I have to say, and I rarely post this kind of stuff….but I have a 2013 Prius C. I bought it because with my job I drive a lot. I have NOT had ONE problem with it. Because there is that brake assist thing on the gear shift, I still have yet to change my brake pads! It rides comfortable, and I really don’t know what you are talking about with the “seat issues” you had with the car. Sure there’s some road noise but all of my friends and family have grown to actually like the car. Again, it’s so easy to drive and maneuver. All my kids learned to drive on it. The power isn’t great at all, but you don’t buy a Prius to do zero to 60 sprints. It gets on the freeway with no problem, and I’m not afraid to floor it, because you have to in most cases. They say the zero to 30 is normal for a car, and that’s what you need around town to get around a slow driver or make a quick lane change. It’s like a video game sometimes when I’m driving around town to see how high I can get the mileage. I’ve gotten as high as 60 miles to the gallon in the city and 47 on the highways. I bought the car for under 23K brand new and I knew going into this that the car would be slow and maybe a cheap build but it’s turned out to be a joy to own with no problems. I watch my friends complain about putting over $150 in their tanks and I just chuckle. Anyway, that’s just my opinion really. Funny video though.
I too love our 2016 prius c. Had it 5 1/2 years and saved over $6000 in petrol from having a mazda 3 over this time period. And the speed is plenty fast for street or highway driving. Honestly 8 seconds to reach any kind of speed makes no difference for safe drivers who dont wish to kill themselves or other drivers.
Funny video but Glad this is the first comment I ran into. I put 1,000 miles on my Prius c each week. Love her so much. He’s not lying about the downsides, but 55 mpg and a reliable ass engine… can’t beat it. Lol
we have a Prius C. im close to 60, my wife and I have driven California to Vermont in 5 occasions (started with covid) and we report no regrets si far. We love our prius :)
what a horrible review 😆 this car was well designed and its reliability and low fuel consumption is awesome! Sure its not a race car, but for city is very wise choise.
Hi I couldn't disagree more with. 70 MPH? are you kidding ? try 100 MPH on straight road. I own trim 3 2012 with almost 300K miles on it. I bought this car over 10 years ago to replace my tacoma 4x4 truck to make long distance kitesurfing trips. On average each trip is around 700 miles round way. while seats are not best for sleeping over night, but yes I have done it. I can assure you I have used this car as truck more than my old Tacoma truck, I literally build porch, deck, and put up over 500 feet fence and even gone night clubbing with it, as well as moved content of entire house from Knoxville to Atlanta in multiple trips of course. I cant wait for this thing to break so I can buy Tesla or EV Volkswagen bus when it comes out. Who knows maybe I got lucky and got a good one or maybe the new models are not as zippy as the old ones. As a joke I nick named my car Hummer :) anyways, cheers, I just wanted to share with you my experience driving this beaut for past 10 years. And yes you can even bang in backseat or front seat, its not roomy but it'll do :D
@@lashabaramidze436 it is not a big tank. In this cold weather (near 0) I'm getting 45 mpg and the fill ups are usually less than 8 gallons. 360 miles or so.
Love my 2015 C, no problems at all and can go over 75 easily. This is my go to when I don’t want to drive the 8MPG truck. Make fun all you want but soon gas will be over 5$ a gallon and you’ll want one
I drove my Prius C to Colorado and somewhere in between the speed limit is like 85 so everyone goes 90+ .... i drove at 105 for like an hour down a long stretch, people were flashing their lights telling me to slow down! mpg was still like 35
I have a 2016. Never had one problem. I average 50-60 mpg if driven conservatively. It’s a great car. It’s comfortable, quiet, and will go 75+ very smoothly. It doesn’t have quick pickup of course but who’s trying to race someone in a Prius C?
I have a 2019 Prius C, purchased in 2018. My daily commute is a round trip from sea level to 400 feet+ above sea level over an 8 mile distance, 5 times a week. I live on an island in Hawaii where gas, as of 04/21/2022, is at 6.00/gal. I get 47 mpg+; a full tank of gas is just less than 10 gallons. I regularly get 400 miles with more than an eighth left before each fill in. I have an 8' 6" surfboard that fits perfectly with the passenger seat down. I've also used it to carry items as big as a PA system (EV Evolve 30m). I've also used it on the Oahu freeways - no problem going 70+. It's not a 60's or 70's muscle car (I once had a 1970 302ci Chevelle coup - a classic V8 flexer), but it's the perfect transportation for the times and my needs.
How am I supposed to consider a review valid when I hear 2 heavily biased jokes at the start? I enjoy comedy and making fun of the absurd, but that's not really appropriate for being objective.
Prius Hybrid Batteries can and are recycled at the end of the cars life, and most of the raw materials are recovered. This dude is so wrong about every point he makes that I assume it's satire.
These cars are bulletproof and share their underpinnings with the NCP91/131 Yaris. There is a reason this channel doesn't even have 1k subs. Idiots who think an entry level hybrid needs to have the refinement of an LS500h for 20 grand.
I've owned a Prius C since 2018 and I love it! It's reliable, affordable, and gets good gas mileage. The only downsides I can think of are the seat design & the black interior that tends to show dust & it has a texture that is challenging to clean. I just use a pillow for extra support for the seat. This is still a purchase that I'm very happy with.
I don't own the Prius, but the point of the car is to save money and that's all. And if u consider that every car is a box that gets u places , then it's stupidly cheap my guy.
I bought my wife a 2014 Prius C new in 2014. The car now has 85k miles with ZERO problems. The C is for City or Commuter, which the car does great. She averages 45 - 55 mpg and if you baby it a bit, I can get well into the 60+ mpg. For all the things it doesn't do, it makes up for in economy. (I voted for Trump)
I agree with the battery can't be recycled stuff but overall in my opinion you're better off buying a Prius cuz you save a ton of money. I personally own a Toyota priusC (Aqua in some markets) which i imported straight from japan in my home country Pakistan. Here traffic is at worst specially rush hours and still i manage to get 60+ mpgs or 25+ km/l with ease. I daily go to university in this car and i love it! This is a best first car if you're thinking to buy it in your college life.
@@lillock2401 Gets 50mpg and plenty fast for daily use, in europe they have a 1L and 1.3L version, we get the big 1.5L so imagine it can be even slower lol You obviously need the manual to get better mpg and easier to stay in the powerband over the autotragic.
