Key numbers

What it costs to fuel

Across its configurations, the 2016 Prius v costs about $1,600 to $1,600 a year to fuel at the EPA's 15,000-mile basis, averaging roughly $1,600. Over five years that is about $8,000 in fuel alone before maintenance, insurance and depreciation — which is why the running cost, not just the price, decides what a car really costs.

Relative to an average new vehicle, the most efficient Prius v configuration saves about $3,500 in fuel over five years; less efficient versions spend more.

For context, the average combined economy of midsize station wagons in this dataset is about 25 MPG. The Prius v sits roughly 16 MPG above that mark at its midpoint, making it more efficient than average for its EPA class.
