    You really can't compare a Civic with a Prius V, they're not the same type of vehicle. I traded in my RAV4 for the V and it has the same amount of interior space minus the third row seats. My fuel savings doubled.

    The little (E)s are power generated by regenerative braking building up battery power, on the consumption screen.

    I have a Prius V. Civic might get 40+ on the highway. What does it get around town? I get 45 around town and 42 on the highway....

    THe Prius does not default to Eco mode.- it is the Normal Mode. The Eco is even slower and more fuel efficient.

      The EV mode for "Electric Vehicle" defaults to EV at every stop (traffic light, stop signs, etc.) but it will run in EV for 5 min. or so in bumper-to-bumper /slower traffic on level and downhill terrain. After 5 min. the gas kicks in until the battery is regenerated enough for EV to default again. That is why hybrids are so great on fuel versus gas-only vehicles.

    did you mean $27,000? instead of $37,000?!

    • @alenashch69
      @alenashch69 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Actually, he is correct. The Prius V in the video is the Prius V Five, it costs more than the Prius V Two or Three. The Prius V Two would be around $27,000.

    my civic gets 40+ mpg. costs 15000 less. now that buys a lot of fuel

    • @jmaioran
      @jmaioran 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      7k less, and it is really 33mpg you get and a very different sized car, more comparable to the prius hatchback which gets 50 mpg.

      jmaioran that guy probably does mostly highway driving, our rental 2012 civic lx got 49.7 mpg on a 38mile highway trip last year, a 40+ mpg avg is very possible in that car depending on your driving route...the prius makes a ton more sense in the city, we saw 18mpg in deep city driving in the same civic

    • @hunterkyle2021

      No way a Civic with a 5 speed got almost 50 unless it was down hill going 45 with the wind pushing you forward

      @@gennaro4941 Matthew forgot to mention that the Civic broke down and they pushed it for the last 20 miles. 😂
