Anonymous, IL (2018 Toyota Prius)
"I was happy with my 2014 Prius but I find the 2018 to be better in almost all areas. It handles better then what I thought was excellent and has the power and economy that I find almost impossible. I drove from PA to central CA and back last month and did not feel tired after driving for a whole day it was comfortable and handled very well"
Russell G., PA (2018 Toyota Prius)
