    Have a 2016 Prius 2 Eco wife says it is bouncy, I have a 2018 Prius prime advanced and she says it is smooth. Could I buy shocks made for the prime and put them on the eco to make the ride better?

    Maybe the difference is due to the additional mass of the plug-in battery?

    the latter’s shocks may indeed be different, to accommodate the extra weight?

    i’d sleep on it.

    or just trade cars? At least short term, it just to see for yourself.
