My 2012 Prius C sprays the front windshield (and automatically activates the wipers for a couple of strokes) when I pull the W/W stalk towards me....
The Prius C is rated as extremely reliable by Consumer Reports in every category. Their ratings are based on surveys they conduct of their...
That strikes me as saying that insurance is not too useful since you hardly ever use it. There are things in life that you have "just in case",...
I wouldn't try to read too much into the Eco Score. As Yul Brynner, the "King of Siam" once said, "It is a puzzlement". [IMG] It seems to...
If the extra drag of "B" mode causes you to slow down more than you need to, then you need to use more power to speed up again. In that sense,...
I heartily second this recommendation. If you feel yourself getting drowsy then pull over when you get a chance and take a quick catnap. It's...
Nope, only based on how far you've driven since you started the car. That's why it says "from start" just above the MPG number. [IMG]
The fuel economy that's shown for the three odometer views (total miles, trip A and trip B) is based on the distance traveled in each view. So...
Living in Canada and making occasional trips to the US has required me to learn how to switch between km/h and MPH (press the "Trip" button...

When I'm talking about accelerating downhill in the EV-only band I mean that the car is in normal "drive" mode but I keep the throttle application...
That's well under a 10% difference, which is nothing. You can get a greater variation on that just due to the weather (cold temperatures, rain,...
Not convinced this is particularly "rare", but here's a shot of my Prius C in British Columbia's Fraser Canyon last December. [IMG]
Are you careful to screw in the gas cap really tightly each time you fill the car? You should tighten it until you feel and hear a "click" sound....
Very unlikely. These kinds of features often require additional sensors and sometimes different wiring harnesses that have to be installed when...
I hope so... :cautious: I live in an area where there are some fairly steep hills, so it's nice to be able to take advantage of them in that...
I often do this if I'm starting on a downhill slope where the rather paltry acceleration available within the EV-only band is supplemented by...
Of course. I'm just pointing out that it's not really a "low gear" in the sense of a traditional car - it's really just an instruction to the...
