Resale value helps make the Prius a smart purchase
Edmunds.com has announced its first annual Best Retained Value Awards and the Toyota Prius came in fifth overall. The Honda Civic hybrid and the Honda Insight received Honorable Mention in the hybrid segment.
In just the last few months, Forbes and Kipplingers have come to the same conclusion regarding Prius resale value.
In fact, thanks in part to its high resale value, Forbes recently named the Prius one of the best overall values in the car market – not bad for a magazine that just a few years ago could find few positive things to say about the king of hybrids.
So, while the sticker price of the Prius might seem a little high, when all costs are factored, the Prius is actually a very good deal.
