2008 toyota prius review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Easy on the environment. introductionthe toyota prius is an impressive technological feat. We wouldn't have expected the pairing a small gas engine with a battery-powered motor to create a social phenomenon, but that's what the prius has done, and it continues to be in demand. the prius is the best-selling gas-electric hybrid in the united states and in the world. Toyota sold just 5,600 in 2001, but annual sales expanded to 54,000 in 2004 and 108,000 in 2005. Sales for the first quarter of 2008 were up from the same period in 2007. introduced as a 2001 model, the prius was redesigned for 2004 and updated for 2006. The 2008 prius gets some new options, notably leather upholstery and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. we find the prius to be a comfortable car that's easy to like and live with. It's roomy, with adult-size back seats and lots of cargo space. It's pleasant to look at, with sleek, futuristic styling, easy to spot in a parking lot. In short, we like the prius. the epa ratings for the 2008 prius are 48 mpg city, 45 mpg highway, and we're guessing everyday fuel economy for most owners should fall somewhere between 40 and 50 mpg. The test procedure used until recently by the federal environmental protection agency exaggerated the fuel efficiency of all hybrids, but the epa has revised its test procedures to more closely simulate modern driving habits. while the prius excels at fuel economy, its performance in terms of emissions is even better. Prius is certified as an advanced technology partial zero emissions vehicle (at-pzev); meaning that it meets the super ultra low emissions vehicle (sulev) exhaust standard; plus a zero evaporative emissions standard, a 150,000-mile durability demonstration, and an extended emissions system warranty. The prius isn't cheap, but it costs less than a lot of other vehicles that are commonly promoted as family transportation. it's important to understand that the prius is not an electric car. And there's no worry about driving beyond the range of the battery. No special knowledge is needed to drive the prius. Visually, it's distinguished by hid headlamps with integrated fog lamps, and a larger rear spoiler. options are bundled into packages, with each succeedingly numbered package building on the contents of the previous packages. Package 1 comes standard. Package 3 2,105) adds a premium nine-speaker jbl stereo with cd changer and bluetooth; and homelink. Package 4 2,580) adds hid headlamps with foglamps and a security alarm. Package 5 3,280) adds navigation. Package 6 4,550) tops it all off with leather seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. safety equipment that comes standard includes antilock brakes (abs), electronic brake-force distribution (ebd), brake assist, and traction control. Standard passive safety features include advanced multi-stage, dual front airbags; side-curtain airbags designed to offer head protection for front and rear passengers; seat-mounted side-impact airbags for torso protection for driver and front-seat passenger; three-point seatbelts and head restraints at all five seating positions; and rear seat head restraints that are adjustable. The quarter panels and doors are sleek and clean. The sole character line is a tasteful indentation in the lower region of the doors, visually connecting the creases marking the lower limits of the working area of the front and rear bumpers. the side view makes clear its devotion to aerodynamics. A steeply raked windshield carries the hood's acute angle rearward. An even more steeply raked backlight (rear windscreen) ends in a high spoiler that trips the air stream as it leaves the car, maximizing the aero advantage of the car's almost-vertical back end. Sleek rear quarter windows do more to visually enhance the aerodynamic look than they do for outward visibility. the 106-inch wheelbase contributes to a stable ride and interior room. But the prius looks under-tired, almost as if the tires were left out when the rest of the car was made larger. Vertically stacked compound taillights wear modish clear lenses and bookend the lower section of the liftgate. Integrated into the liftgate, and running its width beneath the rear spoiler, is a strip of glass adding critical rearward visibility for the driver. interiorthe prius is surprisingly roomy inside. Passenger volume measures 96. 2 cubic feet, which puts it into midsize sedan territory. In fact, the epa classifies it as a midsize car. But it feels more like a big compact to us. The hatchback design makes its cargo area flexible. the seats are comfortable for commutes and short weekend trips. The cloth upholstery looks durable and is grippy, compensating somewhat for the minimalist bottom and back side bolsters. Head restraints are adjustable in all five seating positions. The interior finish is up to toyota standards, with pleasingly close tolerances between body panels and interior plastic pieces, and plastics that look and feel better than the word plastic connotes. the speedometer, fuel gauge, trip meter, and transmission selection indicator are tucked into a long, flat, eyebrow-like opening draped across and centered on the top of the dash where it meets the windshield. The primary gauges are located in the left half of the opening, but are closer to the centerline of the car than to the driver. climate controls are managed via an lcd screen at the top of the center stack. This panel also displays user preferences and