long wheel base

Yes the longer wheelbase will make this problem worse. All you need to do is steer a wider arc with the front of the car. Sort of like a semi-truck but not that exaggerated. Don't start turning as early and let the front of the car go straight a little further into the turn. If it's a really tight corner, start by turning a little in the opposite direction and then turn into the corner. This will move your back tires out away from the corner. Watch how semi trucks and commercial trucks turn tight corners and just do that...but not quite as much.

Remember, Prius turning radius is pretty small... Last time I checked, it is even smaller than BMW 3 series.

LOVE The turning radius on the Prius. GREAT for parallel parking in the city. gets into tight spots really easily. backup camara helps a bunch too.

I do too. I haven't owned a car that turns this well since my Jeep C-J5, and that had an 84.5" wheel base.