I am shocked with your views, I am using prius C from last 3 years, 120kph can be achieved in 10 seconds My max speed is 160kph And comfort = 100% Stop misleading people please
@@aliendroneservices6621 nah your 0-60 is 11 second stop lying to yourself I’ve been trying to break that 11 second mark with headers egr delete intake and injectors and 0-40 is faster but 40-60 is always slow as hell so no prevail so far
Been driving a 2013 Prius C since 2014. It’s nimble and fun to drive with 50 plus MPG in the eco mode. Never had a mechanical or electrical failure. I plan to sell it and go EV with the Nissan Leaf S 2022.
Hey i have a 2013 prius c, ijust have a suggestion, take the head rests out and turn them around so their facing backwords, its 10 times more comfortable so your neck isnt leaned forward as far
I’m currently driving 2013 Prius Four and love it. I wouldn’t mind at all downgrading in the future to Prius C. My main concern is to save gas money. I had a pick up truck and minivan that used to drink gas till they got drunk. For $5 a gallon, I’d spend $63 to fill up my minivan tank after driving it only 212 miles, and over $100 to fill up my pick up. Of course driving a pick up and minivan is a lot comfortable than driving a Prius. But I forced myself to get used to a smaller vehicle. Once you get used to driving big vehicles, it becomes almost impossible to drive a smaller one. But I was like, why don’t I get a Prius and use the gas money I saved to pay down my credit card bills, or treat myself once a month to a decent meal in a fancy restaurant, especially that I put a serious amount of mileages on my car. Let’s say 6,000 miles a month. Totally worth it.
I have a Prius c and I have no trouble getting to speed and staying there. I also love my seats they're comfy and I have so much room in my seats. I haven't noticed much noise when driving on the highway nothing compared to my mirage, danger ranger or Ford focus. The only thing I dislike about my Prius C is they don't make it anymore. I bought it because the hybrid aspect so I don't have to use as much gas especially nowadays. Also Prius in general last at least 500,000 miles so I'd rather have that than a car that'll only last me maybe 200,000. They've been using the same cabs in my town since they started the company and they're all Prius(s?). The guy even told me himself they don't start to see issues with the car until after 500,000 miles so if I treat my car nice it could last a lifetime
People who miss the point of cars like this, should not review cars like this, they are built for a reason for a certain customer base, they are not sports cars, or luxury saloons. You are not really funny if comedy was your intention.
As a Prius c owner I can tell that you don't know what are you talking about. No body talks about the Chevrolet spark. This is prove that people are easy to manipulate with social media.
Yea, I get it. It's not exactly the coolest car, but the hate in your heart is too real to be based on that alone. Who hurt you? And did they do it with the Prius C, or does that person just drive one? Either way, I can see you're hurting, and I hope you find the healing you need. If you somehow find yourself forced to drive a Prius C again, try dropping in to the B gear on acceleration, controlled maneuvering, and anywhere engine braking feels right. Does it make a huge difference? No. No, not much. Does it help a little, though? Sure. Why not? If nothing else, the act of shifting has a sporty placebo affect. You may not end up liking the car anymore than you already don't, but you probably won't back slide into a full relapse of your Prius C anguish, once the nightmare ends. God speed solider.
I'm heading out this morning to replace my front and rear shocks and struts. Cost me $260. "Four" trim. Nav, heated seats, moon roof. I came from a 69' F-250 and a '69 VW Beetle so this car is awesome to me. Thanks for the video, although my opinion differs. 🤙
Nonsense video ! I own 2 Prius c 2013 and 14 for daily use along with other luxury cars and 4+ years not a single problem . Seats are fine I am 6 feet 250lbs man . You buy these cars not for comfort it’s to beat the hell out of it for work and daily use . ABSOLUTELY GREAT VEHICLES FOR THR PRICE ZERO COMPLAINS ! Gtfo
I'm really wondering if this guy did this video for the single purpose of gathering negative comments. I'm an owner myself and just by looking at all the other ones commenting, he is spreading misinformation.
lol. All video production without any content substance. While I do not own a Prius C, I do know people who do and have driven one on a 400km roundtrip with 4 other people. Sorry to be blunt but it makes sense that you've had this channel for so long yet have not grown at all.
Just did 600 miles in three days in my Prius c Did up to 90 on the freeway for hours was just fine 90000 miles it’s a pretty nice car You need to flog it to get past 60 And it cruises best between 70 to 80 Did 600 miles and it costs 50 bucks in gas Two up Ain’t bad
Max speed is 90 mph but you don’t need to go that fast on US highways Most traffic is going 70 to 80 at most and this car can handle it Going over 70 may be ticket territory though
The most useless review to ever exist, the level of biasness this guy has is insane. Having a prius C from more than 3 years and it's pretty comfortable and not underpowered in any way. It's excellent for driving in the town and gives excellent fuel efficiency. Idk what this guy is comparing a budget car to
"Slightly north of 40 mpg" in the coldest part of the winter, maybe. Mid-to-high 50s in the summer. Best car I've ever owned. And perfectly comfortable (and I'm 6' as well, like the commenter just below.)
It is very easy to beat the EPA rating by a lot in our 2018. Maybe not when it’s extremely cold, but otherwise it’s rare we don’t get above 50 MPG. The EPA rating for our 2018 is 46 MPG combined
You just hate it. Unfortunately, most people watching this don't think it's as bad as you put it. The issues to do with waste and rare earth are not peculiar to toyota
I own a 2015 Prius C and the gas savings I've had is great compared to my last three vehicles. As for road noise, I listen to my music loud, so I don't get distracted by road noise. Power isn't great but one going into a Prius-C should know this and know they can turn off eco mode if they wanted to. My only caveat is the roof molding which has to be replaced and for most people, the car battery is not the easiest to replace (thank goodness for AAA) to have the car towed to the dealership but it did last me a good six years before I needed to have it replaced. But if anything, I am loving the gas savings and not having to spend nearly $200 a month on gas anymore since I got this car is great. And yes, I also ride a bike.
I'm very old fashion, but I LIKE road noise. Normal car noise is fine to me, keeps me awake on long car rides when an overly comfortable seat and overly quiet car would be a straight up danger.