maintenance needs. Most entertaining, however, is that it allows tracking of the power and recharging flows, monitoring battery and gasoline usage. And it serves as the focal point for the optional navigation system. directly beneath the screen is the control head for the sound system. Toyota deserves high praise for keeping the stereo's most-used functions outside of the onboard computer's labyrinth and, equally important, for giving it buttons and knobs that are easy to see, read and use. The base am/fm/cd six-speaker sound system is quite capable. We'd have been better able to enjoy the premium jbl system to its fullest if there had been a bit more sound deadening in the floorpan and doors, but sound deadening adds weight, the enemy of fuel economy. remote switches for the audio, climate and cruise controls are conveniently mounted on the steering wheel. There are two standard accessory power outlets. Dome lights grace the headliner, front and rear. Both sun visors have illuminated vanity mirrors. These may seem small matters, but they distinguish between value and cheap. a tall glasshouse yields exemplary outward visibility. But as is the case with many of the latest aerodynamic designs, the driver can't see the front of the car or the hood without leaning forward. storage spaces are abundant and flexible. The glove box is a two-parter, with an upper and lower bin opening like a clamshell. The upper glove box is good for long, narrow items, like gloves. The lower compartment holds bulkier items. The front part of the center console opens up, also clamshell-like, into two cup holders. Door-mounted map pockets, expandable magazine holders stitched into the back of the front seat backs, and an unexpected, semi-secluded bin below the stereo offer additional storage. two cup holders pop out of the rear of the console for back-seat riders. An armrest folds down out of the rear seat back. The rear seats are split 60/40, each part of which folds to yield an almost-flat floor, without having to remove the head restraints. There are hidden spaces beneath the cargo floor, both below and on top of the mini-spare. gas pressurized struts ease opening and closing the hatchback. Doors close with a solid, if not truly impressive clunk; then again, weight savings have to come from somewhere. driving impressionm.

2005 toyota prius review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. The environment's best automotive friend. introductionthe 2005 toyota prius is more than a car. It's positive proof that more people than toyota imagined want to drive cars with radically improved fuel economy and significantly less environmental impact. this second-generation prius, introduced as a 2004 model, is larger than the original, and is now a midsize car. It's roomy, with adult-size back seats and lots of cargo space. And it's also more pleasant to look at, with sleek, futuristic styling. It's easy to spot in a crowded grocery store parking lot. the prius is rated 60/51 mpg city/highway by the federal government's environmental protection agency, with a combined rating of 55 mpg. The prius isn't cheap, but it's an amazing piece of engineering that achieves those goals. it's important to understand that the prius is not an electric car. And there's no worry about driving beyond the range of the battery. No special knowledge is needed to drive this car. When it debuted as a compact in 2001, toyota sold just 5,600 in the u. Sales had expanded to nearly 25,000. For 2004, toyota redesigned the prius, turning it into midsize car and completely re-engineering its mechanical and electrical systems. It's now much more attractive to many more people. Toyota sold more than 50,000 prius models in the u. To address this, toyota is expanding worldwide prius production by 50 percent, from 10,000 per month to 15,000. Still, it seems that as toyota builds more prius hybrids, more people want them. The fabric upholstery is as good as it gets. Automatic air conditioning with a micron filter is standard, as are power windows, door locks and heated outside mirrors; remote keyless entry; cruise control; a tilting steering wheel with redundant climate and audio controls; intermittent front and rear wipers; and a six-speaker am/fm/cd stereo. safety is enhanced with antilock brakes (abs), electronic brake-force distribution (ebd), brake assist, and traction control. Standard passive safety features include multi-stage, dual front airbags; three-point seatbelts and head restraints at all five seating positions; and rear seat head restraints that are adjustable. Curtain airbags designed to offer head protection for front and rear passengers and seat-mounted side-impact airbags for torso protection for driver and front-seat passenger are optional 650). options are bundled into packages for 2005. Package 2 920) combines a security alarm, homelink garage door opener, and smart key system. Package 3 1,100) combines the smart key system with the airbag package. The quarter panels and doors are sleek and clean. The sole character line is a tasteful indentation in the lower region of the doors, visually connecting the creases marking the lower limits of the working area of the front and rear bumpers. the side view makes clear the stylists' devotion to aerodynamics. A steeply raked windshield carries the hood's acute angle rearward. An even more steeply raked backlight (rear windscreen) ends in a high spoiler that trips the air stream as it leaves the car, maximizing the aero advantage of the car's almost-vertical back end. Sleek