"   2012 Toyota Prius C The Prius C gets some pretty great gas mileage, but that&amp;#039;s not enough to earn Toyota&amp;#039;s smallest and cheapest hybrid a recommendation from Consumer Reports. The magazine specifically critiqued the harsh ride, noisy engine and lethargic acceleration as being key reasons why the car scored only 53 out of a possible 100 points. Some (faint) praise was given regarding the Prius C&amp;#039;s expected reliability, which CR pegged as likely being &amp;quot;very good.&amp;quot; Starting at $18,950, the Prius C has been most notable for its 53-mpg city/46-mpg highway fuel economy figures. Sales havebeen strong since the model went on sale in March, though it remains to be seen whether this recent criticism will put a serious dent in the reputation of the Prius C.
