 I  took one test drive and knew this was the car for me.  Several years ago we drove a Prius hybrid rental and liked it, but it wasn't anything special.  As soon as I started driving the 2016 Prius I was enjoying the ride, even in rush hour traffic.  It handled easily, provided a smooth ride, easily kept pace with traffic, both slow and fast and was quiet.  I bought it that night.  The gas mileage is exceeding what I was expecting for combined street and highway driving.  Even my husband can drive it.  He is 6' 5" and the joke has always been we had to try on cars rather than picking the one we wanted, we had to take the one that he could   get into whether it was comfortable or not.  Even with the moon roof, his head does not bump the top of the car.   I can get 3 dog kennels in the back and still have room for luggage.  AND it also fits into our garage even with the full size van, freezer and  storage in the front part of the garage.
