The annual WHICH? CAR. a non-commercial consumer magazine, reports this month on the Prius, saying that it is "the greenest petrol car you can buy in the UK". 04-06 models come out well for reliability with no known trouble-spots. WHICH claims it got 54.3 MPG overall with its test car. The short and rather superficial report concludes: "Owners can't get enough of the Prius' feel-good factor. Its low emissions, quiet cabin and good economy around town all appeal." WHICH? asked 53 owners whether they would recommend it to a friend. 89% said that they would.
Wow, that's a major breakthrough lol. Their mileage is nearly identical to that of Consumer Reports (44mpg US).
