, so I got a gen 3. If Toyota had said it was a phenomenal automatic transmission with a car wrapped around it, I’d have bought it ten years earlier. The ‘droning’ under hard acceleration is actually exactly the same as a normal automatic except the rpm is constant and there’s no ‘peak’ to be reached. Once you realise what Toyota has done, is to simply make the petrol engine run at about: idle; 1/4 speed; 1/2 speed; 3/4 speed; full speed; you realise it’s because petrol engines are quite poor in terms of what they offer. 80% of the energy put in, comes out as heat, you only get 20% out as power to a shaft. Petrol engines, make great boilers.
The transmission has no cones, pulleys or friction faces to wear, the e-CVT is robust, not fragile and nothing like CVT at all, so it’s a misnomer really, in some ways. Doesn’t even have a ‘slush box’ or torque convertor ( sort of a liquid clutch) with its impellers. Much better. Never had an automatic that didn’t develop a fault by about 130,000 miles. This e-CVT only has an emergency clutch ‘in case’ and in normal use, there are only constantly-meshed gears. Keep changing the engine oil, every 7,000 miles max or less, keep changing the transmission fluid every 45,000 miles or less, and there isn’t too much to sweat about. This is the most reliable car probably, I ever bought. Sure, it still has to surpass my VW Passat auto 4-speed’s 193,000 miles, but that was a landmark era, before DPF’s strangled diesels.
This car might fail, but it’s designed and built not to, and every indication is it’s one of the best engineered cars in the world. Original transmission idea was in Berkeley University USA, then GM bought it, then sold the patent to Toyota. It is basically a differential, as far as I can see - the three inputs/outputs are the giveaway - Motor-Generator 1, MG2, and the petrol engine, interplay to provide the final driveshaft power and speed. It’s a marvel. Take care all.
My dad's gen 3 has done 280k miles and still running solid. Some major service items such as hybrid battery replacement, water pump and brake fluid pump.
Am i the only one who likes the design of prius, it looks futuristic
if the future is runned by demented turds, then yes it does looks futuristic
mathias martiney 🖐🏼
I like it too
I really like it and very surprised that most people hate it 😮
Car snobs, am i right!
If you guys hate this car so much why did you waste your precious time watching a review on it? Not that I like it particularly but still.
At least I don't pollute Matt's videos with uneccessary hate comments, that's my point. you get it? how about now?
Hux Because Matt does the review ;)
Hux You should not worry about pollution of the commentaar section, because the prius is so eco it will compensate for any pollution in the comments
Hux i hated it after the video. So what u gonna say about it?
Because I want to laugh
Am I the only one that actually likes the look of the Prius?
It’s grown on me, I even prefer it to the tamed 2019/20 facelift
Same. Love the design.
I love it too
Me gusta mucho
😂tu eres uniko los de más tanvien
People who complain about the Prius are losers. As if it was the only car in the world they could choose... It's much more reasonable to make constructive criticism than simply making fun of it for not looking and driving like a Mustang or whatever.
It's like getting all upset because they also serve healthy sandwiches at a restaurant, instead of only serving greasy burgers.
True, however the way they make the Prius actually hurts the environment, also sorry I'm a bit late haha.
no, no, no, i am criticising it because it's even uglier than the pontiac aztek
People who complain about priuses actually know a thing or two about car taste
@@BakedPotato-zw8uw Appearance is one thing, mechanics are another. Considering the appearance of most boring cars anyway, aesthetics is often not the main priority for most people. Often, reliability, cost, and efficiency are bigger factors than appearance and performance.
can we talk about how you held your poor Uber driver hostage just to make this video
It's okay, I left him a review. You should "consider" this driver.
Nice profile pic Tedrick Leong
I actually quite like the look, very relaxing to drive. Puts more expensive cars to shame especially for the refinement aspect
I've got one, test drive I really loved it, bought it and thought what you doing. I love it now, it's off the wall, dead comfortable to drive, excel has all the gizmos, faster than you think, handles better than you think.
Apart from it looking hideous, it is pretty impressive car.. 86mpg, big boot, nice space inside are all pros. If I wasn’t a car guy, I would go right ahead and buy one.
Sushil Choudhari wtf? I’m ‘a car guy’ and I own one. You people are so full of shit.
MakeMeYoursBitch is it your daily driver and you have a other fun car for the weekend? If not How can you be a Car guy?
aufdemtrip are you stupid or something? What does it have to do anything with being a car guy? Am I supposed to only like sports cars to be a ‘car guy’? FU all. That’s nonsense.
