    Still new to the Prius family and happly drive my Gen1 (classic), but curious about the EV mode (DIY) in the Gen2 and the OEM EV/ECCO mode in the Gen3 family.
    My son has a 2010 Gen3 and hasn't ever pushed that button. (I said, read you manual or watch the YouTube videos, dah! And report back to me?)
    Well, to my question. Does the Prius C model have the EV or ECCO modes like the regular Gen3 Prius?? I'm looking at a couple coming up for auction and this question must occured to me.

    Yes My new Prius C has those. However you can get almost the same effect by carefully using the gas peddle.
