I'd suggest he checks his figures accurately. The Prius is even
further away from its 'official' figures in real world use. Those
official figures have recently been revised downwards in the US after
many complaints. Hasn't happened here yet as they're so rare on UK
roads.


He is a bit of an obsessive, so every litre is logged, so the 60 figure
is accurate for him, sorry about that.

He must be a *very* gentle driver, then, and would get even better MPG
from a similar performance diesel.

Try one, take it for a drive, you will be converted.

I have driven one. Several times. And don't like it. It's a very boring
car to drive, once you've got over the initial differences. The
performance on the open road is very poor and it's far too expensive for a
town only car.