Thumbs up for being hilariously funny, though I am buying a Prius C myself. I don't think it's any less comfortable or noisy than any other car in its class. Those issues are typical of sub-compacts.
I traded in a audi for a one year old Prius. It doesn't have all the gadgets. However the only thing i miss is the speed and heated seats. I average about 65-60 on gas. Lol $20 for 400 miles of range sounds better than $55. Whats gas hikes???? If you want speed and luxury this isn't the car. Reliablity and efficiency is the theme of this car.
I agree about the seats, so i bought a seat cushion, helps a lot. The sound system isn't the best. But I love the fact that its economical, easy maintenance and gets me into small spaces. Overall a good reliable car.
I have a 2012 Prius c that I use as my daily commuter this dude has no idea what he's talking about it's comfortable as hell and most certainly do over 70 mph I regularly have it up to 80-85 on the interstate and I'm not sure what the hell he was driving or how he was driving but I'm usually pinging around 52 miles to the gallon
Cringeworthy jokes, Henry. I didn't buy the car for politics, I bought it because I live in a city where it's mostly parallel parking (smaller cars = more marking spots), and fuel economy is important.
2024 and my 15’ is immaculate. Put in some sound deadening, quiet tires, sound system and never missed a maintenance. Only one original owner and I know them. $30 to fill a full tank and last 2.5 weeks with long commutes is a win for me. Road trips are the best. I’ve done several long distance desert drives, and don’t even get me started on the AC! 🥶
I have had my Prius C for 4 years. I used to drive Infiniti, and I do not feel that the seat is bad at all. Do you know that the seat can be adjusted????
@@HenrywithCars I have no prob with the seat and never heard any of Prius owners have seat problem. I bought Prius just purely for driving to work, for my office is far from my house and my route is perfect to save gas. I can buy BMW if I want to, but my time for fancy car has over.
@@HenrywithCars depends on the seats you have I’m 6.2 and It’s my daily it’s got a egr delete, headers, injectors and a cold air intake also my sound systems enough to blow your window out there’s too much hate in this car for no reason
@@therandomrobert1842 The ones I've sat in have been terribly uncomfortable, but maybe you're right, maybe Toyota updated the seats at some point in the production cycle. Some of the hate is in jest, but regardless, mad props to your modded prius!
I love my Prius C...no spinal trauma...best mpg in town..83mpg. best hwy 64.5 mpg. Highest I dared go 110 mph..maybe I'll start a battery recycling center...but not many of those to be had since they're still on the road.
What's his problem? There must be an obscure diagonisis for this kind of hate which by the way is not for the car but for those who like that car. BTW if you have subscribed then please unsubscribe.
My 2016 Toyota appliance (Prius C) has been exactly what I got it for !, just reliable transport . Only have done regular maintenance to it at 100,000 miles still have at least 50% brake pads left. And I regularly carry 800Lbs of animal feed in it.
Its a hybrid, easy to park in tight CBD spaces, and has a bigger boot and more cabin space than the Yaris and Corolla hatchback. Great for a first car for uni students on a budget. Its not a performance car, but it'll get you from A-B.
What a bunch of shitt review .I own a Toyota Prius c /aqua and it is by far the best of both worlds.mpg +acceleration 0-100 in 9-10 s and top speed I have reached is 180 kmh so please spreading rubbish
A bike is fanciful, the practical environmentalist is still driving their 1991 Civic. The best way to minimize the impact of your car usage on the earth is to KEEP YOUR OLD CAR! QUIT BUYING SO DAMN MANY NEW CARS! Making a car takes WAY MORE resources than you'll save with the better efficiency!
I bought a 2014- 17,200 out the door replacing a car that averaged 25mpg. The gas savings made the car payment. It is the best car buy I ever made. It is not close to my favorite car because it sucks on longer drives but for what it can do it is close to as good as it can get. It they continued selling it with a lithium pack and the ability to go further on battery alone at say 55 before it shut off maybe 30 miles I would say it would then be a perfect commuter car. I've averaged 52mpg since new.
Where we can see the car you made? Sounds like you are an experienced car engineer and know how to make a good car, cheap, fast and reliable with amazing seats.
I originally purchased my 2015 Prius C through the Uber car lease/purchase program in Dec 2015. I am one of only 10 people out of the entire program that successfully purchased the car out right after leasing it for 3 years straight. I got $7,000 in rebates, which brought the car down to $18k. Originally, I drove this car part time to pay for the lease payments only. For one full year, I drove for Uber full-time while I was transitioning from one job to another and stopped Ubering on News Eve in 2019. Only a handful of rideshare passengers ever complained about the comfort (people over 6'4"). As the owner/driver, I felt very comfortable driving this car around the streets of the Los Angeles area. Had it been any bigger, I would have been in several accidents. As far as reliability, I never needed to do more than change the oil and tires. In 2022, I changed the interior battery and I still have the original hybrid battery. Comfort wise, I've literally driven 12 hour shifts multiple days a week. When I moved to Texas, I drove it for 1,400 miles and 21 hours with one 4 hour break. It never got uncomfortable. As far as speed, I beat everyone off the line at a stop any day of the week, except for a Tesla...of course. I dont even attempt to beat them. As far as top speed. There's no need to take this car above 90mph. That's just asking for a battery fire. My only issue is wishing there was more trunk space. I always had issues picking up passengers at LAX with 2 large rectangle suitcases. Everyone from China always owned those bags. It's 2023 and I'm on my 8th year owning this car and I'm about to replace the hybrid battery, which is currently at 68% capacity and it still averages 45 miles per gallon. Not bad considering this review is coming from a hater just looking to do a bad review for the hell of it. Whatever
Thanks for making entertaining videos. However, your facts are suspect about the Prius 'C". I get 52 mixed driving summer, 48 in our cold winters, significantly better than the 40 you mention, and without being light-footed.. The seats are fine, and my back isn't what it once was. It's very spacious inside for the size and weight. I notice no unusual road noise. Consumer Reports mentions Prius 'C' as way better than its poorly made sub-compact competitors. Very competent ride for a small car. Had it a year and several times already have found "leftover" street parking between larger cars that no one else can fit into, saving pay lot fees. It corners / handles just fine. Slow acceleration is something I've easily learned to mitigate when getting on expressways. Cruises at 75 with no effort. No idea where you got that info from. BTW, you're even wrong about the turning radius, which you identify as good. Not sure why, but it is actually mediocre compared to some cars / small SUV's I've owned. Overrating turning radius doesn't make up for all the stuff you underrated. Your precious metal stuff, well, no expert here, and you may be right, you may be wrong. Plenty of cell phones in the world, last time I checked, many more than Hybrid Toyotas. Don't all newer cars use them? You sound like you work for Big Oil. I expect to save on maintenance, based on folks claiming 200 -300 K easily. Go get a fast and expensive Audi, and watch out after your warranty is up. Thousands per year, no exaggeration. Price an engine rebuild for those cars.
