Worth every penny

Spent more than budget allowed but the 2021 Toyota Prius justified every dollar. Cruising at highway speeds is serene, seats are supportive over distance, tech is useful rather than gimmicky. Running costs lower than expected.

Ongoing reliability nightmare

Fourteen months, more time at the dealer than my driveway. Turbo failed at 8,000 miles, infotainment blank at 11,000 miles, persistent vibration they cannot locate. First and last experience with this brand.

Exceeded every expectation

Nervous buying without testing more alternatives but after 18 months: not a single unplanned shop visit. Safety features have intervened twice on the motorway. Comfortable on long journeys, easy to park. Everything you want.

Worst car purchase I've ever made

I cannot recommend the 2021 Toyota Prius based on my experience. Within the first year I've had a transmission issue, an electrical fault that left me stranded, and a persistent engine warning light that the dealer cannot diagnose. Every visit takes the car off the road for a week. I had high expect…

Average experience — wouldn't buy again

The 2021 Toyota Prius has been perfectly functional but underwhelming. The ride is fine, fuel economy is acceptable, and it's reliable enough. But every time I get in I feel like I settled. The infotainment lag is annoying, the interior feels plasticky in places, and I've seen better driving dynamic…

Best car I've ever owned

I've owned quite a few cars over the years and the 2021 Toyota Prius is comfortably the best. The interior quality feels genuinely premium, the ride is smooth without feeling disconnected, and the infotainment system actually works without frustrating you. My only minor gripe is wind noise at motorw…

Ongoing reliability nightmare

I've owned my 2021 Toyota Prius for fourteen months and it has spent more time at the dealer than on my driveway. The turbo failed at 8,000 miles, the infotainment screen went blank at 11,000 miles, and there's a persistent vibration the dealer cannot locate. This is my first experience with this br…

Disappointed — expected better reliability

I bought my 2021 Toyota Prius based on strong reviews and brand reputation, but I've had ongoing electronic issues. The infotainment system has crashed twice requiring dealer visits to reset. The automatic emergency braking has triggered unexpectedly three times, which was frightening. Dealer has be…