If my name was Mohammed, I'd buy one as well.
What's actually preventing you from getting one if I may ask?
Is it what people in the community think about it?
What the fuck is this
Vanessa Oelmann it's called shit
This car has autism
whats wrong?
bugz1591 your not a car guy
i really don't like the interior at all and the exterior hasn't been a huge development either, if it was an Audi everyone would call them out for being conservative and boring but as it is a Toyota everyone seems to be fine with it...
I love the Prius and its design! That’s one of the reasons I bought it. Rear lights look really nice at night. Just beautiful!
MakeMeYoursBitch you must be drunk
Así es amigo, con la mirada correcta, es hermoso, es una obra de ingeniería para la eficiencia de combustible.
2:53 *QUIRK*
Matt don’t do this to me. I can only handle one Doug.
Toyota prioritized the aero efficiency on this car but little did they think about that rear wiper at 1:26 causing a brick's drag.
I bet most of the dislikes will be from Car Throttle members.
definetly, yeah
Is that you Ethan?
Or maybe people with the gift of sight
Hahaha damn right!
I liked the video, and i am a car guy, but thats only because the video was good, not the car.
It's one if not the best for fuel economy and the environment. I'd have it in my garage next to my expensive cars as a reliable ride around the city or long distance.
Prius is just a car, no drama
My current 2017 Prius has a top end of 115 MPH. My 300 HP V-6 Mustang computer shuts off the gas to the motor at 107 MPH. Yep, My Prius is faster than my Mustang.
You said wha
@Daniel Bi why because everyone said so?
The Prius is incredibly practical and economical! The only issue is the exterior design
Get a silver one with black wheels
5 annoying things:
1) just look at it
2) It is a hybrid
3) It exist
4 this should be not toyota
5) People still buying this
The bar across the rear window is exactly the right position to cover following cars headlights. My gen 2 1.5 is a little more noisy but returns 62 mpg going to Cornwall from E Anglia. My Gen3 is much quieter (other than road noise) and will do 70mpg. Both have been "bullet proof" for reliabilty They just work. Gen 2 is 10.5yrs old and battery still top notch.
Interesting comment. I am considering a Gen 2/3 Prius, I will also be doing long trips all over the UK with it. Glad to hear you've had no problems.
We got our first snowstorm of the season this morning, and i had to choose either the '99 RAV4 AWD or the 2013 PlugInPrius to make the 35 mile round trip into town and back. Road were slick, snow covered with ice under. With dedicated winter tires (Michelin IceX) traction wasn't a problem. On the drive, several single occupant full sized 4x4 pickups roared by me on the interstate, and I'm sure their drivers thought "THIS is the reason I drive a pickup truck, poor Prius driver!" I also had a 1 ton Silverado 4x4 I could have drove, 15 mpg. The RAV4 gets 25-27 mpg, the Prius got 64 mpg on the trip. Leaving several dollars in my pocket over the 1 ton, that's why i drive it. I feel like a dumb ass, not macho, driving a 1 ton flatbed just to haul my skinny ass down the road, (it only comes out of the shop to WORK, not serve as personal transportation) the Prius makes me feel like I'm getting the most bang for my driving buck.
Why do people, hate this car. It’s PRACTICALLY is so good, remember, not all are rich infactm all the people in youtube comments are usually poor
7:26 - "why are we not worthy"
The hate that Toyota and prius gets is just classist and pathetic. Car enthusiasts forget that NOT EVERYONE IS A CAR ENTHUSIAST.
Some of us just want a car that is RELIABLE, will last forever with minimal maintenance besides the basics, isn't a gas guzzler is economic on our wallet and in the environment
Like if you hate the prius don't get one then?? If you want a fancy car that can go 0 to 100 mph or can be modified and has all sorts of cool shit then get a different car?? Like sorry the prius isn't up to your sports car or trucks standards lmao but it's not a sports car or a truck. It's a prius
Anyways I love them and I can't wait to get rid of my kia in a year or so and get a prius

NANI WHY NO FUDGE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!???
I think this prius looks beautiful. Don;t know why people think it looks ugly.
Mat needs a crash course on Toyota HSD. It has 2 motors. Not a belt CVT, and it is seamless because most of the time it is driven by one of the motors while the engine makes electricity via the other motor.
I love it. It’s amazing, the perfect drivers car. As a car enthusiast I really want this car
David Micevski no car enthusiast likes a Prius they get real cars!
