2010prius

Figuring out a car’s mileage rating is a tricky business, especially for hybrids. Toyota experienced issues while testing the new Prius, due out later this spring. Originally thought to be rated at 50/49 mpg city/highway, the company now says those numbers have been revised to 51/48 mpg.

The combined mileage remains 50 mpg.

I know from personal experience that there is something so GREAT about driving a hybrid like the Prius that uses ALMOST NO gas!!! Once you go Hybrid....you cannot go back.

I am sure people felt the same way about the cars after the gas shock. But high fuel milleage cars are here to stay now.

I never considered buying a Prius in the past. But I found the new styling just edgy enough for a test drive. I have owned the car now for about six weeks. I could not be happier. I cannot imagine owning any other auto now. Amazing mileage!!! Very comfortable as well.
