Keeping in mind Anderson
Cooper’s infamous catch phrase, “keeping them honest”, I decided to do a bit of
research myself. I have been looking all
over the web for information on Prius’ competition and which car is the best
hybrid out there.
You can go to Toyota.com
and do your own side by side comparison of one Toyota and 3 competitors, so
naturally I chose to do such in search of the truth!
I chose the 2012 Prius
C, Leaf, Fusion and Volt for comparison and the results are quite confusing! It
seems that the Prius is the least expensive, and there are so many features and
things to keep in mind, there is also a tab that explains the benefits of Prius
over the competition. For someone
seriously trying to compare cars and get the best value, there sure is a lot to
take into consideration.
………If you want to give
yourself a headache – take a look for yourself! Car Comparison
In one posting on
ranker.com, it says that Prius is actually NOT the best car on the market, but
comes in at 4th place! Lagging behind SmartCar, Nissan Leaf, and
Honda Civic GX.
(It’s also called the
Top 5 Reasons Priuses Suck). Talk about
your bad publicity! Why Priuses Suck
US News ranks Prius
& Ford Fusion as tied for the #1 spot.
Hybridcars.com claims
that Prius Liftback is “the #1 selling car.”
Cnet.com ranks Prius in
4th also (Ford C-Max Energi, Chevy Malibu Eco & Chevy Volt all
higher)
Who is credible? How
subjective is this information? Where does one go to get an honest answer??...wonder
in Anderson Cooper knows!

links above to compare and dare to make your own rankings!
