For efficiency and arguably aesthetic, a $28,000 Prius 2023 is a much better choice than a $39,000 Model 3. The amount of time it takes to break even on any fuel saving is probably longer than the life of the vehicle. To get to about half the range of the Prius, you can also dole out an extra $8,000 on the long range version.
- kcb 3y agoA base Prius is not nearly as well equipped as any Model 3. That's if you could even get a dealer to sell you a barebone base model at MSRP. It's really not worth comparing unless you at least option up the Prius.
- bugbuddy 3y agoI beg to differ because the fit and finish on a base model Prius is head and shoulders better than the base Model 3. The much greater reliability cannot be overstated. After 200,000 miles a well maintained Prius has no worries about $20,000 replacement battery cost like a similarly driven Model 3.
- kcb 3y agoA base model Prius has a pretty econobox interior and finish on a modern Model 3 is fine. People buy cars based on features.
