Driving the future

Date of Review:  Oct 7, 2000
The Bottom Line: A noteworthy pioneer, but more recent hybrids drive more like normal cars.
Review: Purely electric cars have not worked. They must be recharged too often, and recharging takes too long. The battery packs are so large and heavy that they severely harm the performance and functionality of the vehicle.

For these reasons,...

Meet George Jetson!

Date of Review:  Sep 2, 2000
Review: The car of the future has arrived. The Toyota Prius is a hybrid car, running on both electricity and gasoline. With the price of gasoline skyrocketing, this car has been released at the perfect time.

In comparison to other Toyotas, the...

The future is bright green!

Date of Review:  Sep 13, 2000
Review: After reading much about the new green vehicles on the road today and how the EPA is considering changes to current regulations emphasizing a 10% production of electric-only vehicles by 2003, I went out to check out the vehicles currently available...

giddy with delight

Date of Review:  Sep 13, 2000
Review: The bottom line is, after driving my Prius for over 2000 miles, I can?t imagine any car under $50K that would excite me this much, and I?m not even an environmentalist.

This gas-electric hybrid car is a breakthrough in technology, packaging...

Prius Buying and Driving Tips & SECURITY UPDATE

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2001
The Bottom Line: As an owner of both cars, I would recommend the Prius over the Honda Insight for most people. Along with its technological and environmental benefits, it is very practical.
Review: UPDATE: After 2 years of ownership, I still marvel at the technology behind this car and enjoy driving my Prius more than ever. I also now own a Honda Insight -- another hybrid marvel and a FANTASTIC car, if only for specific lifestyles.

Once you read this you will be an expert!!!!!

Date of Review:  Sep 2, 2001
The Bottom Line: I recommend the Prius for its many Pros for both mankind, nature, and your purse.
Review: There is a myth that cynically environmentally-responsible, electric-drive vehicles, which generate only a fraction of the pollution and CO2 of conventional, fossil-fueled vehicles, are somehow inferior in performance or comfort or safety. That is...

Stylish, Sporty, and Smart

Date of Review:  Aug 16, 2000
Review: It's not even 2001 yet, but Toyota's newest hybrid electric/gasoline 4 door sedan priced at $19,995 (plus destinations charges) hits the road today.
