This Prius I recently got is easily the largest car I have ever owned. The interior space is bonkers.

I never saw the inside of a V but I imagine it could only be bigger. WHY would you need anything bigger, unless you needed three row seating or a load bed that is just THAT big? Drop the seats in a regular Prius and the load bed is at least as big as a Subaru Baja, how much bigger in a V? 67.something cubes, as good as some crossovers.

Is it the lack of AWD that killed it?
