    I know it goes against the spirit of what a Prius is made for but I’m curious how fast a Prius has been officially clocked at (stock and modified). Got any numbers?

    Stock units are electronically speed limited to a number that very many drivers have easily reached, which takes much of the sport out of it. A bit over 100 mph, varying by vintage.
