Easily fits a bike with taking front wheel off. Probably could fit two. Golf bag fits under the screen and only the driver's side passenger seat back folded down, with pull cart.
Fitted 2 roadbikes in Prius Prime with the wheels off and a lot of padding 1 bike I don’t take the wheel off and gear up
Wow. I'll have to try that when I get back later from golf. Very few golf days left here. With the front wheel on, any tips? Like, front wheel first? edit: Donut spare might interfere with front wheel. Will try later.
Frt wheel in first on the passenger side I have di2 (electronics for some)in the dropbar so no pressure on dropbar or by the time you’re ready to ride cannot change gears you’re stuck in whatever gear you were on last No donut spare for me either
Doing a little logging with our gen 3 today; this was the second load, a little over the load limit. it’s not often it’s enlisted for this, but much more versatile than a sedan.
I think I'm going to stick with the front wheel off. I don't think there's enough room for the wheel to drop down in back of the front seats because of the donut. Also, I think it would be more difficult, even if it would work, trying to wrestle it in, as compared with back first. Still, much more room than the MINI, (longer), but the slope of the back takes its storage toll.
Yeah there’s always a moment of truth when you drop the hatch to lock: is it gonna tap the glass? Something very compressible atop the most protuberant point helps reduce the gamble.
We were sedans for decades (a string of Accords), but I really appreciate the hatch, not a truck, but throw a tarp in (as needed), don’t abuse the load limit too far, it’s very useful. the amount moved, with two trips. Just took it real easy on the roads: it was a front yard tree, an Austrian Pine, just went brown this year. Got quotes of $600 (CDN), and $950~, steep and steeper. Me and the missus did it, 3~4 afternoons, with extension ladder, pruning saw, then when it came to bucking it up, got a corded-electric chain saw (18” Oregon), and a folding-metal sawbuck. Used splitting axe and sledge hammer, for the larger diameter pieces. The twig disposal entailed 3~4 compost bins full, using machete, snippers.
I cut down a leaner that blew down over the driveway last week. It got hung up but I was able to pull it down with a subcompact tractor. Blocked it up and threw the rest in the woods. The advantage of being rural-ish.
