Honestly...I wouldn't trade my 2009 for a 2010 if someone asked me to do it right now. I know I could get better mpg with a 2010 but I really don't like the new model. That being said, I haven't test driven one yet and if I did I might change my mind but I love the setup in my 2009.
I don't like the way they moved the MFD screen from the large display to the very small, virtually colorless display. I've read alot of comments that the new MID display is difficult to use in terms of FE. I'm sure it takes some getting used to but I'm not a fan.
I also don't like all the bells and whistles they added to the car. I think they jumped the shark on the 2010 to make it more mainstream. Granted, they had not updated the design in several years and it was time to refresh but for me I don't need or want to pay for all the extras.
My 2009 is really a Prius shell on wheels...it doesn't even have cruise...and I love it! If you price out the extras on the 2010 it's insane...sun roof is like $3k more...I know the sun is there...no thanks! They came out with 6 different models for the 2010...I understand the concept...just 5 more models than I need. I have a Prius and a SGII...all I need!
