Toyota Prius

The Prius glides through traffic like a wise commuter's secret weapon, balancing miserly running costs with an unflappable sense of reliability. It's not a thrill seeker, but its roomy cabin, sensible packaging and low-stress driving personality make it a brilliant choice for buyers who value peace of mind over pulse-raising performance.

Range is completely wrong compared to what’s shown. In reality you can only rely on about 60% of the distance. The boot only opens for whoever has the key? That’s a massive headache for my work.

It is a super comfortable car with a charging from 10-80% in less than 20 minutes. This car is also a very economic car as it is fully electric.