rear quarter windows do more to visually enhance the aerodynamic look than they do for outward visibility. pictures deceive when it comes to the tires. Viewed in the paint, the prius looks under-tired, almost as if the tires were left out when the rest of the car was made larger. The narrow tires probably help fuel ecnomy, but they clash visually with the proportions. the headlights are geometrically complex compound units, housing the running lights, side marker lights and turn indicators. Vertically stacked, compound taillights wear modish clear lenses and bookend the lower section of the liftgate. Integrated into the liftgate, and running its width beneath the rear spoiler, is a strip of glass adding critical rearward visibility for the driver. the first-generation 2001-03 prius was classified as a compact by the epa, but the second-generation 2004-05 prius is considered a midsize car. Its wheelbase (the distance between the centers of the front and rear wheels) is about 6 inches longer than before, yielding a more stable ride and more legroom inside. interiorthe interior of the 2005 prius is significantly roomier than earlier models. Passenger volume measures 96. 2 cubic feet, up more than 6 cubic feet from the '03 prius. And the '05 prius is nearly 5 cubic feet roomier than the honda civic hybrid. the back seat is surprisingly roomy. There's 2-1/2 inches more rear leg room than in the civic hybrid, and prius even beats the camry by an inch. Still, the prius remains five-passenger car in designation only, or when one of the rear seat occupants is much smaller statured than the other two. The cloth upholstery looks durable and is grippy, compensating somewhat for the minimalist bottom and back side bolsters. Head restraints are adjustable in all five seating positions, although in their lowered positions, the rear seat's restraints are close to dysfunctional for taller passengers. The interior finish is up to toyota standards, with pleasingly close tolerances between body panels and interior plastic pieces, and plastics that look and feel better than the word plastic connotates. the speedometer, fuel gauge, trip meter, and transmission selection indicator are tucked into a long, flat, eyebrow-like opening draped across and centered on the top of the dash where it meets the windshield.

2006 toyota prius review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. The environment's best friend. introductionthe toyota prius is more than a car. It's proof that more people than toyota imagined want to drive cars with significantly improved fuel economy and radically less environmental impact. Toyota has boosted production to keep up with the demand, and the 2006 model benefits from the addition of new advanced airbags and other safety technology plus new comfort and convenience features. this second-generation prius, introduced as a 2004 model, is larger than the original, and is now a midsize car. It's roomy, with adult-size back seats and lots of cargo space. It's pleasant to look at, with sleek, futuristic styling, easy to spot in a parking lot. the prius is rated 60/51 mpg city/highway by the federal government's environmental protection agency, with a combined rating of 55 mpg.

2008 toyota prius review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Easy on the environment. introductionthe toyota prius is an impressive technological feat. We wouldn't have expected the pairing a small gas engine with a battery-powered motor to create a social phenomenon, but that's what the prius has done, and it continues to be in demand. the prius is the best-selling gas-electric hybrid in the united states and in the world. Toyota sold just 5,600 in 2001, but annual sales expanded to 54,000 in 2004 and 108,000 in 2005. Sales for the first quarter of 2008 were up from the same period in 2007. introduced as a 2001 model, the prius was redesigned for 2004 and updated for 2006. The 2008 prius gets some new options, notably leather upholstery and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. we find the prius to be a comfortable car that's easy to like and live with. It's roomy, with adult-size back seats and lots of cargo space. It's pleasant to look at, with sleek, futuristic styling, easy to spot in a parking lot. In short, we like the prius. the epa ratings for the 2008 prius are 48 mpg city, 45 mpg highway, and we're guessing everyday fuel economy for most owners should fall somewhere between 40 and 50 mpg. The test procedure used until recently by the federal environmental protection agency exaggerated the fuel efficiency of all hybrids, but the epa has revised its test procedures to more closely simulate modern driving habits. while the prius excels at fuel economy, its performance in terms of emissions is even better. Prius is certified as an advanced technology partial zero emissions vehicle (at-pzev); meaning that it meets the super ultra low emissions vehicle (sulev) exhaust standard; plus a zero evaporative emissions standard, a 150,000-mile durability demonstration, and an extended emissions system warranty. The prius isn't cheap, but it costs less than a lot of other vehicles that are commonly promoted as family transportation. it's important to understand that the prius is not an electric car. And there's no worry about driving beyond the range of the battery. No special knowledge is needed to drive the prius. Visually, it's distinguished by hid headlamps with integrated fog lamps, and a larger rear spoiler. options are bundled into packages, with each succeedingly