Toyota Premio or CHR or Prius?

[Nuwan2806]

I'm planing to buy used vehicle. Premio 2010-2012, Chr 2017, Prius 2016 are on my shortlist? What are your ideas about this? Thank you in advance.

Is the CHR petrol or Hybrid.

Both everyday A to B vehicles. Reasonably comfortable and spacious (the Premio and Prius more than the CHR).

Reliability and being economical to run would depend on the vehicle's condition and how you will use it. Which car would be more viable would depend on how long you plan to keep it for.

It would be easy to give an answer if you explain more about your requirements like

Fuel economy 

Options 

Repairs

Comfort

Purpose of use (for family , long or short trips)

Congratulations. You should start your own thread with pictures. We love pictures of cars. If there are no pictures of your car we will just assume that you have gone crazy, started day dreaming and that the car is just a figment of your imagination

What was this tuneup ? <FYI...modern cars don't have the traditional tuneup we Lankans have in our minds which is from the 80s and earlier relating to cars with carburators and required actually "tuning" the carb. Newer cars, unless you remapped it, tune ups just more or less include cleaning things up (injectors, fuel filters, air filters, adjusting valve clearences if needed..which for most new cars would not be needed) or replaing these thigns and items like spark plugs, etc... any of these things would help the car improve fuel efficiency (especially if these thngs were pretty bad). Ideally you would reset your ECU so it relearns itsself but even if you don't things should normalize after driving for sometime.

Can't say since I haven't done it on my car yet. As iRage mentioned it could be the ECU resetting and will come back to normal after driving for a while.
