Favorite feature:	Electric mode. I've never driven such a quiet car.
Least favorite feature:	Upholstery. My old car had an all leather interior.
Advice to buyer:	Test drive it, several times and for a good period of time. Get used to it and you'll never go back to a regular car.
Detailed review:	If you want great gas mileage PLUS a car with the lowest emissions PLUS power PLUS a midsize car with cargo space...this is the car! It drives just like a regular car, but you'll find you will be driving much more conservatively just to see how high you can push your mpg. The car had plenty of power going up hills. I could even pass cars going up hill. Great air conditioning. The seat is a comfortable height and the steering wheel is far enough away to be comfortable. Very sensitive handling. Driving this car is so relaxing, especially in slower city traffic when it is in electric mode because it is so quiet.
Also considered:	2005 Saturn ION
Vehicle purchased:	2005 Toyota Prius
