Who else has gone 100 mph in their Prius?

Shortly after the run away prius story i took mine on I75 with very little traffic and got her up to 90 a and held the start button and it went out of gear then did it again and held it in neutral with same results.after that i have never gone more than 3 or 4 miles over the speed limit.Im to old for that crap.

 

Driving the Prius 2010 on a German Autobahn... | PriusChat

4.5 hours driving the Autobahn between 93MPH (min) and 118MPH(max). Averaged 39MPG. It's a good read.

 

The times that I attempted maximum speed the Prius' governor prevented me from going faster than 180 km/h (112 mph) indicated or 168 km/h (105 mph) true speed. The Prius is amazingly stable at top speed and there is no white knuckled clinging to the steering to keep the vehicle in the road. Not quite the same adrenaline as when going 240 km/h on my two-wheeler but still very enjoyable.

How fast have you taken the prius? | PriusChat

 

About a month ago 2 semis ended up in front of me. After waiting for miles for the road to clear I matted it and finally passed them. By the time I was in my lane again a glance at the speedo read 104. Cripes

 

And this is the concern a 1.5 ICE motors inherently don't get better MPG at high speed wile a V8 at 90 mph unaffected
within reason of gears . I have memories of travelling with a V8 at 90 and MPG same as 50 . But good old 4 bangers fine at 55 but at 90 worse then a V8
Its my belief the Prius gets help from the Hybrid aspect and puts great strain on the system & battery

 

The Prius real world top speed seems to be approximately 110 MPH

Posting from awhile back: Dude rear-ended me last month at a stop light. Rather than pull over, he did a U-Turn jumping over the concrete median and it was ON. I did a U at the intersection (which gave him a bit of a lead) and took off in pursuit down a four-lane divided highway with very little traffic.

His POS Honda seemed to have the exact same top speed as the Prius so it was almost comical as we held the same relative position for over five minutes. With my load/configuration, the speed was a constant 110 MPH and I was surprised at how stable the Prius was. Pretty much felt as smooth as 55. I just wanted to get close enough to read his license plate.

Finally he got the bright idea to turn off and started down some country roads with a bunch of curves. Since I didn't know the area, it became dangerous, so I broke off the chase. Later inspection revealed almost no damage so I'm figuring he had outstanding warrants -- why else make a simple fender bender into felony leaving after colliding?

The Prius does surprisingly well at high speeds.
