Toyota Prius 1.5 2009

4 star review

Futher to my previous review we have now undertaken the 1200 miles to Nairn and back. With local running it amounts to 1400 miles. At no time did we drive for economy, just kept up with the traffic, cruising at 75’ish mph with the occasional visits to higher numbers. We averaged 58.6mpg. The comfort was great, no back aches at all. Local running back home on back roads to Clacton returned 62mpg! Fantastic.

Toyota Prius T4 2009

4 star review

I rented one of these cars for a weekend. It is so different from the norm that a 30 minute test drive proves nothing. This is not a driver’s car - if you want feel and dynamic handling then look elsewhere. For fuel economy though it is pretty good. I averaged 53mpg on a mix of driving. Round town averaged about 57 (though very thirsty on a cold engine). Motorway MPG is a very disappointing 40. I think the acceleration is deceptive - because it is so smooth and there is no link between road speed and engine revs you are accelerating much quicker than you realise. I enjoyed our weekend together and the car has a lot of good points but I don’t think I will be buying one.
