I'd like to see how the Prius Prime plays out in a number of years in the used market. The Volt forum posts of issues with the temperature sensors in the battery pack, reduced propulsion power, and the coolant level sensor requiring a dealership visit instead of a customer fix is feeling all-too-Tesla to me for the Volt. It seems Toyota has been getting it right with overall reliablility and I think their lithium pack and higher MPG for cross countries is where I want to be. The Prime is ugly, which is unfortunate, but I'm not sure I care. It's efficiency is unbeatable for something with a back seat that can run on regular unleaded.