52 is the right number that is my mileage since new 140k. I drove from Atlanta to Charlotte and was only passed by one car when I was exiting the highway. It sounds like it's really angry doing it but they can totally handle highway speeds.
I am torn between a prius C (Aqua) 2021 with slightly more horse power "edit: than my current Aqua 2013", and a standard Prius 2023 with its AWD and cool looks. I'm going to use it for commute (at least 80 kms a day). Which would you recommend to buy in terms of ride comfort?
i have a 2014 and love it. gets 60+ mpg and drives well. tons of cargo room with the back seats down. i have 4 studded nokian tires and it does better in the winter than 4x4s
Honestly I'm glad you ended that by an advertisement for the usage of bicycles in urban commuting rather than saying there's no point in getting cars that are hybrid because if you absolutely have to use a gasoline vehicle for commuting, then you might get hybrid and try and save on the amount of gas you use
I think, and this is my belief that This guys full of krap! he lost me when he got political. Im posting under my wifes name cause thats what came up and i don't know how to change it, so with that said... I build custom hotrods and have always drove cool cars and also laughed at prius owners untill I bought a 2015 prius c with 239k mi. on it 2 plus years ago to do some long range driving. What a great car! this car is fun to drive, its seating and controls are laid out comfortably. heat and ac are amazing, stock stereo sounds pretty good! it accelerates good for general driving, the brakes are amazing and it handles quite well in the canyons and i've been able to chase down some performance cars, suprises lot of people, and i get 45 mpg. I now have 275k mi. on it ang i'd drive this thing anywhere! Just bought my wife a 2013 prius v with 150k mi. on it and she's in love! great cars!!!
I don’t completely agree with this video; with that said the good and bad that I’ve discovered with my 2014 Prius C: The Good: 1) Excellent MPG 2) Easy to parallel park 3) Low maintenance costs (I haven’t changed my brake pads at 100k miles; the engine braking and light weight of the Prius C helps towards the longevity of brake pad life. The Bad: 1) Uncomfortable seats 2) Road noise 3) Rims/Wheels are too small/narrow at 15/16” that potholes easily put dents/bends in the rim/wheel so you end up feeling the rough drive of a bent rim so often that it’s not worth replacing the rim every few months especially if you live in an area with bad roads. Helpful hint: There is a hybrid fan filter located behind the driver side rear passenger seat that you should either vacuum or take a toothbrush and wipe away any debris especially if you have pets or smoke. This will increase the life of the hybrid battery. Conclusion: Besides dealing with uncomfortable seats and rims that get bent, the Prius C is a very low maintenance, high mpg vehicle that will keep you satisfied if you’re thrifty like me.
I really wanted one when they came out, i like small cars and i wanted a hybrid. But the sales guy at Toyota was really trying to reap us off, so we left the place and ended buying a ford c max. They don’t make the c mix anymore, i still would like a small hybrid, what would u recommend that doesnt suck and at a good price? Thank you
Frankly, I bought the car for the comfortable seat, have had low back pain last 40 years. I routinely take naps in the car on a break when a drive requires >6 hours sitting in a day, and wake refreshed. my 2013 has 142,000miles, no mechanical issues, still 50 mph unless I'm driving over 70mph, and I've been astounding people at home depot for years with how much lumber and supplies fit in this car; I have rental properties I maintain myself - sometimes a stack of pressure treated 12' 2x8 with a flag on the end (hatch secured with bungee), 6x6 beams, prebuilt deck railings, full size floor sanding refinishers, industrial power washers, bags of cement. The limit perhaps less if one's engineering capacity & 3D visualization for packing is not so good. Henry. I did just swap out Driver headlight assembly instead of trying to polish the plastic lens, since I didn't want to revisit that issue for another 140K (live in the north on roads that are sanded for ice about half the year). And I replaced the halogens with 40,000 lumen LEDs, since this is deer country and I'm now 70. I expect I'll have this car another decade or more, as my driving diminishes. But I'm also in the queue for the Aptera in 2024... as a second sports car, wholly off grid transport.
As an owner of a Toyota Sequoia, I want something for the city that doesn’t kill my wallet at the gas station and is easy to park. Wind noise is irrelevant in Bumper to bumper traffic on the Vegas Strip or in Downtown DC.
@@HenrywithCars except you gotta wait hella hours just to drive an extra 100 miles :/ Teslas are amazing cars if you have the solar panels, but it sucks to be limited to a city and unable to do road trips

I have to say, and I rarely post this kind of stuff….but I have a 2013 Prius C. I bought it because with my job I drive a lot. I have NOT had ONE problem with it. Because there is that brake assist thing on the gear shift, I still have yet to change my brake pads! It rides comfortable, and I really don’t know what you are talking about with the “seat issues” you had with the car. Sure there’s some road noise but all of my friends and family have grown to actually like the car. Again, it’s so easy to drive and maneuver. All my kids learned to drive on it. The power isn’t great at all, but you don’t buy a Prius to do zero to 60 sprints. It gets on the freeway with no problem, and I’m not afraid to floor it, because you have to in most cases. They say the zero to 30 is normal for a car, and that’s what you need around town to get around a slow driver or make a quick lane change. It’s like a video game sometimes when I’m driving around town to see how high I can get the mileage. I’ve gotten as high as 60 miles to the gallon in the city and 47 on the highways. I bought the car for under 23K brand new and I knew going into this that the car would be slow and maybe a cheap build but it’s turned out to be a joy to own with no problems. I watch my friends complain about putting over $150 in their tanks and I just chuckle. Anyway, that’s just my opinion really. Funny video though.
