The review said that unless you a very limber, a Prius will no longer be a good choice. They also have a lot less storage room in the back with the seats down. Alas! I already have to be careful about hitting my head in the one I have now. I love my Prius (which I use as a minivan), and I don’t like SUVs.

Just a for what it's worth.
I'm a car guy, I would never trust Consumer Reports in making a car decision. I remember a few years ago they tested cars with the collision avoidance systems. They tested the Prius and it failed the test but, surprisingly, finished in the middle of the pack of cars tested. A few months later Toyota posted a response saying the Prius model Consumer Reports tested did not have the collision avoidance system and it fact, at that time NO Toyota models had the system installed. At that point I lost all faith in Consumer Reports.
