    You can see that the body rigidity is better than the previous Prius.
    Handling also seems to be very good.
    The engine noise is a little loud.
    The body design is excellent.💫💕

    • @aluisious
      @aluisious ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The engine noise doesn't bother me. A Prius is a commuting car used in traffic. Car reviewers floor cars all over the place because it looks and sounds exciting, but that's not the way the car will be driven 99% of the time. I expect the Prius will be very quiet in realistic use and if it makes a bunch of noise when you floor it up a ramp, whatever, that's just amusing.

    I wonder how firm must be the grip on the steering wheel so that the adaptive cruise control can detect that you are holding it? is it
    capacitive and it detects a touch.. or you must squeeze or wiggle the steering wheel? Can I just rest one finger on it ???

    • @aluisious
      @aluisious ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Toyota systems detect a torque acting against the automatic steering system and interpret that as the driver holding onto the wheel. There is a video of a guy who drove from San Diego to Portland in a RAV4 and looped a ratchet strap around the side of the wheel and as far as the car knew that was him holding on.
      I drove from Corpus Christi to Austin, about 2.5 hours, and I found it relatively comfortable to hang onto the wheel with a couple fingers with my elbow on the center rest to let the system know I was still there.