Use it during university, this car saved me so much money. I brought a brand new 2013 prius c for $20,000 in 2014. Still work fine now
I too love our 2016 prius c. Had it 5 1/2 years and saved over $6000 in petrol from having a mazda 3 over this time period. And the speed is plenty fast for street or highway driving. Honestly 8 seconds to reach any kind of speed makes no difference for safe drivers who dont wish to kill themselves or other drivers.
Hes on Crack !!
Funny video but Glad this is the first comment I ran into. I put 1,000 miles on my Prius c each week. Love her so much. He’s not lying about the downsides, but 55 mpg and a reliable ass engine… can’t beat it. Lol
we have a Prius C. im close to 60, my wife and I have driven California to Vermont in 5 occasions (started with covid) and we report no regrets si far. We love our prius :)
what a horrible review 😆 this car was well designed and its reliability and low fuel consumption is awesome! Sure its not a race car, but for city is very wise choise.
I have driven this car nonstop from California to Missouri. That’s 23 hours and approximately 1500 miles. This little car is a reliable tank
Hi I couldn't disagree more with. 70 MPH? are you kidding ? try 100 MPH on straight road. I own trim 3 2012 with almost 300K miles on it. I bought this car over 10 years ago to replace my tacoma 4x4 truck to make long distance kitesurfing trips. On average each trip is around 700 miles round way. while seats are not best for sleeping over night, but yes I have done it. I can assure you I have used this car as truck more than my old Tacoma truck, I literally build porch, deck, and put up over 500 feet fence and even gone night clubbing with it, as well as moved content of entire house from Knoxville to Atlanta in multiple trips of course. I cant wait for this thing to break so I can buy Tesla or EV Volkswagen bus when it comes out. Who knows maybe I got lucky and got a good one or maybe the new models are not as zippy as the old ones. As a joke I nick named my car Hummer :) anyways, cheers, I just wanted to share with you my experience driving this beaut for past 10 years. And yes you can even bang in backseat or front seat, its not roomy but it'll do :D
The guy who generated this video is the onlyone who doesnt like this car. He lives in his own imaginary world
And in that imaginary world, EVs most be just as bad and toxic too with all those batteries and electric motors, welp back to ICEs then, thanks Henry.

I own this car and love it. Its compact for city drive and good mileage. The seats are comfortable for me, I'm 6' 1" 100kg.
My mom owns one and I think the seats are more comfortable than the seats in my integra lol
Guys how much miles do you cover with the full tank
@@lashabaramidze436 it is not a big tank. In this cold weather (near 0) I'm getting 45 mpg and the fill ups are usually less than 8 gallons. 360 miles or so.

Love my 2015 C, no problems at all and can go over 75 easily. This is my go to when I don’t want to drive the 8MPG truck. Make fun all you want but soon gas will be over 5$ a gallon and you’ll want one
Exactly I go 95 easily

185kph easy
I drove my Prius C to Colorado and somewhere in between the speed limit is like 85 so everyone goes 90+ .... i drove at 105 for like an hour down a long stretch, people were flashing their lights telling me to slow down! mpg was still like 35
I have a 2016. Never had one problem. I average 50-60 mpg if driven conservatively. It’s a great car. It’s comfortable, quiet, and will go 75+ very smoothly. It doesn’t have quick pickup of course but who’s trying to race someone in a Prius C?
"...it get's slightly north of 40 miles per gallon..." Try 55 mpg.
Exactly, ride it right and u hit the high mpg dude prolly rode it and wanted to accelerate fast in traffic and got a bad mpg rating😂
I have a 2019 Prius C, purchased in 2018. My daily commute is a round trip from sea level to 400 feet+ above sea level over an 8 mile distance, 5 times a week. I live on an island in Hawaii where gas, as of 04/21/2022, is at 6.00/gal. I get 47 mpg+; a full tank of gas is just less than 10 gallons. I regularly get 400 miles with more than an eighth left before each fill in. I have an 8' 6" surfboard that fits perfectly with the passenger seat down. I've also used it to carry items as big as a PA system (EV Evolve 30m). I've also used it on the Oahu freeways - no problem going 70+. It's not a 60's or 70's muscle car (I once had a 1970 302ci Chevelle coup - a classic V8 flexer), but it's the perfect transportation for the times and my needs.

How am I supposed to consider a review valid when I hear 2 heavily biased jokes at the start?
I enjoy comedy and making fun of the absurd, but that's not really appropriate for being objective.
Prius Hybrid Batteries can and are recycled at the end of the cars life, and most of the raw materials are recovered. This dude is so wrong about every point he makes that I assume it's satire.
These cars are bulletproof and share their underpinnings with the NCP91/131 Yaris. There is a reason this channel doesn't even have 1k subs.
Idiots who think an entry level hybrid needs to have the refinement of an LS500h for 20 grand.
This channel is bs
I have 208k miles. It’s very low maintenance, low cost, great mileage, and reliable. What more could I want?
One of the best reliable car in the history, with pushing far their limits beyond your thoughts 👍😉
I've owned a Prius C since 2018 and I love it! It's reliable, affordable, and gets good gas mileage.
The only downsides I can think of are the seat design & the black interior that tends to show dust & it has a texture that is challenging to clean. I just use a pillow for extra support for the seat. This is still a purchase that I'm very happy with.
I don't own the Prius, but the point of the car is to save money and that's all. And if u consider that every car is a box that gets u places , then it's stupidly cheap my guy.
I’ve owned my Prius C since 2013 and had literally zero issues with it.
this is an extremely overdramatic "review". its basic, reliable, cheap transportation. adjust your expectations.
I bought my wife a 2014 Prius C new in 2014. The car now has 85k miles with ZERO problems. The C is for City or Commuter, which the car does great. She averages 45 - 55 mpg and if you baby it a bit, I can get well into the 60+ mpg. For all the things it doesn't do, it makes up for in economy. (I voted for Trump)
I agree with the battery can't be recycled stuff but overall in my opinion you're better off buying a Prius cuz you save a ton of money. I personally own a Toyota priusC (Aqua in some markets) which i imported straight from japan in my home country Pakistan. Here traffic is at worst specially rush hours and still i manage to get 60+ mpgs or 25+ km/l with ease. I daily go to university in this car and i love it! This is a best first car if you're thinking to buy it in your college life.
