Three questions about 250 h
Any opinions on resale (2010, fully loaded) in about 2016, since it's discontinued?
Has anyone heard that it is coming back??
Do you get traffic alerts in your navigation?


It is a lovely car, Decided I would like to try some luxury, but my practical side misses my Prius mpg. I knew I'd be giving that up. 250 is great car, for sure but I drive a lot. Thank you!

I currently have both cars plus an RX400h. The HS is a very nice car, it's better than my prius in just about everyday. I do like how the prius since it is lighter in weight. The HS rides better quiter and I feel safer in it, plus it has a trunk which is nice when we go on vacation or shopping. I drive both of them very normal and get around 48-50 in the prius and 32-35 on the HS . If you drives lots like I do it would be hard to give up the MPG. But anytime we go out of town as a family we almost never take the Prius. I love the Tech . Pkg. and the HUD and the radar criuse. My next Prius will have them. We took the HS to destin from south of KC the past two years and it wa awesome. First year we got 36 mpg total with lots of in town and sitting around time. Got 35 the next year with the AC going . Let us know what you do. Once again the HS is a better car all the way around. Oh ya yes you pay for the traffic reports and weather. Nice but not that big a deal when I had it. I didn't car about resale , I love the car. Looked at new ESh but no way was going to spend a
The extra 20k for it. Plus the HS sits up higher and feels better to me. Would I buy a ES heck yes in a minute but not for the price difference . Want to add its nice not seeing another car like it on every street corner like the ES or RX or Prius. While driving to Destin in two years only noticed one or two others

Probably not coming back with the 300h out there. But then it is still for sale in Japan complete with a new grill style.

With the traffic alerts... you'll pay.

And my mileage..... never got below 40 since I bought it.