@@blueeyedracer4990 Damn, it seems like most car enthusiasts are so insecure. Good thing I'm not into cars anymore
see? You stink more than his gym teacher
@@blueeyedracer4990 You're so insecure its pitiful.
The Prius is an engineering marvel. I ride a BMW motorcycle for fun. I loved my Mini Cooper for the handling. I like my Ranger for hauling. And I love my Mazda5 stick shift cause it's the only minivan you can get with a stick shift.
But my 06 Prius is probably the best car I ever had. First maintenance (other than oil, tires, and some tail light bulbs), was at 182 thousand miles! That's right. At 182K, I finally spent $220. For front brake pads, and had the serpentine belt replaced.
That, while enjoying the savings of 50 mpg.
It's not the zero to sixty that is impressive, or the feel of the manual transmission, or the sound of a V8. It's the beauty of well engineered reliability and fuel economy. And I get enthusiastic about that. My motorcycle is more fun, but burns more gas than my car!
The reason why Toyota uses NiMH batteries in certain markets is because of colder temperatures.
Hey, E class driver here.
I'm not sure if the U.K. Just got this car or what, but we've had those for a pretty long time now, and I got to rent and drive one for a couple of days, gotta say, I'm surprised!
It's shockingly ugly (though not anywhere nearly as bad with the larger wheels) and everyone just kinda hates Priuses, and I understand why it's so easy to do exactly that.
But it's actually quite a charming, pleasant car to drive. It's probably the best econobox I can think of all around. It's VERY easy to drive, it's quiet, comfortable, not huge but spacious enough for most situations - the perfect size for a city car, it's got a surprisingly punchy engine and it's STUPIDLY fuel efficient.
I'd definitely rather pay a little extra and have a Prius than something like a Focus, a Corolla, a Mazda 3 or a Civic (which is a car I wouldn't consider any prettier than the Prius).
With those cars, I don't think it REALLY matters what it looks like in the first place, you're not fooling anyone either way, everyone knows you're driving a cheap, compact econobox.
Edit: I had no idea it had heated seats, that button's position.... ugh
Jesus Christ most people who hate don't get it like you do.
Since you got an e class, next time try the lexus gs450h. Should be good.
TsLeng Ugh, that's a sore spot for me, I REALLY like the GS, there's something about it that just feels right, I definitely prefer the interior over the one in the E Class, but objectively speaking it just doesn't ride and handle quite as well as the E Class, it's RWD only, and it doesn't come as a wagon.
Jesus Christ apparently the GS350 (also has AWD!) which is not sold in the UK handles very well. At least according to USA based motor journos. But then , half of what motor journos say is probably shite anyway so I dunno.
TsLeng yeah, but AWD isn't a deal breaker for me as it's mostly just rainy where I live, but I'd rather have it than not, and it sucks that you can't get it on the the top spec model unless it's the F sport, which I didn't want (comfort is a higher priority for me, as I do A LOT of highway/city driving and I just need something to make it all a bit easier).
And yeah, the GS handles really well! It's rock solid on the road, but so is the E Class. Neither of them is a barge, but if there's one thing the E Class absolutely aces, it's ride comfort. What people say about it gliding over bumps is 100% true, it's "what the fuck" level of comfortable with the optional air suspension. It's just something the GS doesn't do.
Also, the Burmaster sound system!!!!!! Holy shit, it's great! Why don't car journalists EVER talk about that?! It's significantly better than the Mark Levinson one in the GS.
What ultimately was a deal breaker for me though, is that it doesn't come as a station wagon. I needed a car that can carry a lot of shit and thought about getting some kind of an SUV at first, but figured that a station wagon would be enough.
Jesus Christ it's a shame of the AWD GS can only be had on the F Sport. Not everyone wants to race around at max G force lol.
And no wagon which is a shame.
I' am totaly happy with the car. Before I had a Audi A4 diesel power from 2008. It is very cool to drive electric with the prius, and I like very much the fact it produce less polution than all other cars (except 100% electric cars). So many people dies every day because air polution... but it seems that no one thinks about it, most people want spotive cars or big fat SUV Trucks... First spotive cars cost you double the price for maybe some minutes you are faster... And think about it driving faster is more risky... Than many people think SUV is much saver that is not true they are only about 20% heavier but they have less street control than sedans... And when everybody would drive heavy cars it would be even more dangerous on streets... Spotive cars and SUV for city that's the stupity of humanity... Prius is the best car for humanity !
That car is so good you can feel it.
I love Toyota Prius
The next Fiat Multipla?