Most reliable car ever
This is why it's so hated. I own a 2016 Prius c, so I know these cars are reliable.
I have a 2016 Toyota Prius C too. I love it.
I chose the normal prius instead for even more reliability. Theres even less things to go wrong
@@Motorsportsgeek the normal Pruis is slow af😂
@@lillock2401 Gets 50mpg and plenty fast for daily use, in europe they have a 1L and 1.3L version, we get the big 1.5L so imagine it can be even slower lol You obviously need the manual to get better mpg and easier to stay in the powerband over the autotragic.
I am shocked with your views,
I am using prius C from last 3 years,
120kph can be achieved in 10 seconds
My max speed is 160kph
And comfort = 100%

Been driving a 2013 Prius C since 2014. It’s nimble and fun to drive with 50 plus MPG in the eco mode. Never had a mechanical or electrical failure. I plan to sell it and go EV with the Nissan Leaf S 2022.

Ecaxtly what i did to my car..
Much better
lmao i might actually do this
I’m currently driving 2013 Prius Four and love it. I wouldn’t mind at all downgrading in the future to Prius C. My main concern is to save gas money. I had a pick up truck and minivan that used to drink gas till they got drunk. For $5 a gallon, I’d spend $63 to fill up my minivan tank after driving it only 212 miles, and over $100 to fill up my pick up. Of course driving a pick up and minivan is a lot comfortable than driving a Prius. But I forced myself to get used to a smaller vehicle. Once you get used to driving big vehicles, it becomes almost impossible to drive a smaller one. But I was like, why don’t I get a Prius and use the gas money I saved to pay down my credit card bills, or treat myself once a month to a decent meal in a fancy restaurant, especially that I put a serious amount of mileages on my car. Let’s say 6,000 miles a month. Totally worth it.
I have a Prius c and I have no trouble getting to speed and staying there. I also love my seats they're comfy and I have so much room in my seats. I haven't noticed much noise when driving on the highway nothing compared to my mirage, danger ranger or Ford focus. The only thing I dislike about my Prius C is they don't make it anymore. I bought it because the hybrid aspect so I don't have to use as much gas especially nowadays. Also Prius in general last at least 500,000 miles so I'd rather have that than a car that'll only last me maybe 200,000. They've been using the same cabs in my town since they started the company and they're all Prius(s?). The guy even told me himself they don't start to see issues with the car until after 500,000 miles so if I treat my car nice it could last a lifetime
Homie it's not a performance car. Don't compare it to one
People who miss the point of cars like this, should not review cars like this, they are built for a reason for a certain customer base, they are not sports cars, or luxury saloons. You are not really funny if comedy was your intention.
You’re Trippin this is a reliable ass car
As a Prius c owner I can tell that you don't know what are you talking about.
No body talks about the Chevrolet spark. This is prove that people are easy to manipulate with social media.
As a non-Prius C owner, I don't know what you are talking about
@@HenrywithCars I own a prius c, and I can tell I know.
That's great
don't agree with him, he drives a raptor.
oh and after 10 year I bought a recycled traction battery with a lifetime warrantee . You the writer are beyond inaccurate. Write tor Fox or The Post.
Yea, I get it. It's not exactly the coolest car, but the hate in your heart is too real to be based on that alone. Who hurt you? And did they do it with the Prius C, or does that person just drive one? Either way, I can see you're hurting, and I hope you find the healing you need. If you somehow find yourself forced to drive a Prius C again, try dropping in to the B gear on acceleration, controlled maneuvering, and anywhere engine braking feels right. Does it make a huge difference? No. No, not much. Does it help a little, though? Sure. Why not? If nothing else, the act of shifting has a sporty placebo affect. You may not end up liking the car anymore than you already don't, but you probably won't back slide into a full relapse of your Prius C anguish, once the nightmare ends. God speed solider.
Great info
This & the comments only encouraged me to buy a Prius c!
I'm heading out this morning to replace my front and rear shocks and struts. Cost me $260. "Four" trim. Nav, heated seats, moon roof. I came from a 69' F-250 and a '69 VW Beetle so this car is awesome to me. Thanks for the video, although my opinion differs. 🤙
I love my prius c …265 k miles going strong !
How’s the battery holding up?
@@lillock2401 270k right now still going strong lol i just gottta change the radiator fan
Good for gig app delivery drivers. We need good fuel economy. And good parking. And Toyotas keep on going.

Agreed, that’s why I purchased a Ram 1500 instead
Well I already have a severe spine injury and I gotta say I love the seats.
lol. All video production without any content substance. While I do not own a Prius C, I do know people who do and have driven one on a 400km roundtrip with 4 other people. Sorry to be blunt but it makes sense that you've had this channel for so long yet have not grown at all.
Y’all this man is not based. I have my 2015 Prius C and it’s been the best car. Ayo chill with the clickbait
Also, I DROVE MINE ACROSS THE UNITED STATES.
This guy gives off a mid 1980's vibe, it's kinda refreshing if you ask me.
Just did 600 miles in three days in my Prius c
Did up to 90 on the freeway for hours was just fine
90000 miles it’s a pretty nice car
You need to flog it to get past 60
And it cruises best between 70 to 80
Did 600 miles and it costs 50 bucks in gas
Two up
Ain’t bad
Max speed is 90 mph but you don’t need to go that fast on US highways
Most traffic is going 70 to 80 at most and this car can handle it
Going over 70 may be ticket territory though
The most useless review to ever exist, the level of biasness this guy has is insane. Having a prius C from more than 3 years and it's pretty comfortable and not underpowered in any way. It's excellent for driving in the town and gives excellent fuel efficiency. Idk what this guy is comparing a budget car to
I ❤️ Prius c!! This guy is misleading
I love my priest C. I've had mine for 5 years and have been using it for uber and left.
200k miles and no problems I love that tinny car
This video is what happens when you write the script before you've ever got in the car.
"Slightly north of 40 mpg" in the coldest part of the winter, maybe. Mid-to-high 50s in the summer. Best car I've ever owned. And perfectly comfortable (and I'm 6' as well, like the commenter just below.)
It is very easy to beat the EPA rating by a lot in our 2018. Maybe not when it’s extremely cold, but otherwise it’s rare we don’t get above 50 MPG. The EPA rating for our 2018 is 46 MPG combined
@@EdPMur I get 47mpg in the winter and I just got 59.8mpg on the way to work yesterday, temperature in the 50’s.
