Overview & Reviews

There are no significant changes for the 2009 Toyota Prius.

• Less powerful and agile than other midsize sedans, uncomfortable for 6-foot-plus drivers, a few disappointing interior plastics.

  Peaceful and Content - 2009 Toyota Prius
  By Phillip - January 6 - 5:19 pm

  First owned new vehicle ever. Absolutely flawless vehicle never had any trouble the only thing that needed to be replaced was the belt and the oil and the air filters. I departed my vehicle at 177,000 miles only because I had to upgrade to a larger car. Very sad day.

  Fun! - 2009 Toyota Prius
  By Conway - September 22 - 9:50 am

  So I just got my package 6 Prius two weeks ago and love it! I traded in my BMW Z4 for it so I was really worried about it not having enough power since that was what I was used to but I am pleasantly surprised. I have driven it a lot already, about 1,000 miles and have averaged 45.9 mpg mostly freeway. It is extremely smooth, leather is much nicer then I thought and the keyless go, JBL, navi, back up camera and bluetooth are all amazing!

  Beats the the Civic hands down - 2009 Toyota Prius
  By SteveB - August 27 - 5:23 pm

  Bought the Prius May 2009 and love it. Had one as a rental car for a week and decided then that my next car was going to be a Prius. Thanks to Toyotas 0% interest, Im not a liar. We are averaging about 46 mpg with mostly interstate driving and some city. I have averaged as high as mid 50s on the interstate while still doing approx 65 mph. I think my wife just has a heavy foot when she drives. Traded in a 07 Civic and WOW, the Prius beats the Civic in every category, especially comfort and performance. I no longer feel like I am driving a college kids car. The dealer had aftermarket leather installed on the seats, but gave me a great deal on this car.

  2009 Prius - 2009 Toyota Prius
  By SJM - May 29 - 12:06 am

  I have nearly 6,000 miles on my Prius so far and have not yet been able to break the 41 MPG average, despite an 80 mile per day commute - this is disappointing as the sole reason for purchasing the Prius was to gain maximum fuel efficiency. My hopes are that this will change as the weather starts to warm up, but, dont you think Toyota would have accounted for cold weather in the MPG ratings? Otherwise, I enjoy driving the Prius.

  I love it - 2009 Toyota Prius
  By Marie - May 22 - 4:40 pm

  I just got my new Prius 5 days ago, and I love it. I have 220 miles on it and I got 53.4 mpg. It is very easy to drive, and I agree you do have to learn to drive it if you want good gas mileage. The next thing is we will have to tow it back to Mi this spring. We usually towed with all four tired down, now we will be towing with a dolly. Every one says you wont know its back there. All in all I love the car appearance and all. I was driving a stick shift before so it really is different.

  An Honest Appraisal - 2009 Toyota Prius
  By Aviator - January 17 - 6:46 pm

  I had been driving a 2008 Mercedes C350 fully loaded until today. Average MPG was 20. Then came along the Prius.The Prius caught my eye, especially in light of todays fuel prices, which are always going to go up. Took delivery of my 2009 Prius today. It lives up to the hype and then some. Averaged 55 mpg on the drive home. Incredible!! Interior comfort exceeds the Mercedes. Interior appointments functional, beautiful and fun. Driving experience major fun. Handles great, sound system a wow. Tons of room, Im 6,1". Superb interstate handling doing 70 mph. An incredibly versatile, functional and fun ride. And that 55 mpg burning regular, just keeps a smile on your face.
