I know for a fact you can neutral-drop a prius.
I know it's not exactly the same, but I was a teenager and curious, and you can rev them and shift into drive with some heel-toe finesse. Not sure if this works on the newer ones, this one was an early 2010s model.
- kstrauser 1y agoThank you for performing the experiment I didn’t even know I wanted to know the results of before now.
- MSFT_Edging 1y agoI performed many experiments on that family prius and with complete honestly, my experiments weren't even in the top ten worst things that car survived. Trees, multiple motorcycles, final destination esque road debris, an accident that should have totalled it if not for an insurance mistake, leading to repairs worth more than the car. Three teenage drivers and two adult drivers with heavy feet. Not to mention many many hardware store runs hauling various sacks of yard materials, baby trees, lumber, etc. My favorite times were rallying on compacted un-plowed snow. The thin tires and light weight meant it absolutely shredded. It's my opinion that the Toyota Prius is one of the greatest vehicles ever built and they should be respected and feared.
- kstrauser 1y agoThat's an amazing testimony to its grit. I could stand to hear more of those stories over the appropriate beverage.
