Gem of a car

Wonderful reliability, excellent fuel economy, very comfortable seating (both front and back), easy to get in and out of, amazing amount of storage space in back (with seats folded down).

The car is everything I had hop[ed for.

The car is a joy to drive. The acceleration on hills in eco mode is surprising. Gas mileage is actually meeting the EPA standards. Cargo volume is awesome and the behind- rear seat storage is perfect for small packages, pillows. I replaced our van with the V and have tremendous flexibility in carrying different loads.

Great car to own!

My Prius V has served me well in the 4 1/2 years I've owned it. The gas mileage is awesome, and the service I get at Toyota of York has been appreciated!

Versatile performer

This car has the advantages of a minivan, with the fuel economy of a Prius. We compared this car to others using two suitcases as a practical measure of its carrying capacity. It swallowed the two large cases with room to spare. Storage under the rear deck and behind the rear seats is amazing and functional. operation of the vehicle is easy with well thought our control locations. Easy to read digital speed display is great. Seats are comfortable, highly adjustable and seat cushions are long to support thighs. We love the heated seat cushions in the colder months.

Pros and cons of the 2012 Toyota Prius V

Love this car overall. It's great on fuel, easy to maintain, and serves transportation needs/desires very well. I also love being able to fold down the back seats for extra room to transport large items. My one complaint is that the blind spots can be severe. Therefore, anyone driving this car must be extremely careful about the surroundings. Thankfully it does have a rear camera that activates when the vehicle is put into reverse gear. One time I had a little mishap when I momentarily backed into a mailbox post. Another time while temporarily parked in an apartment complex to pick up someone, another vehicle backed into my car, ever so slightly scratching the side near the rear tire. It was (MARVEL AT THIS!) another Prius with poor visibility! So, as I say, drivers must be careful. Otherwise, it is a fantastic car!

Best car we ever owned

Surprising interior space that beats the likes of other, much larger wagons combined with 40mpg is a no brainier.

Everywhere everyday car

Of all the cars I've owned in past years, the prius V has been comfortable and spacious. I have had utility vehicles, sedans, and a sports car and my prius V fills all those needs. The gas mileage too, makes it even more desirable.

2012 Toyota Prius V

I love my Prius V - my Toyota "station wagon". It's roomy. I bought it for a move from coast-to-coast so that I could carry the important. Stuff with me. We made it in good time, and averaged 50mpg on the highway. My local driving mileage is good, too. I average between 35 and 43mpg on my commute route. I really like the heated seats in the winter! It is reliable, and McCord's Toyota, here in Vancouver, WA, takes good care of my vehicle. My only criticism is that I wish Toyota would come up with more original colors for the vehicles. The gray, blue, white, black, red, sandy-tones are BORING - every car maker has the same colors. I expect to purchase another Toyota in the future, one that, I hope, includes all of the newest safety features (radar/auto stopping, lane monitoring, etc.) and a more exciting color choice.

Love this V

I was sorry to hear Toyota stopped production. 41 MPG and it is bigger than many of the small SUVs. The seats fold to make a huge cargo area. I hope to keep it for many more years. Neighbors bought one too after seeing mine.
