Other Choices:

The 2009 Toyota Prius dominates the highly fuel-efficient compact car class, but it does have a couple of interesting competitors. The Volkswagen Jetta TDI is a 50-state-certified clean-diesel vehicle that delivers excellent fuel economy and is more fun to drive than the Prius. And in the SportWagen body style, the Jetta is even more spacious and versatile than the Prius. The Honda Civic Hybrid approaches the Prius' fuel economy numbers, but has a little less interior room.

    2008 Prius

    This the worst car I have ever drove in the winter and on wet roads. The traction control needs a switch to shut it off. I have almost been rear-ended a couple of times.

    while not an owner, having driven the prius on a couple of occasions, i have to say it is impressive to a point. that point is passed when it comes to navigating wet roads. things feel quite "loose" - as if losing control is a distinct possibility (and not because there is any overly aggressive driving mixed in)