Leonardus Giovanno yeah
The multipla looks like a ferarri f40 compared to this.... thing.
Leonardus Giovanno Not that hideous shit-box!
Leonardus Giovanno don't insult the multipla. At least that was a decent (honest) car that could fit 6 in.
And was that ugly, it was sort of decent looking.
A bigger set of wheels with LP tyres, would help this out somewhat.
Leonardus Giovanno 😂😂👍🏻
I never understand why people hate on it so much. It's a really reliable, comfortable, relaxed, economical way to transport people. It's not fast, stylish or whatever but it isn't meant to be - that's not it's job. About a bazillion minicab and Uber drivers know this.
It may not be right for you - but doesn't make it bad, and probably it's perfect for someone else.
In the first place, the car isn't even meant to cater for those haters. It's is meant for efficiency, not performance.
LOVE YOUR REVIEWS, thanks
do more reviews on KIA, HYUNDAI, TOYOTA
Tengo un 2018 y estoy encantado con el, yo lo defino no como un auto, sino como un objeto de transporte del punto A al punto B y me parece maravilloso.
Lee Pei Ching is fine but he is confirmed
I ABSOLUTELY love the Prius.
The Prius should be applauded for its technology. Any other machine people want efficiency and Prius is amazing with gas. Getting 50-70 mpg doesn't get old.
At first, when he called the Uber and the car came, I was looking for a driver and didn't find any. And then I remembered it was the UK
The Prius is a perfect car for a family of four people who need a practical car that is economical, easy to drive and is cheap in maintenance and fuel. Whilst it's hideous, the 2019 Prius (the one now sold in Australia) looks a little bit better, it is still a good car for those who don't really care that much about what they drive.
I like my ‘12 Prius V better 😂. Travelled 1000kms for $25 AUD of fuel 🤔
If you squint enough , you can see the last generation Celica in there....I rather the old Celicas design tbh
There are more pleasant things in life then driving this car, like getting tuberculosis or get hit by the car.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mark i dont like it and i wouldnt like to own one but tell why do u hate it so much? tell me 3 good reasons?
Andrej Kostovski
- everyone hates it so (when one sheep goes away from its group all the others go after it, and this guy is one of those)
- it is not the worst or ugliest car ever
- but its owner community of fake ecology people is cancer
KRISTIJAN 5112003 yes you are right.. if you wanna something economical with a decent boot and space in the cabin its allright..and its not that ugly its a huge step up from the old prius
the only decent pone is the prius v
Imagine driving the Prius as the Uber driver, and then your pick up starts opening up your trunk and taking out everything and putting everything back in while talking about the different functionalities of your car.
I actually like the Prius
It's ugle it's dumb over in world
Despite the horrible gear selector and gauge cluster, its a quite nice car!
I was impressed with how much head room there was when I got into a toyota pruis and a peugeot when I got an uber for my first time
It's one amazing car!
I wish I could have the money to buy it.. 💵💵💵
Hey Mat, you're not supposed to use the parking brake with your hand. Try it with your foot and trust me, it is very easy :)
I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, BUT are they trying to make it look like shit ???
Theodore Vasilopoulos yes they are, so pretentious little fucks can stand out from the crowd
that statement dosent apply to the prius
And that’s why my friend bought a Prius C.
It has to look like a shed so they can hide all the hybrid gear away under the floor. That's why the headroom in the back is so poor for such a large car.
I don’t see why everyone hates this car, it looks good (better than the old Prius) it drives good, it’s good for the environment, and it’s just a car that people waste their time on hating. Overall it gets the job done and it doesn’t deserve all the hate it gets
I don't really find this car ugly, I think it's modern and futuristic and I kind of like it.
Why everyone mentions looks as a negative? I was attracted to this car due to looks. It is beautiful car.
Those who can't afford this car, they will say bad stuff about the car 🤞
I'm watching a prius review...... I think I'm old now..... idk when it happened but here I am....
I'm 17 and i feel old
Dream car, I wish I get the chance to drive such a car one day!
Mr Greg let me guess. You are a hipster.
the fact a PRIUS is your dream car is just sad
someone Dude... sarcasm is a thing...
i've seen someone being serious about 20k$ as dream car before
can't tell anymore ..
someone That's sad...
Every time I see one of those a soccer mom is in the driving seat.

Rianti Download for a good reason. And Mongolians love it too used from Japan. That's for a reason too.

