I take a 2-week driving vacation with my wife and 2 kids in the Prius. It’s not big, but it’s not small.
I ran one Prius into a concrete post at 20mph, and walked away without a scratch (with some bruises from the seat belt). It’s not a dangerous car.
I had a 2010 Prius as a rental last month on a business trip. Aside from the styling, I was impressed.
It seems there’s a whole lot of people that can’t remember what a *SMALL* car is!
datsun 240
honda cvcc
chevy sprint
ford fiesta
opel gt
If you go by interior space, a prius would be a full size family car and a 1986 ford thunderbird would be a compact car.
20 mph frontal crash and the airbag didn’t deploy?
