Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

The current car is the 2nd example i owned, the previous one i had it for 5 years it was a totally trouble free ownership, did everything we asked for as a family. The longest trip we dis was to Cologne Germany, 427miles each way across 5 countries without any effort. I found it very quiet on the motorway (Goodyear Efficientgrip tyres fairly good on noise) relax & easy to drive, roomy, reliable, and highly advance drivetrain. The prius i currently own has 103k miles on the clock but drives perfectly, the used price are so good nowadays, it will pay for itself in the overall savings in the ownership within a few years time. The formula of Toypta Hybrid Synergy Drive is staying mostly the same until today, improved incrementally little by little on the electric motor, battery density, aerodynamics, electric components. to me its like the engineers fine tuning the perfect car making it even better every now and then. It is still evolving as its now in its forth generation, if the in house designers can crack the design language of the exterior and make it a good looking car, they will truly have a world beater on their hand. And yes i ansolutely love this car, best vehicle i owned by a long stretch.
