BTW - Prius is closer to 150,000 NIS. The Honda Insight is a less expensive option at 130,000 NIS – and it is a great car with plenty of oomph – we traded in a Honda EX 2200.

Lauderdale Airport Rental Thu, 30 Oct 2008 05:03:26 +0000 http://greenprophet.com/?p=704#comment-874 Yeah, the Prius is surprisingly powerful (especially in 2nd gear). It was a shocker because I've been in another hybrid and the lower-end power is almost unheard of. Not only is the Prius a good fit for the long-commute driver, but it's amazing when you're just driving around town. Considering this is coming from the states, I can only imagine how much more of a relief a hybrid such as this model can be a real benefit in other countries like Isreal. True, the tax on the car is outrageous, but when you nickel-and-dime it given a 3-5 year span, you'll see that the savings pays for the tax at least 5 times over. As far as filling up every two weeks, I think those of us who still use purely gas vehicles can attest to the fact that going that long w/o a fillup is a dream. It won't be long until every new car comes standard for a hybrid. It'll be a permanent fixture like the seat belt was law in the '90's or when cars all changed to unleaded in '75.
