That must be a funny comparision. registry cleaners review

Gonna read it later.

it's interesting to compare both cars, while they have the same auto parts and
performance as a hybrid vehicle. but the prius is still the best between the two because of its mileage and its comfort it provides while on the road.

Charlie, The big question about your new lexus hybrid is what mpg do you get ? Will you make it into a plugin hybrid ?

My prius plugin goes without any gas for 30-40 miles each day. My wife drives to and from work about 24 miles round trip all on electric, at speeds up to 55 mph.

Can't save i've tried a honda or a toyota but my lexus hybrid car hasn't had any problems at all.

this needs a new update,

Prius continues to outsell honda 3 to 1

Prius is testing a plug-in option, Honda plays with fuel cells for 1 millioin and only leases they to a few for $600 a month.

Honda makes a dirty version and clean version hybrid, they only sell the clean version where they have to, the clean car policy states.

Honda stopped making the Insight (less than 500 a year sold) as well as the accord hybird.

I always get way more than the EPA estimated mpg. If you drive like you care you can get great mpg. A few hypermilers push the limits and add 50 lbs of air to the tires as well as drive very fast then let the car coast and slow down. That doesn't seem safe and smart.
I drive at the speed limit of below by just a few mpg.
I keep the air in the tires at spec.
Most important I let up just a tiny bit after I reach speed and the mpg jumps to double or more. It's called being aware of the vehicle and CVT transmission. You no longer drive like you have an egg under your foot but drive smarter.
Also keep air conditioning on low fan speed and temps of higher yet comfortable. Not like some who alwys have it full blast and on 50 degrees.
Also no fancy big rims and wide tires, they are losers.

I used to own a mild hybrid Honda civic. It's ok but not half the car the Prius us. Here are a few reason why.
-The honda can't run on electric alone, the prius can.
-The prius ICE gas engine runs in the otto cycle making less pollution.
-The Prius back seats fold down for big space to carry items.
-The Prius can be come a plug-in hybrid. PHEV
-The prius has a lower C/D Coefficient of Drag .26 vs .32 which adds up to better mpg at higher speed or wind.
-The Prius out sells honda 3 to 1, so resale is higher.
-The 03-05 honda air cond condenser shut off when in idle stop. The Prius never does.
-The Prius will have lithium batteries in 08 and get about 90 mpg.
I love my Prius :) and have had 80 mpg on a round trip to work and back of about 40 miles. The best Honda mpg I got was 74.

I think you're pretty safe either way - both Honda and Toyota make great cars. I've heard that the prius is a bit smoother in the transition from electric to the combination of gas and electric and that the Prius gets a little better mileage albeit not what's advertised on the sticker.

Good luck!

Here's an interesting comparison test that I found between the Prius and the Honda Civic (non-Hybrid model). I would assume that at least some of the Pros and Cons would be applicable:

Here's another discussion regarding the two hybrid comparisons:
