The 2003 Toyota Prius, a hybrid-electric vehicle, is unchanged.

• Marathon fuel efficiency, roomy and comfortable interior.

• Quirky looks, no standard CD player, no fold-down rear seat, more expensive than most other frugal economy sedans.

  Beware Prius - 2003 Toyota Prius
  By FMjustice - June 5 - 10:00 am

  Has a maintenance requirement that Toyota fails to disclose except in the fine print in the manual. The car must be run for 30 minutes at least every two weeks or both the 12 volt and hybrid battery may deteriorate. Upon being asked, Toyotas staff informs one that failure to comply with the requirement may result in the warranty on the hybrid battery (for which they will not disclose the replacemet cost) being voided. Honda, at least, gives you a month on its hybrid, and does not threaten to void your warranty. We also experienced an exploding tire and have never achieved the advertised gas mileage.
