Compared to a 2005-2019 which are 188", the SN95 is more than six-inches shorter.

I hated those fake side scoops and hood scoop with a passion. They not only trapped dirt and water, but were impossible to keep clean.

#4 that little cover is probably for the tow hook? So, only a matter of time before we see a license plate there or a giant, gaudy colored, always in tow hook.

Very fitting for Cadillac. Even their logo will be an empty shell of its former self.

I had zero brake wear issues on my 500e, but my rear tires wors much faster than the fronts. On 2 sets, too. The first set (OEM) had horrendous cupping (rather than uniform wear). Alignment was perfect every time Ihad it checked, too. I totally agree with the weight distribution thing though. Was still a very fun car…

Literally my concern in my C-Max. Wear/exposure in the other system components from such low use is my worry. I drove a Fiat 500e for 55k miles and the brake pads looked “new” to my brake guy shortly before my lease termed.

That’s an expensive replacement for not even getting to use them.

Same thing happened with me and my Camry Hybrid. 135k miles, and I only had to replace the rear pads once, and the front pads never.

Prius V owner - so far i’ve had one set replaced and I’m hoping i can make it to summer before my second set of rotors - IN 4 YEARS.

thanks for nothing, Toyota.

My neighbor is an Uber driver. He says he has close to 140k on his 4yrs old Prius. On its last checkup, the stealership said the pads are still around 85%. He says he does brake very conservatively.

Seems like a few heavy panic brakings per week should be a useful maintenance routine. One of the side benefits of my electrics (500e, Spark) was never having to clean brake dust off the wheels.

Had the same “problems” with my Fiat’s rear brakes. That car was so nose heavy that the rear axle did little more than keep the rear bumper off the ground. This mean tires and brakes for the rear lasted forever - I ran ONE pair t of 200tw tires on the rear axle for over 80,000 miles, and they still had life left in…

I have a 2009 Camry Hybrid purchased new with 150k miles and LOTS of original pad left.

Can Confirm. I drive a 2013 Chevy Volt with around 68k miles on it, and I can still read the white lettering on the backing of the pads. No brake dust to speak of. When I got my first oil Change done at 62k miles (The Volt’s 3rd oil change in its life), the service center noted almost no wear on the brake pads.

C-Max Energi driver here. I wish Ford put better rotors on their hybrids as mine seem to rust whenever there’s been some rain. I try to do some hard braking after inclement weather just to knock off the rust spots I see on my rotors.

Wow! My Chevy Volt came with rotors made of a special material resistant to rusting due to the reduced usage and temps the brakes will see. 6 years in and the rotors still look pretty new.

Seems like software should lightly incorporate the hydraulic brakes for the first couple stops in each trip to prevent this.

A former coworker of mine says she got 100k out of the front brakes on her Prius. Seemed pretty cool but for the fact that she had to spend 100k behind the wheel of a Prius.

Same issue with my Highlander Hybrid, the pads are ok, but my front rotors are starting to fall apart which will lead to the pads wearing unevenly or way quicker than normal due to pitting on the rotors.

Wow! That is quite the achievement by your wife. How long did that take?
