Learned a number of things about my new car, thanks! - One of the features you did not mention is the "charge mode" Press and hold the HV/EV button and the gas engine will charge the traction battery. It will also decrease your MPG especially if you are not travelling at a steady higher rate so use it wisely. If you aren't going to use EV mode to make use of that power you just stored, it is a net loss. - With regard to the menus in the screen, besides pressing the menu button you can finger swipe up to show them, down to hide. - The A/C button on the fob will turn on the climate control for 10 minutes to whatever it was when you shut down so do this within 10 minutes of your planned departure time. This is the same as setting pre-departure climate control (if the car is not plugged in, the doors must be locked when using that feature). Using the button on the fob will lock the car before starting the climate control. The ICE will NOT start, this features uses heat pumps.

That yellow pointing hand stick was unexpected lol

I just can't get enough of your yellow pointer. 😂

Who else actually felt special when Mike thanked us for watching?

Love that little hand

Agreed. Totally made my day!

It’s very beautiful looking car , very tastefully made , I would love to own this car some day , kudos to toyota for making such a beautiful car , love u toyota

It does everything they said it does. Love the mileage I get on it! I’m still learning about all the cool options. I especially love the parallel parking feature

Just bought a Prius Prime, learned a lot from your video. Thank you!

Ty. Love how detailed you get. I really think plug in hybrids are the way to go. Charge at home/work to cover commute, then gas for the long trips. Loved your Honda Clarity tour too. MAY THE LEGENDARY POINTER LIVE ON!

I can not live without your reviews!!!

Keep up the reviews! They are amazing! You deserve so many more views and subs.

One of the most beautiful colors ever and exclusive to this model

Great review. Later in the year I will be buying this baby!!! 2019 that is!

Just subbed. We looked at 2017 prius primes a couple days ago. The cheapest we could find was $22,000 with 55 miles. Of course, I would try to negotiate a lower price. But we decided to wait until the 2019's come out in Feb-March, then 2017's will go down more in price. We are in Los Angeles where everything's higher anyway. Enjoyed the video. Thank you

Luxottica, that's a great price. The car salesman where we saw the Prius Prime for $22,000 called me and said they would go down to $19,500 for that same Prius Prime. I said "out the door" and he said "no." I have a feeling that one's going to auction. They'll be sorry they didn't sell it to me at that price.

Nice review. Thanks Mike.

This is the one........Toyota has got it right here. Thanks.

Wonderful video! Thank you!

Excellent video - thank you!

Nice! Thanks! Have a good one!

This is the car I wanted, but couldn't afford. Settled for a Kia Forte.

My dream hybrid sedan! Amazing job bro.

Still the best reviewer, good job Mike's! My fiance has been looking for a new car, this might just do it. She doesn't need speed, just gas. And question, have you been able to review for VW? Id love to see a review of the golf gti, I'm looking to get one.

Nice review, i am still thinking of getting this car, but still hangup on this and 2018 Chevy Volt. would be nice to also see a review on the Chevy too

Going to buy one tomorrow. Used salvaged title but it's only 16500. Excited

That intro was Claustrophobic!! Lololol.

Love the pointer

Anyone live in Arizona or New Mexico that owns 1 of these? Let me know how the center (tablet)infotainment screen holds up against your 120 plus heat as well as all the rest of the plastic in a Pruis?

Great review as usual. You never disappoint. When you get the chance, can you please review the new Volvo Xc40?! Please and thank you!

Subbed just for mr yellow hand.

What I don't like about the dash is how far away and small that shared instrument panel screen is, and I don't like how the center touch screen goes up about 1.5 inches too high and blocks that panel behind it.

Best car on the market for the price. Best value

Next year (or one after) we should be getting Android Auto since Car Play is available on the 2019 Avalon. Thank God, that huge display will finally get real use.

Samurai Shampoo it'll prolly look the same. I mean the design has a futuristic look to it so I don't see it changing any time soon.. Plus past Priuses barely got refreshed ( exterior changes were very minor)

I wish I got the advanced version. I love the Premium, but the Advanced is amazing. Maybe 2 generations from now :)

@alfmeister13

I got the Premium and I prefer it because; 1. The auto sensing rear view mirror never dims enough when a big truck is behind you. I have another car with this feature and it doesn't dim enough. Flipping up the mirror is a tried and tested solution. This also makes it way cheaper to replace the front window as there aren't any wires. 2. I owned a vehicle with a heated steering wheel and I never used it. Maybe it would be nice for those living in a cold climate. One more thing to go wrong. Heated seats on the other hand, aah! 3. Rear hatch privacy cover. The soft one that comes with the premium is flexible so you can load up the rear with groceries and it doesn't interfere with closing the hatch. It's alos easy to remove and store away. The hard one is like stowing a tripod. 4. I have fog lights on my other vehicle and I never use them. I could go over all of the features but you get the idea. This ad ons are great if you will use them. I save several thousand dollars and got all of the important features that I want.

But when it comes to the Prius. I could ignore the ugly front and back, but the interior with all the white and shiny black plastic look like they are impossible to keep clean. not to mention the lack of andoid auto and voice commands. The ioniq looks so much better, does pretty much the same (minus some features) and is cheaper.

When he was talking about turning on the vehicle, he pulled out the wrong key fob

Are you just done on the original one because the Prius prime looks weird to me

Very high quality and thorough review

Nice car but I bought a Honda Civic I am very happy with it was just considering a hybrid for my next vehicle.

What can I do with voice recognition?

Do you know if there is any difference between the 2017 Advanced model and this one?

Can't find the answer to this...once the 25 miles on EV are driven and the plug-in battery is exhausted, does driving the car in hybrid mode ever recharge THAT battery, or does it recharge only the batteries used for hybrid use? Thank you to anyone in advance.

My understanding is it will charge the battery to some extent but it will not be fully charged unless you plug it in.

There is a half sized A/C car battery that powers accessories and then the hybrid battery. The hybrid battery can be charged from a wall outlet or Hybrid mode. Several videos cover this.

Didnt show rear seats folded down and passenger seat folded down.

Hi

He never showed how he adjusted the Heads Up display!!!

but one thing i hate is the tail lights

Can you make a movie at night on this toyota prius prime?

That yellow pointer though, 😆

Yummy car but too much expensive in Turkey.

It would have been nice to show the radio, and not just say that the car has one. Looks like a real pain to tune.
