The Toyota Prius is the best used car according to data from Edmunds.com.

Used? Think Toyota Prius

Another best for the Prius

When it comes to hybrid cars, the Toyota Prius often tops the list of most categories. Most fuel efficient. Most sales, etc. Well, the Prius has added another ‘best’ to its list of bests.

According to Edmunds, the Toyota Prius is the best bet for a used hybrid car.

Based on safety, reliability, value and availability the Prius was chosen as the best hybrid made between the years 2003 – 2008, the ideal range for a used car. According to Edmunds the ideal time to buy a used car is when it is 2-3 years old, but never older than 7 years.

Of course, the Prius didn’t face a whole lot of competition during those years, so this ‘best’ really isn’t much of a surprise.

    As a 2006 prius owner with 129,000 miles on it I can say that it has been a wonderful car. The only thing I have ever replaced is a water pump. The only maintence other than oil changes has been a transmission and raidiator flush at 100,000 miles. I’m still getting a average of 51mpg. Oh and I just put on my third set of tires.
