Recently bought a Prius and was wondering how they handle in the rain. I loved the car so much I didn't even think about it since I live in florida.
It's been raining here in PA a lot the last 4 or 5 days ( thanks Sandy ) IMO it handles rain fine! But go a little too fast ya know 65-70 and go over a little puddle of water on the highway just like in a lot of cars you kinda feel like a little something is going to happen like ya slow down a bit like its holding you back and you hear this big SLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH sound and then your good to go.
Well...I live in the Willamette Valley in Oregon, which means it rains 9 months out of the year, and there's a Prius in every other driveway. I don't find the rain to be any more of a problem in this car than it is in any other car.
Did you buy a regular Prius (aka liftback) or a Prius c? In the future, it'd be better to make your post titles more descriptive. I think you might be able to edit your original post's title.
Handles great in the rain. Also if you use rainX on the windshield you don't even need your wipers. Maybe I just sucked at putting it my old Honda Fit but its WAY better on the C maybe it's because it has better aerodynamics.
