Toyota’s funky hybrid steps deeper into the mainstream.

#5. Count comfort among the 2010 Toyota Prius's accolades.

While perhaps not in the same league as a La-Z-Boy recliner, there's no denying that the five-passenger 2010 Toyota Prius is a comfortable rig. Thanks to doors that open wide and seats positioned close to the door frames, getting into Toyota 's most popular fuel-sipper is an easy affair. Once inside, we enjoyed the spacious driver's seat with ample thigh and back support, a power lumbar feature, and a manual height adjustment. With the seat lowered, the Prius delivered abundant head room. The comfort ante was pumped up a bit more by the tilting and telescoping leather-wrapped steering wheel and center armrest (though the latter could use more padding). Rear-seat passengers are greeted with the same level of hospitality, as evidenced by generous amounts of foot and leg room, soft front seatbacks, and the comfortable, if firm, bench seat. Rear head room is somewhat limited by the Prius's sloping roofline.
