2004 Toyota Prius Standard review from Australia and New Zealand
"City car with great fuel economy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fabric interior is prone to easy wear and tear.
Dash easily scuffed.
Expensive for its size.
Speedo slightly under reads speed.
General comments?
Very economical 4.5L/100kms.
Silent to quiet running at slow speeds.
Good pick up from standing start.
Cruise control maintains speed on freeway with few surges.
