Ive been a Mustang 5.0 all my life, owned 3 of them nothing but problems, bought myself a Prius and im getting a solid 55 mpg sometimes even 60 mpg never had a problem, ! LOVE MY PRIUS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Phin86 😂 Just look at their new Toyota BMW Supra Z4M240i. If they did even a single poll they would’ve seen that absolutely NOBODY wanted that. I hope that Toyota’s inability to read the room is the catalyst to their downfall.
they are one of the best cars on the market! the electric version is absolutely amazing. i've seen some taxis with over 700.000 kms on it! never had a single issue! also, they can do 200, which is pretty impressive for the size of the car
I wouldn't say it's built like a tank. It's built well, but it is very clearly built down to a cost. WHICH, may I say, is not a bad thing considering it was an economy car.
It would be great if you guys did an episode on the technical aspects of the Toyota Prius' power-split hybrid drive system. It's revolutionary and fascinating as I've studied it during classes for my automotive engineering degree as compared to most other hybrid powertrain architectures. I'm sure the system deserves an episode on it.
The Prius C is great! Actually more fun than the Yaris hatchback (which was in a "fun to drive" d-list). And the mileage is genuinely awesome. Sucks that they killed it.
ngl, as a car guy, I'm planning on getting a 3rd gen prius soon cause again, as a car guy, I really don't want to work on my daily outside of the most basic of maintenance. I wrench on my cars for fun. It's not fun knowing you have 2 days to fix whatever is majorly wrong with your daily cause it has to be back to 100% reliable by monday morning.
Well yea true but not just that but gen 1 clearly made a number on it and gen 2 despite the new looks and all clearly still made some hate. But you’re correct and south park even made episode on prius owners and how snobby they are because they got a better clean car then anyone and enjoy their own farts
@@80s_Boombox_Collector honestly i never saw why people hate the styling so much. i always thought it's just extremely bland but there have been uglier cars. THE NEW GENERATION HOWEVER IS A FUCKING EYESORE.
One of the best cars I’ve ever owned. Never even needed a brake job in the 180,000 miles I owned until I was rear ended on freeway and it was totaled. Do the math it’s the first free car nobody wants. 💁♂️
I hadn't considered a prius until I read this comment 3 years ago. I ended up buying one and I loved it. It was totalled 2 years later when I got rear ended by a driver under the influence. I had to get the best car I could with the insurance money ASAP and that happened to be a Corolla. I've been driving this Corolla for a year, and I really miss my prius 😔 so I came back to thank you for not jumping on the hate train.
For the market they occupy they are pretty legit...however, as car people we hate this market. Much rather upgrade to a hybrid Corolla/Camry or hybrid Civic(now the insight)/Accord if you want a hybrid. Much more street cred for those than a Prius.
The Prius C has a nice chassis that's firm compared to other econo boxes. The only downsides are the typical numb, delayed & disconnected steering that's common to most Toyotas and the boring drive train. If it had a better engine and revised steering, it might make for a genuinely fun hatchback.
but why? why does he make such a big deal about that goofy schmuck? The only time i ever hear about post malone is in these videos. i don't get why he keeps bringing up this random nobody.
Prius is a tank, had a 09 with 230k and my wife has a 2010 with 203k before we sold them I currently have a 14 ct200h with 163k. My race car is a weekend car you need a great daily this is it
What if you made merch that had a timeline of all the stuff that always comes up. Dub Dub 2, Oil Crisis, Post Malone birth, when his dad left, first car with pop up up and down headlightssssssssss
Are you overjoyed with it? Especially the GR SPORT package? Can you actually give a vehicle a sports badge these days with a 10+ second 0-100 kph time, and as near as makes no difference 100hp? Not meant to disrespect, to each their own i suppose, just curious why you made that choice over many other possibilities.
My family has now owned a 2nd gen Prius, 3rd gen Prius, and 3rd gen Prius V. All are great cars. Easy to drive, reliable, comfortable, and the electric motor gives good low speed acceleration. Perfect cars for commuting in traffic.
Interesting Prius tidbits: The Prius does not use a typical transmission. Toyota calls it the Power Split Device. The electric motors and gas engine are connected to a planetary gear set which is always engaged, and there is no shifting. It has two electric motors. The large one is called Traction Motor and is the one used to assist the gas engine. The small motor charges the hybrid battery pack and is used instead of a conventional starter when the gas engine needs to start. Things the Prius doesn't have: Starter: the small electric motor spins the engine Alternator: electric motor is used as a generator when it's not powering the wheels Any accessory belts on the engine: items usually powered by an accessory belt are electric Reverse gear: electric motor is used for backing up the car Toyota uses the term "Hybrid Synergy Drive" and I thought it was just marketing gobbledygook, but the more I've learned about the drivetrain in this car, the more it makes sense. There's some amazing tech going on in this car, and it first came out in 1997 (in Japan)!
The fact that Priuses are some of the most reliable car models on the planet means I'd much rather get that than a fancy Tesla that is basically bound to be replaced like a cell phone every 2 years. Toyota is boring precisely because they focus so much of their resources on having rock solid vehicles. That's why they don't add loads of new features, because they want to test everything like crazy to make sure it's reliable and useful before introducing it.
Tesla got less parts and arguably more reliable. With the new battery and shit their releasing you could get a million miles on that battery before it dies out. Just wait till it matures.
