My work is 30 miles away. Depending on how I drive, I can make it all the way on a full charge. I also get to charge my car at work for free. The longest I have gone without having to buy gas was 4 months. I'm pretty happy with this car. ☺

Make sure you don’t go more than three months without running your engine or the gas will spoil and ruin the engine!

It’s fun to watch what raindrops do on that rear hatch when you’re driving. This car is extremely aerodynamic and quiet. I have the blue magnetism and I absolutely love it. Mine is a limited edition.

I have a 2021 Prime and just drove it from Long Island to Alaska and I'm happy with it. if the battery runs down and the gas engine kicks in just hold the HV/EV button down for a few seconds and it will charge your electric battery up to 80%.

My buddy has a 45 mile round trip commute and says he gets 95% of it in EV by using the gas at the stop signs and lights. After he gets up to speed he goes into EV mode. Pretty cool.

Isn't that the opposite of how you want to use it? Hybrid is best for stop and go, gasoline for highway constant speed. not challenging you, just asking seriously

@@bennri This is a plug in hybrid with only 25 miles of pure electric. He get's 45 miles of mostly electric because he uses the gas to get the car up to speed before switching back to electric only. The amount of electric used to get the Prius up to speed is a big drain on the battery. Hope that helps.

I doubt it makes any difference. Acceleration is what uses most of your gas/electricity. The engine consumes more gas when it’s under load, if that makes sense.

I owned a Hyundai Ioniq plug in, the reason why it’s less efficient is because it has no heat pump so anytime you run the heat the has engine turns on. You cannot lock it out. During the winter months this is a pain since I am unable to preheat the car when plugged in. The Kona and Niro plug in also have no heat pump. If You want to use EV only you can just don’t turn on the heater for anything,

I totally understand that this car is the reason why Toyota is pretty much the hybrid car leader at least for the "value brands." However, this styling is just not attractive inside or outside. I hope that a Camry Prime is developed with the electric motor in the rear. JMHO.

Trying to get my head around the prime, I heard it mentioned that it can run as a hybrid. Does that mean that when running the ICE motor it is also charging the battery?
@SngGenius

Yes it can charge in hybrid mode,but even better you can charge it continuously by holding the HV/EV(@5.22 in the video) for about 3 seconds.Then you are in 'charge mode' so the engine will keep turn all the time!

You can force it to charge the battery but that suck the performance badly , and it will consume more gas. So not worth it unless you need to climb a mountain.

Very less cargo . You need small bucket . Not spear tire . It good if you drive car only 15 km in whole life . When it’s on high way it’s consumed double amounts of gas . Pick is very less some .byCycle can pass you . . 5 hours take just charge 25 miles . And in 15 minutes it finish . Better to by prime only. It’s real experience.

I actually don't mind most of the styling - it's eccentric in a unique, quirky way that appeals to the non-conformist in me. But I can't stand the mishmash of indented black plastic at the grill; it looks like totally random cost-saving, to me. :^/ Aside from the plastic, though, I like the sheetmetal at the front better than on the non-plugin Prius.