You just hate it. Unfortunately, most people watching this don't think it's as bad as you put it. The issues to do with waste and rare earth are not peculiar to toyota
I own a 2015 Prius C and the gas savings I've had is great compared to my last three vehicles. As for road noise, I listen to my music loud, so I don't get distracted by road noise. Power isn't great but one going into a Prius-C should know this and know they can turn off eco mode if they wanted to. My only caveat is the roof molding which has to be replaced and for most people, the car battery is not the easiest to replace (thank goodness for AAA) to have the car towed to the dealership but it did last me a good six years before I needed to have it replaced. But if anything, I am loving the gas savings and not having to spend nearly $200 a month on gas anymore since I got this car is great. And yes, I also ride a bike.
I'm very old fashion, but I LIKE road noise. Normal car noise is fine to me, keeps me awake on long car rides when an overly comfortable seat and overly quiet car would be a straight up danger.
Thumbs up for being hilariously funny, though I am buying a Prius C myself. I don't think it's any less comfortable or noisy than any other car in its class. Those issues are typical of sub-compacts.
Each to his own... Glad you got a laugh though!
I traded in a audi for a one year old Prius. It doesn't have all the gadgets. However the only thing i miss is the speed and heated seats. I average about 65-60 on gas. Lol $20 for 400 miles of range sounds better than $55. Whats gas hikes???? If you want speed and luxury this isn't the car. Reliablity and efficiency is the theme of this car.
I agree about the seats, so i bought a seat cushion, helps a lot. The sound system isn't the best. But I love the fact that its economical, easy maintenance and gets me into small spaces. Overall a good reliable car.
I have a 2012 Prius c that I use as my daily commuter this dude has no idea what he's talking about it's comfortable as hell and most certainly do over 70 mph I regularly have it up to 80-85 on the interstate and I'm not sure what the hell he was driving or how he was driving but I'm usually pinging around 52 miles to the gallon
Cringeworthy jokes, Henry. I didn't buy the car for politics, I bought it because I live in a city where it's mostly parallel parking (smaller cars = more marking spots), and fuel economy is important.
2024 and my 15’ is immaculate. Put in some sound deadening, quiet tires, sound system and never missed a maintenance. Only one original owner and I know them. $30 to fill a full tank and last 2.5 weeks with long commutes is a win for me. Road trips are the best. I’ve done several long distance desert drives, and don’t even get me started on the AC! 🥶
Its the best car. He has some personal issues or may be paid content.
Aquarius pisces cancer.
I have had my Prius C for 4 years. I used to drive Infiniti, and I do not feel that the seat is bad at all. Do you know that the seat can be adjusted????
You can't adjust the fact that it doesn't conform to a human spine
@@HenrywithCars I have no prob with the seat and never heard any of Prius owners have seat problem. I bought Prius just purely for driving to work, for my office is far from my house and my route is perfect to save gas. I can buy BMW if I want to, but my time for fancy car has over.

Its a hybrid, easy to park in tight CBD spaces, and has a bigger boot and more cabin space than the Yaris and Corolla hatchback. Great for a first car for uni students on a budget. Its not a performance car, but it'll get you from A-B.

Love these style of car reviews! Great stuff mate
I bought a 2014- 17,200 out the door replacing a car that averaged 25mpg. The gas savings made the car payment. It is the best car buy I ever made. It is not close to my favorite car because it sucks on longer drives but for what it can do it is close to as good as it can get. It they continued selling it with a lithium pack and the ability to go further on battery alone at say 55 before it shut off maybe 30 miles I would say it would then be a perfect commuter car. I've averaged 52mpg since new.
Where we can see the car you made? Sounds like you are an experienced car engineer and know how to make a good car, cheap, fast and reliable with amazing seats.
Why does this guy hate Prius C's? Everyone including myself in the comment section who has it knows how great of a car it is
You can’t convince me this isn’t You Suck At Cooking’s second channel
Thanks Bella! I'll take that as a compliment :-)
I originally purchased my 2015 Prius C through the Uber car lease/purchase program in Dec 2015. I am one of only 10 people out of the entire program that successfully purchased the car out right after leasing it for 3 years straight. I got $7,000 in rebates, which brought the car down to $18k. Originally, I drove this car part time to pay for the lease payments only. For one full year, I drove for Uber full-time while I was transitioning from one job to another and stopped Ubering on News Eve in 2019. Only a handful of rideshare passengers ever complained about the comfort (people over 6'4"). As the owner/driver, I felt very comfortable driving this car around the streets of the Los Angeles area. Had it been any bigger, I would have been in several accidents. As far as reliability, I never needed to do more than change the oil and tires. In 2022, I changed the interior battery and I still have the original hybrid battery. Comfort wise, I've literally driven 12 hour shifts multiple days a week. When I moved to Texas, I drove it for 1,400 miles and 21 hours with one 4 hour break. It never got uncomfortable. As far as speed, I beat everyone off the line at a stop any day of the week, except for a Tesla...of course. I dont even attempt to beat them. As far as top speed. There's no need to take this car above 90mph. That's just asking for a battery fire. My only issue is wishing there was more trunk space. I always had issues picking up passengers at LAX with 2 large rectangle suitcases. Everyone from China always owned those bags. It's 2023 and I'm on my 8th year owning this car and I'm about to replace the hybrid battery, which is currently at 68% capacity and it still averages 45 miles per gallon. Not bad considering this review is coming from a hater just looking to do a bad review for the hell of it. Whatever
The prius c air conditioning works very good even in the hottest of the days.most reliable hassle free car ever
Thanks for making entertaining videos. However, your facts are suspect about the Prius 'C". I get 52 mixed driving summer, 48 in our cold winters, significantly better than the 40 you mention, and without being light-footed.. The seats are fine, and my back isn't what it once was. It's very spacious inside for the size and weight. I notice no unusual road noise. Consumer Reports mentions Prius 'C' as way better than its poorly made sub-compact competitors. Very competent ride for a small car. Had it a year and several times already have found "leftover" street parking between larger cars that no one else can fit into, saving pay lot fees. It corners / handles just fine. Slow acceleration is something I've easily learned to mitigate when getting on expressways. Cruises at 75 with no effort. No idea where you got that info from. BTW, you're even wrong about the turning radius, which you identify as good. Not sure why, but it is actually mediocre compared to some cars / small SUV's I've owned. Overrating turning radius doesn't make up for all the stuff you underrated. Your precious metal stuff, well, no expert here, and you may be right, you may be wrong. Plenty of cell phones in the world, last time I checked, many more than Hybrid Toyotas. Don't all newer cars use them? You sound like you work for Big Oil. I expect to save on maintenance, based on folks claiming 200 -300 K easily. Go get a fast and expensive Audi, and watch out after your warranty is up. Thousands per year, no exaggeration. Price an engine rebuild for those cars.
