@ridhwanramzi4773 4 года назад

The Prius C has a nice chassis that's firm compared to other econo boxes. The only downsides are the typical numb, delayed & disconnected steering that's common to most Toyotas and the boring drive train. If it had a better engine and revised steering, it might make for a genuinely fun hatchback.

I'm one of those weird kids who always wanted a Prius. Even when I got a Corolla as my first car, it was only because a Prius was too expensive. Fast forward 200k miles, and I traded that Corolla in for a '17 Prius. Honestly, I couldn't be happier. It feels so damn good hearing the engine shut off at 50 mph and just coast along on unicorn farts. I get double the fuel efficiency I used to, I drive wherever I want without thinking about the cost, and it's actually a pretty smooth, quiet ride for what's feels like it should be a compact car. I'm really looking forward to having a lot more hybrid options by the time this Prius finally gets traded in (honestly, they'll probably be phasing out gas engines entirely by that point), but I'm glad I got to own one and just laugh at toolbags who claim that "real car guys" would never drive it. This thing is a marvel of engineering and saves me a ton of money that I can then put toward project cars or whatever else.

All their drivers are too busy staring at the economy gauge to realize they're going 40 in a 70.

Lol. Thanks for the info no wonder all prius drivers are always going slow. Still they should not be in any other lane than the slow lane.

Prius Gen 3 owner, and I love all sorts of cars. The first car I've legally driven on the road was an 86 celica 5 speed manual, then a 98 malibu, then a 02 focus(don't recommend), then a 6 speed manual 08 wrangler, then a 11 Nissan frontier(do recommend), then an 08 BMW 335xi( nice but too expensive to maintain), then my prius(do recommend). My dream car since NFS hotpursuit 2 came out has been a McLaren f1. Point is you can still like cars and own a prius. They're cheap no nonsense reliable cars. But keep hating them. It'll keep the used price low so I can get more in the furture 😉
