    Hello everyone,

    Im using my prius gen 2 since 2019. Before that i had a civic ek (also great car) then we were waiting a newborn. So we have sold our civic and bought a prius gen 2 (178.000 km). Im still using the gen 2 Prius, i love it . Right now ive done 330.000 km. My wife said lets sell the prius and buy a new corolla 1.8 or 2.0 hybrid (touring sport).

    Tbh I don't want to spend so much money on a new car. Because i am taking care of the prius. I make the oil changes almost every 8.000-10.000 km. I never had any oil consumption or any issues.

    But the car feels old or lets say she is little bored. And she want to tell her family that we have also a new car (or we can afford it).
    But in my mentality i don't want to get debt for something that is not necessary.

    I think this car (prius) is amazing and i think/hope that i will be using 5 more years without a major issues (i said i hope ).

    What would you do if you were in my place ?

    Should i upgrade the car or not .

    Btw still having 4.5L (Summer) - 5.1L(winter) fuel consumption.


    Thank you guys
