Finally comes the real Gen 5 Prius review

I don’t like auto on off headlights either. It’s like, I am still alive, right? I’ll see about making sure AHB is off now, without searching the manual. Thanks so much for the time saved. An older couple said AHB is their favorite feature , not driving in ev, not needing to put gas in, not rear parking sensors, camera, etc? Their absolute favorite thing is auto high beams.

 

If you mean blinding oncoming vehicles, then I'd say they either adjusted their aim poorly or they just don't care, which would put them in the moron group.

 

I have never been a fan of the AHB feature. Had them on a couple past vehicles and I thought it behaved erratically. Either they wouldn't come on when they should or they would not turn off quickly enough and oncoming traffic would flash you.

i find ahb don't come on until it's too dark out. i'd prefer the opposite

 

AHB is in the LE-

 

With our '10, I turned my lights down to parkers-only a few weeks back, when doing a u-turn on a residential street, to avoid glaring in somebody's windows. Then drove the rest of the way home thus.

Can that still be a thing with the new Prius?

 

Turn timer when you turn off the vehicle to 0 seconds and leave the lights on. They will turn on when you go to ready and off when you shut down and open the driver's door.

Each time I drive I pass several people with DLR on and NO rear lights. DRL should make the vehicle safer, not but not if people run them at night with no tail lights... Thankfully, many cars have rear reflectors.