numbered package building on the contents of the previous packages. Package 1 comes standard. Package 3 2,105) adds a premium nine-speaker jbl stereo with cd changer and bluetooth; and homelink. Package 4 2,580) adds hid headlamps with foglamps and a security alarm. Package 5 3,280) adds navigation. Package 6 4,550) tops it all off with leather seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. safety equipment that comes standard includes antilock brakes (abs), electronic brake-force distribution (ebd), brake assist, and traction control. Standard passive safety features include advanced multi-stage, dual front airbags; side-curtain airbags designed to offer head protection for front and rear passengers; seat-mounted side-impact airbags for torso protection for driver and front-seat passenger; three-point seatbelts and head restraints at all five seating positions; and rear seat head restraints that are adjustable. The quarter panels and doors are sleek and clean. The sole character line is a tasteful indentation in the lower region of the doors, visually connecting the creases marking the lower limits of the working area of the front and rear bumpers. the side view makes clear its devotion to aerodynamics. A steeply raked windshield carries the hood's acute angle rearward. An even more steeply raked backlight (rear windscreen) ends in a high spoiler that trips the air stream as it leaves the car, maximizing the aero advantage of the car's almost-vertical back end. Sleek rear quarter windows do more to visually enhance the aerodynamic look than they do for outward visibility. the 106-inch wheelbase contributes to a stable ride and interior room. But the prius looks under-tired, almost as if the tires were left out when the rest of the car was made larger. Vertically stacked compound taillights wear modish clear lenses and bookend the lower section of the liftgate. Integrated into the liftgate, and running its width beneath the rear spoiler, is a strip of glass adding critical rearward visibility for the driver. interiorthe prius is surprisingly roomy inside. Passenger volume measures 96. 2 cubic feet, which puts it into midsize sedan territory. In fact, the epa classifies it as a midsize car. But it feels more like a big compact to us. The hatchback design makes its cargo area flexible. the seats are comfortable for commutes and short weekend trips. The cloth upholstery looks durable and is grippy, compensating somewhat for the minimalist bottom and back side bolsters. Head restraints are adjustable in all five seating positions. The interior finish is up to toyota standards, with pleasingly close tolerances between body panels and interior plastic pieces, and plastics that look and feel better than the word plastic connotes. the speedometer, fuel gauge, trip meter, and transmission selection indicator are tucked into a long, flat, eyebrow-like opening draped across and centered on the top of the dash where it meets the windshield. The primary gauges are located in the left half of the opening, but are closer to the centerline of the car than to the driver. climate controls are managed via an lcd screen at the top of the center stack. This panel also displays user preferences and maintenance needs. Most entertaining, however, is that it allows tracking of the power and recharging flows, monitoring battery and gasoline usage. And it serves as the focal point for the optional navigation system. directly beneath the screen is the control head for the sound system. Toyota deserves high praise for keeping the stereo's most-used functions outside of the onboard computer's labyrinth and, equally important, for giving it buttons and knobs that are easy to see, read and use. The base am/fm/cd six-speaker sound system is quite capable. We'd have been better able to enjoy the premium jbl system to its fullest if there had been a bit more sound deadening in the floorpan and doors, but sound deadening adds weight, the enemy of fuel economy. remote switches for the audio, climate and cruise controls are conveniently mounted on the steering wheel. There are two standard accessory power outlets. Dome lights grace the headliner, front and rear. Both sun visors have illuminated vanity mirrors. These may seem small matters, but they distinguish between value and cheap. a tall glasshouse yields exemplary outward visibility. But as is the case with many of the latest aerodynamic designs, the driver can't see the front of the car or the hood without leaning forward. storage spaces are abundant and flexible. The glove box is a two-parter, with an upper and lower bin opening like a clamshell. The upper glove box is good for long, narrow items, like gloves. The lower compartment holds bulkier items. The front part of the center console opens up, also clamshell-like, into two cup holders. Door-mounted map pockets, expandable magazine holders stitched into the back of the front seat backs, and an unexpected, semi-secluded bin below the stereo offer additional storage. two cup holders pop out of the rear of the console for back-seat riders. An armrest folds down out of the rear seat back. The rear seats are split 60/40, each part of which folds to yield an almost-flat floor, without having to remove the head restraints. There are hidden spaces beneath the cargo floor, both below and on top of the mini-spare. gas pressurized struts ease opening and closing the hatchback. Doors close with a solid, if not truly impressive clunk; then again, weight savings have to come from somewhere. driving impressionm.
