I've only owned it for about 5 hours so far....

I got the Prius V particularly because instead of an SUV or sporty crossover I wanted a bit more of a station wagon feel (not as big as a mini van) that would be long enough to put a bunk bed single mattress in the back (It is). I love the fuel economy and the extra size. I traded in my '06 Prius for this Prius V. I've only has it about 5 hours but think I'm going to love it! I love the Blizzard Pearl. Would have also been happy with Sea Glass Pearl....

Roomy, economical, dependable

The Prius V is the roomiest of all Prius! Although it only gets 40 miles per gallon average, it's extra room makes it super desirable! Highly recommended for families, or anybody!

Very reliable. Lots of space.

Good overall utility. Good MPG like a small car with lots of space like an SUV. Not much in terms of performance but double sunroof is nice. Rear seats slide.

Wonderful Car

This car is a great mix of beauty and the beast. For beauty I can drive for miles and barely see that fuel gauge tick down, and when I shut it off I see those MPGs above 48! For the beast when you put the hammer down this car FLIES!. It might seem sluggish now and then when you're trying to go ECO, but when you need to pass or need some power it provides in spades!

Consolidated a truck & 04 Prius into a Prius V

For a long time I had horses and needed my '01 Silverado for towing. But using it as a daily driver was getting expensive so in '10 I bought an '04 Prius for my commutes. Now I've consolidated my truck and Prius into a 2015 Prius V. I have everything I needed and loved about each vehicle now in one! The Prius V has amazing cargo space for my pets and hobbies, and mine came with heated leather seats and a power driver seat just like my truck. I also get very respectable gas mileage (40-42 mpg). I only marked down "performance" because this is a bigger, heavier Prius and it has the same engine size as its cousins, so its not as peppy as my '04 was. But even still this is a great vehicle for families or individuals with pets and hobbies. Dont buy in to the hype about AWD vehicles... most of us dont need them. You CAN have a roomy family vehicle that gets great gas mileage.

Very good car with lots of room.

Well equipped with lots of room. USB ports . Plug in ports front and back. Rides very well on long trips, and mileage is great. Too bad this model was discontinued in 2017.

Liked the smaller Prius better

This car is very similar to my two previous Priuses but I am frustrated that it lacks two of the features I loved in the others: automatic headlights and auto doors on both sides and the hatchback. All three cars were basic models. I stayed with a Prius for the environment and because both of the others lived to over 230000 miles. I like the extra room of this model.

Most Comfortable and Reliable car

We have been leasing cars since 1988. My first Prius V was a 2013. We liked it so much we got another one in 2015 when our lease expired . This year we wanted to get a new one but Toyota discontinued it. We were furious! We looked at many cars, SUVs, but found none compared in comfort to our PriusV. We are short. Most SUVs required a step stool to get into. Who needs that? Everyone who has been in our backseat says it is the easiest car to get in or out of and the most comfortable to sit in. We get 42 mpg in mostly city driving. It goes up in highway driving. Being a wagon, it has great ?trunk? space. We swore we would never own a car again. But after and exhaustive search, we decided to buy our 2015 Prius V when it came off the lease.

Good, reliable, but with blind spots

Was a fine care; blind spots, lack of a sun roof were negatives. Also the center console was bulky, wish the glove box locked, rear windshield wiper was an obstacle
