What Owners Say

Other/unsure

"The tire is low profile and got a flat driving.on a highway, no abnormal surface. No spare in car, hard time getting right size. Was almost stuck out of town due to damage to inner tire and the rare size of tire. No room for a spare in the car due to design. Not happy with this."

What Owners Say

Apple CarPlay

"My phone no longer connects wirelessly to CarPlay. I can use airplay if connected via usb. It might be that the initial subscription for wifi ability ended and the wireless feature used that, but if so, neither the dealer nor the Toyota website explained this. Additionally, every time I start the car, I have to click on prompts on both my phone and the display which is really annoying because even though I click on them, the wireless airplay still doesn't work."

Anonymous A., IL (2023 Toyota Prius XLE 2.0-L 4 Cyl hybrid)
