    I know the Prius c is all about the mpg, but did anyone test 0-60 mph in how many second?
    I just did a run on a flat road and it took 11 second to sprint 0 to 40 mph. so that would takes another 5 seconds to reach 60 mph ?! Battery is about 80% full.

    umm...11sec to get to 40mph means you're not flooring it

    if you really need to get up to 60 fast, you should be flooring it, and it should take around 11-12sec

    I'm driving a gen3 but I'm doing 90 atleast once a night. Manage quite a bit faster when feeling it.

    If you need to do it in an emergency it's a good thing to know what the response will be.

    Absolutely. You want as much practice flooring this car as you can get.

    I really enjoy punching it, against a SUV.
