2002 Prius Review Summary & Specifications

Toyota offers the Prius as an environmentally friendly car for the masses. It's designed to handle the daily grind on congested roads while it delivers fuel-economy numbers that would make a diesel jealous. Unfortunately, the price for your eco-awareness is mediocre comfort, handling and performance stickered at $20,000. The Prius is not a large car; that makes it easy to park, but you may sometimes feel threatened by aggressively driven sport-utilities.
