Using 40% of the gas of my previous vehicle (BMW 328is)

Get the package B with side air curtain.
Detailed review:
Toyota did it. They took all the annoying things about a car and perfected them. The mileage is excellent. It is user sensitive. If you drive like an idiot (tail gating, your foot is either on the gas or the brake) then this car is not for you. The computer will teach you how to drive. There is a coast mode on this car. You just barely touch the gas pedal and the car will become frictionless as the electric motor kicks in. Then you can coast for quite a distance using 0.0 L/100Km. This car has excellent acceleration and is really quite nimble.
