    I've heard that the European Prius has a more "BMW" like steering feel? Is there a way to recalibrate the US Prius steering?

    They get different wheels and tires in Europe. Ours are 185/65R15; Europe gets 195/55R16. I think the European tires might be more responsive to steering input and that would give the steering a better feel. I had not heard there is any difference in the steering system its self, there might be though.