52 is the right number that is my mileage since new 140k. I drove from Atlanta to Charlotte and was only passed by one car when I was exiting the highway. It sounds like it's really angry doing it but they can totally handle highway speeds.
I don’t get how he is so wrong on what he says about the seats
The seats are the best thing about this car(I mean it)
wow dude i really enjoy the style choices with this video. it kind of reminds me of a section from top gear
I am torn between a prius C (Aqua) 2021 with slightly more horse power "edit: than my current Aqua 2013", and a standard Prius 2023 with its AWD and cool looks. I'm going to use it for commute (at least 80 kms a day). Which would you recommend to buy in terms of ride comfort?
Someone's been watching a bit too much Top Gear 😂
i have a 2014 and love it. gets 60+ mpg and drives well. tons of cargo room with the back seats down. i have 4 studded nokian tires and it does better in the winter than 4x4s
Honestly to enjoy the car seats you have to be short ☹️ I’m 5’2 and I have no issues dealing with comfort
Ive gotten my 2016 Prius C up to 113 MPH and i can get to a 109 regularly. I agree with the seats
That white boy on shit that car more comfortable than my Peugeot and lancer
Honestly I'm glad you ended that by an advertisement for the usage of bicycles in urban commuting rather than saying there's no point in getting cars that are hybrid because if you absolutely have to use a gasoline vehicle for commuting, then you might get hybrid and try and save on the amount of gas you use
This guy is full of it
Getting myself one of these for Uber and Doordash. Seems like a perfect little around town car to me.
I think, and this is my belief that This guys full of krap! he lost me when he got political. Im posting under my wifes name cause thats what came up and i don't know how to change it, so with that said... I build custom hotrods and have always drove cool cars and also laughed at prius owners untill I bought a 2015 prius c with 239k mi. on it 2 plus years ago to do some long range driving. What a great car! this car is fun to drive, its seating and controls are laid out comfortably. heat and ac are amazing, stock stereo sounds pretty good! it accelerates good for general driving, the brakes are amazing and it handles quite well in the canyons and i've been able to chase down some performance cars, suprises lot of people, and i get 45 mpg. I now have 275k mi. on it ang i'd drive this thing anywhere! Just bought my wife a 2013 prius v with 150k mi. on it and she's in love! great cars!!!
4:24 now do the oil industry
Knowing these things, why did you buy the car?? Unfortunately you are not as funny as you think you are.
I don’t completely agree with this video; with that said the good and bad that I’ve discovered with my 2014 Prius C:
The Good:
1) Excellent MPG
2) Easy to parallel park
3) Low maintenance costs (I haven’t changed my brake pads at 100k miles; the engine braking and light weight of the Prius C helps towards the longevity of brake pad life.
The Bad:
1) Uncomfortable seats
2) Road noise
3) Rims/Wheels are too small/narrow at 15/16” that potholes easily put dents/bends in the rim/wheel so you end up feeling the rough drive of a bent rim so often that it’s not worth replacing the rim every few months especially if you live in an area with bad roads.
Helpful hint:
There is a hybrid fan filter located behind the driver side rear passenger seat that you should either vacuum or take a toothbrush and wipe away any debris especially if you have pets or smoke. This will increase the life of the hybrid battery.
Conclusion:
Besides dealing with uncomfortable seats and rims that get bent, the Prius C is a very low maintenance, high mpg vehicle that will keep you satisfied if you’re thrifty like me.
I really wanted one when they came out, i like small cars and i wanted a hybrid. But the sales guy at Toyota was really trying to reap us off, so we left the place and ended buying a ford c max. They don’t make the c mix anymore, i still would like a small hybrid, what would u recommend that doesnt suck and at a good price? Thank you
Frankly, I bought the car for the comfortable seat, have had low back pain last 40 years. I routinely take naps in the car on a break when a drive requires >6 hours sitting in a day, and wake refreshed. my 2013 has 142,000miles, no mechanical issues, still 50 mph unless I'm driving over 70mph, and I've been astounding people at home depot for years with how much lumber and supplies fit in this car; I have rental properties I maintain myself - sometimes a stack of pressure treated 12' 2x8 with a flag on the end (hatch secured with bungee), 6x6 beams, prebuilt deck railings, full size floor sanding refinishers, industrial power washers, bags of cement. The limit perhaps less if one's engineering capacity & 3D visualization for packing is not so good. Henry.
I did just swap out Driver headlight assembly instead of trying to polish the plastic lens, since I didn't want to revisit that issue for another 140K (live in the north on roads that are sanded for ice about half the year). And I replaced the halogens with 40,000 lumen LEDs, since this is deer country and I'm now 70. I expect I'll have this car another decade or more, as my driving diminishes.
But I'm also in the queue for the Aptera in 2024... as a second sports car, wholly off grid transport.
As an owner of a Toyota Sequoia, I want something for the city that doesn’t kill my wallet at the gas station and is easy to park. Wind noise is irrelevant in Bumper to bumper traffic on the Vegas Strip or in Downtown DC.
This poor dude thought this video would be a banger when in reality everyone with this car is in the comments shitting on everything you said
haters gonna hate
@@HenrywithCars nah bro the haters paying $45 max for gas right now lmao. The Prius C is the car for 2022 gas prices
@@SPUTNIK6996 I think a Tesla is the car for 2022 gas prices
@@HenrywithCars except you gotta wait hella hours just to drive an extra 100 miles :/ Teslas are amazing cars if you have the solar panels, but it sucks to be limited to a city and unable to do road trips
@@SPUTNIK6996 it also sucks to be uncomfortable and pay for gas
This man watches Top Gear and Grand Tour. :D