@@RoRo-hw3um speak for yourself. Prius is the best daily and quirky in itself. Youve obviously never driven one for any substantial length of time. Only the true car enthusiasts drive priuses.
Their safety is really reliable to I had 2016 Prius three touring model the way it was designed saved my life when I was sitting at a red light and got hit by an 18 wheeler even though the paramedics thought I was dead I crawled out of the vehicle myself just a few broken bones but I’m still alive
Sometimes I turn it on, then go plug my phone in or something, then press the start button again forgetting it was already on, which turns it off again.
Never been a fan of the Prius but I thought this video was great! Made me appreciate it a bit. That 2005 gen 2 model still looks nice and clean visually.
I'm glad you guys made a video about the Toyota Prius. The Toyota Prius is a car that doesn't deserve hate from fools, and it has some rich history behind it. The fools who hate the Toyota Prius so much, are missing out on the cool, rich history and events that happened to the Toyota Prius. In fact, the Toyota Prius is an adorable-looking car. The Toyota Prius reminds me of a cross between a warm teddy bear, and a stubby dog. Even though I think all the Toyota Prius generations are good-looking, I like the second generation Toyota Prius a lot.
Can I just say, if the title "up to speed" was literal and it was about cars getting up to speed and not about the history behind them, the length of this video would still be the same🤣🤣
Prius Gen 3 owner, and I love all sorts of cars. The first car I've legally driven on the road was an 86 celica 5 speed manual, then a 98 malibu, then a 02 focus(don't recommend), then a 6 speed manual 08 wrangler, then a 11 Nissan frontier(do recommend), then an 08 BMW 335xi( nice but too expensive to maintain), then my prius(do recommend). My dream car since NFS hotpursuit 2 came out has been a McLaren f1. Point is you can still like cars and own a prius. They're cheap no nonsense reliable cars. But keep hating them. It'll keep the used price low so I can get more in the furture 😉

I'm glad you guys made a video about the Toyota Prius. The Toyota Prius is a car that doesn't deserve hate from fools, and it has some rich history behind it. The fools who hate the Toyota Prius so much, are missing out on the cool, rich history and events that happened to the Toyota Prius. In fact, the Toyota Prius is an adorable-looking car. The Toyota Prius reminds me of a cross between a warm teddy bear, and a stubby dog. Even though I think all the Toyota Prius generations are good-looking, I like the second generation Toyota Prius a lot.

got my first speeding ticket in this baby * slaps roof *
I'm just as surprised as you are...
Friend of mine got an $800 speeding ticket in a 1st gen Insight...
Been driving a challenger and still haven't gotten a speeding ticket
rumor has it that James flatulents create more torque than the 2020 Prius
TBH I wouldn't be surprised if you were right LMFAO
105 lb/ft and 121 hp. Pretty slow car!
@@JD-hy6yc Best A to B car ever built.
"Matsu Shita battery" seeing James giggle saying that is what makes me love donut media and James. Never change lol.
I love his obsession with post malone
He kinda look like a cleaned up version
"because of the high Californian gas prices"
*Laughs in European*
*Laughs in Indian*
Laughs in iraqi
Imagine low gas prices. This comment was made by EU gang
*Laughs in English*
Laughs in polish
Ha they’re still getting “Up to Speeeeeeedddd” lol
Can I just say, if the title "up to speed" was literal and it was about cars getting up to speed and not about the history behind them, the length of this video would still be the same🤣🤣
That's the point of building a crappy hybrid: fooling you into thinking that EV performance is poor, so you'll stick with ICE vehicles.
Could we have an episode about Caterham?
That's my favorite car manufacturer and I bet that a lot of people don't know it!
Love the show!
2020 getting worse everyday
* donut uploads Prius up to speed
Missed opportunity to upload this episode on April 1st.
"If you see a sick Supra, thank a Prius" that's what she said 🤷
Supra is trash and thats a fact. Prius is better and bmw supra is better too
Prius Gen 3 owner, and I love all sorts of cars. The first car I've legally driven on the road was an 86 celica 5 speed manual, then a 98 malibu, then a 02 focus(don't recommend), then a 6 speed manual 08 wrangler, then a 11 Nissan frontier(do recommend), then an 08 BMW 335xi( nice but too expensive to maintain), then my prius(do recommend). My dream car since NFS hotpursuit 2 came out has been a McLaren f1. Point is you can still like cars and own a prius. They're cheap no nonsense reliable cars. But keep hating them. It'll keep the used price low so I can get more in the furture 😉
No way is this madlad gonna convince me to buy a prius!
Edit: You can do a burnout in these?!?! _OK. .....Mayyyyyybe I KINDA want one as a last resort_
am gonna use "prius" instead of first from now on. 😂
Lemme guess coz no one cares about it :)
Be our trailblazer
@@Slades_Garage 🤣
Ah yes, the infamous performance oriented sports car, the Prius 😂
Love you Donut! 👌
Yes, of course! My dad's 2010 example has a whopping 134 horsepower output from a huge 1.8L *4 CYLINDER*!!! It is SPEEEEEEEEEEEEED
_laughs in Prius TRD_
Nobody:
Me to my friends: “When you get back we’re gonna kiss”
what
nothing
Wha...
Considering my channel is very heavily Prius-based, I feel like this video was meant for me. Thank you.
