2008 Toyota Prius Hybrid Full, In Depth Tour, and Driving Dynamics

Please keep comments to the content of the video, I don't want to hear your opinions on whether you think hybrids are great or a complete waste of time, I'm not trying to start a debate, this if for information purposes only, negative comments WILL be deleted. Sorry, I am mistaken, this car is a 2008 NOT a 2009, but I decided to do an in depth tour on a prius since I have never done one before. THis is also my first time driving one so I show what it's like to drive one of these hybrids.

@timppa600 I've heard you have to be cautious about how used the battery is...if you got a used one it might be a good idea to replace the battery, which I believe isn't too cheap. I don't know for sure though, you should ask someone at a dealership or repair shop.

Haha if you turn on the YouTube captions they can't understand Kyle! It's like Chinglish!

Good, informative video. I'm thinking of buying a prius, used. Are priuses good second hand?

@TuesdayAvenue Thanks for letting me know...learned something new :)

@LauraLou19413 The "B-Mode" is a type of braking gear, in the simplest of terms. You'd only use it, say, going down a very steep hill to save the regenerative braking system.

i know this is a dumb question but because i dont know anythng about these priuses what does the b mean on the gear shift?

Cool technology, it's efficient and reliable, I'll give that to Toyota. It's the drivers of some of these cars that I can't stand; if you don't drive one, you're murdering the planet in their mind. SOME, not all. I've driven one of the older generations, they're sloooow, but quiet. Maybe the new generation is better?

Meh, not for me, but to each their own. Beauty in freedom of choice!

I love the description, "this if for information purposes..."

Honestly, I hate this car, but that's just my opinion.
