Welcome to the site, thanks for joining!

Well the Prius doesn't have an automatic transmission. It uses a continuously variable (CVT) transmission. So it doesn't behave exactly like "other" cars. Tell me this, when you come to a stop and let your foot off the brake does it hold the car or does it roll backward?
