Toyota Prius - 2005 Review Summary
Reviewers confide that the 2005 Toyota Prius is the best car they have ever owned. This small size hybrid gets 450-500 miles out of 10 gallons of fuel, making this fuel efficient little car popular with owners who have long commutes. Reviewers also said that the ’05 Prius was roomy and could handle 2 adults in the front seats and 3 small children in the back very comfortably. One feature that Viewpoints reviewers all liked was the back seat that folds down to create a cargo area. On the downside, the hybrid Prius was a bit cramped for tall people and does not get “as good” gas mileage in cold winter months. Overall, this environmentally friendly Toyota Pruis 2005 is a winner!

My husband and I considered the purchase of a hybrid for several years before buying one. The tipping point came in the fall of 2005, after the fallout from Katrina served as a stark reminder of our city's reliance on a steady supply of fossil fuel from the gulf region. We purchased our Prius, dubbed...

Okay, so I thought to myself that maybe a Prius would be the automobile for me. I was wrong. I need something with a bit more power, and it needs to have room. I felt like a clown in that car. Yeah it's great on gas mileage, but i cannot extend my legs and drive comfortably in the vehicle. ...

Everyone that I talked to when I first bought my Prius asked me if I thought it was dangerous to drive such a quiet car. The first time someone asked me that, I was taken aback, but the next time someone did, I asked them back "Wouldn't it be nice if all cars were this quiet?" Think of the city traffic that would be quieter! If everyone drove hybrid vehicles and then someone invented the V8, there would be an uproar from people about noise pollution!
Speaking of pollution, the Prius does not pollute nearly as much as a gasoline vehicle. At least in California, that means that the Prius is...

At first, I did not like the speed display because it's in a different spot than on our mini-van. But now I think it's a much better display. It's placement allows you to keep your eyes on the road more easily than the gauge display... review »

This is a great car. We really get 50 - 60 miles per gallon. It has GPS and other really advanced features. It is comfortable to drive and reliable. We bought it just before the gas prices went through the roof and we couldn't be happier. We routinely get almost 500 miles on a small tank of gas (the gas tank size is variable but it is usually about 10 gallons). You can talk to the car to control the GPS and climate control. The GPS is hugely helpful on road trips to find restaurants and other services or even just basic traveling directions. The sound system is pretty good, too....
