Advice to buyer: |
test drive it in snow, a must. Otherwise you don't know what you are getting in to. |
Detailed review: |
I own a 2005 Toyota prius, my dream car, so I thought. It handles perfect, except in snow; it hesitates so bad, that it becomes even dangerous. when you accelerate (in snow), it looks like the electric motor for some reason does not allow the gas engine to kick in and hesitates really bad, I can't emphasized enough how bad it is. To the point that it takes such a long time to pick up speed, that is literally dangerous to pull over a highway, I went to the dealer and I hopping is something fixable, but they have to test drive it in snow.
I am very disappointed, I thought I got my dream car. I waited for almost a year for it. Please give me some kind of feedback and/or advise, the problem in strictly in snow
I hope to hear from you soon.
