I realize this is not seeing a. vehicle at its best, but it is loud, bouncy, and plasticky. Overall a surprisingly crappy car.

dat road noise

The interior in general is really crappy. Though it is surprisingly roomy and decent for hauling crap.

I don't hate the Prius interior. The seats are comfy enough and it's fine for what it is; essentially a compact car. Less loud than my Subaru, for sure.

What, you’re surprised that cabs aren’t done up in soft Corinthian leather?

I took my first two cab rides last week in about 10 years. One Sienna, on e Prius V. Equally crappy in their own way, but the Ethiopian cabbie raved about his 42mpg average that week, and how much cheaper it makes it for people who run commercial vehicles (he was an owner/operator or whatever the cabs call the equivalent). I was mostly amazed that taxis all have TV and credit card swipers now. Anything to help you avoid interactions with the driver, I guess.
