Three great years

I bought my 2018 Prius Prime Advanced through Carmax on August 19, 2021, so just a few days short of three years of ownership at this point. It has exceeded expectations in every way. I was after economy and environmental friendliness. On trips I have continued to get 64 to 66 highway mpg in HV (highbred only) mode and have been able to accomplish most of my local driving (97%) in EV (Electric) mode where I'm getting 5.3 to 6.4 miles per kWh. (Cold weather is the 5.3 while in 70s to 80s temps (without AC) I usually get over 6.) My only required maintenance so far has been oil changes and a set of new windshield wipers. I guess I should note, regarding gas mileage, that I drive the speed limit or 65 on the highway whichever is less. I also choose lower speed roads locally when using EV only and drive carefully to conserve power thus obtaining 34 to 38 miles of range on a charge. I particularly like the automatic high beam/ low beam headlight assist, the smart cruise control that will adjust to traffic speed, and blind spot monitoring. The automatic windshield wipers are also a nice touch although not as important. While I don't run in anything but "Economy" mode, it is nice to know there is a "normal" mode, or even "power" mode, which will optimize acceleration and snappy performance over top gas mileage should I want it. I have not found the lessor economy modes to be necessary around Asheville like they might be on city freeways like around Atlanta. This has been the perfect vehicle for me.

Continues to exceed all expectations after 26 months of ownership and 14,500 miles

comfortable, quiet, fun to drive, and very economical. Last year I drove 2015 miles in Hybrid mode on 30.5 gallons of gas (average 66 mpg) and 4167 miles in EV only mode using 703 kW (average 5.9 miles per KW). With a range of 35 to 38 miles on a charge I can do almost all my local driving in EV mode but still have a highly efficient hybrid for out-of-town trips. (I charge on a ground fault protected regular 110 outlet in my garage where it takes about 4 hours 40 minutes to go from base to a full 100% charge.) It is a great travel car for two people with the rear seats folded down for lots of cargo space. It will work for 3 people with one rear seat down but with all four seats up, baggage space is tight which isn't an issue for me but might be a problem for some others. I list performance as a 7 below because, while perfect for my needs and taste, it IS NOT a sports car but is certainly adequate for safety even in eco mode. With sport mode, 0 to 60 is still 10 seconds. I love the adaptive cruise control, automatic on-off high beam head lights, automatic wind shield wipers, and many protective safety features. I also personally like the styling but that is clearly a personal preference. As to reliability, in 2+ years ownership my only needed maintenance has been oil changes and new windshield wipers.

Exceeds all expectations

I bought this Prius Prime "plug-in" Advanced in August of 2021 from Carmax with 7480 miles on the odometer and have owned it a few days short of two years as of today August 9, 2023. (It replaced my 2009 Honda Fit.) I hoped to lower my carbon footprint by accomplishing much of my local driving in zero polluting electric mode while still having a highly efficient hybrid for trips. As noted below, over two years this vehicle has far exceeded the EPA predicted 4 miles per kWh and 50 mpg. With my actual electric range of 36 to 38 miles I can do almost all of my local driving, with good planning, in EV only mode. I charge at home with a regular 110 outlet in my garage with electric cost at 2.4 cents per mile under current electric rates. (My local driving is mostly at 35 to 45 mph which is probably part of the reason for much higher than EPA predicted efficiency. Freeway speeds will chew up battery juice much faster.) On trips I also drive 65, or the speed limit, whichever is less. Faster speeds chew up gas as well--as much as 5 to 7 mpg if driving 70 instead of 65 by my one 60-mile distance test. The "Advanced" is equivalent to the "limited" of later year models so has adaptive cruise control, automatic headlight dimming, automatic windshield wiper control, blind spot warning light, lane centering warning, automatic braking to avoid hitting anything in front or when backing up-- all of which I really like. Over two years it has also only needed oil changes, new wiper blades and tire rotations. I am extremely pleased with all aspects of the vehicle with the minor exception of the way the climate controls work which I have listed under Cons below.

Plug-in Hybrid is the way to go!

My 2018 Prius plug-on hybrid has been an outstanding car throughout the five years that I've owned it. I drive less than 25 miles a day, so I'm usually driving on battery power which gives best performance--fast pick-up, in particular. My 220v charger at home is placed right beside the car's charging port. Very convenient!

This is an Excellent car!

I have had nothing, but great experience with this car. I have about 65,000 miles on it and it has been trouble-free. My only complaint is that the driving range on a battery charge is pretty short. .. about 20 miles, or so. I wish it were longer.

Prius Prime

this is very good car. only thing I don't like is 4 seat. doesn't make sense to have two cup holder on middle of back seat. many smaller cars have 5 seats. if is better have bigger batter to drive more than 25 miles, e.g. 35 mile.

Good Car

The visibility front & rear is improved, making driving a Prius more comfortable. I do not miss the rear window wiper at all. I seldom used it on my 2 previous Priuses. The rear hatch is light & easier to shut. The cruise control is absolutely stellar- the best I've ever had. I am not happy that Toyota moved the USB port outside of the console, so my IPod Touch's white wire is very visible to prying eyes. I am not happy with the reduction of glove boxes (1 as opposed to 2). I have rearranged my stuff & everything fits in them EXCEPT the owner's manual packet, which now resides in my house- not a good place if I am on the road and need it. The grille is the ugliest of all Priuses- it looks like an angry alien insect...

George Jetson Car!

This was my 3rd Prius and has some significant advantages over my 2008 and my 2010. It is more fuel-efficient and the visibility has improved all around. I think the exterior is pretty ugly, to tell the truth. The nose is reminiscent of an angry alien insect. I hate losing a glove box- I need 2.
