Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Prius?
I like the way it handles. The ride is smooth and relatively quiet, and it doesn't pollute nearly as much, or perpetuate Big Oil's hold on the American people.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Prius?
The multi-function touch screen is too much. I'd frankly prefer some buttons to work the climate control.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Prius?
Fuel economy, interior space, hatchback

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Prius?
Needs improved seats (adjustability, comfort & materials). Handling stability is fair at best.

2006 Toyota Prius Review:
It's clear that Toyota spent all of their time and money for the technology platform, because the interior is spartan with uncomfortable seating, and short-lived materials. Handling is vague and disconnected, but the car is a perfect transportation appliance.