It’s so ugly

@@blueeyedracer4990 such a beauty
@@blueeyedracer4990 i think so too
Watching this in January 2024. I really didn’t like the design of this when I first saw it many years ago.
But now, well I really do like it. It’s very smart and refreshingly different.
One thing that remains the same though. In all the places that really matter, no other manufacturer builds a car as well as Toyota.
Matt stole a Prius from an Uber driver, report him to the police! XD
anyone noticed the qi wireless charging pad just as he took the twix away?
I thought he would have mentioned it..But no..
WHY haven't you done a 2020 "Prius Prime" review?
What the hell 😂😂😂 Black mailing loenardo decaprio for loving the prius in his phone when he showed it
Holy sh*t i watching a prius review
That thing in cupholders is that you cant put phone in when you are not using them. Actually brilliant idea. I have two large cupholders that cant fit a mobile phone, useless space
I actually LOVE this version body style. Looks dope!
We had three Prius cars, the HV batteries failed in two of them at around 180k kms or about 110k miles. Any money we saved on fuel costs was given back to Toyota when we had to buy two new batteries.
I was Toyotas biggest fan but I would never buy another one now..ever. We sold the last remaining Prius soon after.
I wondered where my Lego wheels went.
Almost everything about this cars interior just looks cheap.
Stephen Butler and everyone says that Toyota's are high quality which is not true.
It is actually quite good. You’re talking out of your ass.
MakeMeYoursBitch I sure ain't. I'm in the market for a new car, and it is coming down to an Octavia vrs or an Rav4 hybrid. I took the new prius out for a drive, as well as the auris. I had no intrest in the last two, but bing a car geek it was rude not too, given I was there.
Also took out the new C HR (if that's its name) another terrible interior, thou better than the other two, that one is just to dark inside. It's like a cave.
So instead of "talking out my arse" I'm actually very well informed in the majority of the 'boring' family cars that are on the market atm
The only real upside to this car is its mpg, that's its usp, the rest is just crap light plastics to save weight, which adds to its great mpg figure.
Though tbh a megan 1.5d will be a better all-rounder, with a better interior, and will get you 60mpg. Which is impressive in itself. Also ford do a 1.6d in the focus that returns about the same. Both would be a better option. And look better on the outside. The focus is looking a bit tired on the inside tbh.

I own one and the interior is great. It's all good quality. The switches and levers all feel very sturdy. I don't know why they didn't go with an electric park brake though.
Adjustable middle part of cup holders... I mean I am not an expert, but some cups have handles! Japanese think about everything. Which is nice, I like that attention to details.
2:46 I wish uber drivers would obey me like that.
tarun akumalla 😂😂

I bought a E63 AMG last month...It was to noise, fast and pretty so I have now just sold it for a brand new Prius! Can't wait to save the world!
Christian mrclep cool story bro.
Christian mrclep yeah right!
Just wait for the people with no sense of humor to come in lol
U ain't Savin nothing m8
😂😂 best comm ever .
True man , why the fuck would someone buy a piece of shit like this instead of a propper car ? You have no fun driving , ne pleasure , it’s uggly as fuck inside and out ,etc etc! For what? Fuel economy? You pay 00000£ on it and then you want fuel economy? People are retarded .
The Adjustable center piece for the cup holder is for a cup with a handle
2:18 Why do you always complaint about the ridge in the boot? Can't one just load the luggage through the side doors?
One can, but only with difficulty when parked in a narrow garage or other tight spot. So some will be bothered, but others won't. De gustibus, etc.
Thankz4sharing Good point
I absolutely love the Toyota Prius.
i'd race it. looks pretty fun to race it, too.
The adjustable bit between the cup holders is for the handle of a cup to fit in snugly.
I feel safe, just a bit mad 😂😂😂😂
Adjustable cup holders suitable for mugs as well
Matt you king of reviwes👑
Dario you king of spwelling 👑
na bro
Looks like this car feel really good from inside
LOVELY CAR!
I will just get a 1991 Honda Civic as my daily which has a 1.5L engine power steering, auto transmission, A/C, 4 doors and a decent boot. It's also light on fuel,reliable, cheap to maintain and cheap to buy.
Doug is the type of guy...
Oops, wrong channel.
Aren James A. Matabia the type of guy to buy a Prius
Who owned a prius...seriously!
The Toyota Prius prime or Prius will be a very good car in the time we living in seriously
Honestly Toyota, what an absolutely ugly, ugly, ugly car.
Why!?!?
Aero > appearance

This Prius actually looks kinda nice
The newest Prius is uglier than the previous models
