In general a Sienna is more expensive than domestic brands of minivans - getting is slightly used mitigated this problem.
20064dr Minivan, ext. 215-horsepower 3.3L V6

I paid $ 8,000 more for my new 2006 Sienna LE than for my 2009 GC SXT, 2002 T&C LX, or 1999 GC SE. The Chrysler minivans have many more nice features than the Sienna LE.
20064dr Minivan, ext. 215-horsepower 3.3L V6

The Toyota did not have the rebates and incentives that are common on the domestics, so it is priced higher.

20084dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
I felt that the cost was reasonable given the technology. In addition, there was a total of $4000 in government tax rebates that lessened the cost of ownership a great deal.

Even the low end Prius was a few thousand more than the mid-range Insight EX.
20104dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
Price is too high in this uncertain economic time. Plus I tend to keep cars 10 to 12 years. I do not want to be faced with the cost of replacing the batteries (well over $1,500) eight to ten years from now.
20104dr Sedan 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
Getting any hybrid new in 2010 for 21k was not a bad deal, but Toyota broke out the Prius into several different models, and for 21k you get a pat on the back and the little paper in the floorboard.
20104dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid

Several thousand more than the Insight.
20084dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
There is the "hybrid premium" you pay because of the new technology, but the Prius is neither a small car not a cheap car. It is larger than a Camry inside and it is well built with tons of features not found on cars such as the Yaris, Corolla, Elantra...
20084dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

Far too expensive for what you get.
20084dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

Payments were 382 per month for 7 years, car not really worth it.
20074dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

Its expensive, compared to other models of about the same size. It will take several years before the fuel economy pays that back.
20064dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

20044dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

In Canada, there is definitely a price premium for the Prius - which is unfortunate, since it is a great car.
20044dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

It can be pricier than similar cars of the same model year.
20034dr Sedan 70-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
It is an expensive car, and I am hoping to drive it for 10+ years to make that investment worth it. I am a person who would more likely buy a used car rather than something new off the lot. I just got swept away by the "green" aspect of owning a Prius.
