Comparison Review

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Maserati GranTurismo as you will with the Toyota Prius, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Maserati GranTurismo will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Toyota Prius, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Maserati GranTurismo is much wider than the Toyota Prius, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. If you go with the Maserati GranTurismo, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Toyota Prius.

Handling
The Maserati GranTurismo has a significantly larger turning radius than the Toyota Prius, making it much more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Maserati GranTurismo has a much more powerful engine than the Toyota Prius. However, something you should consider is that higher horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Maserati GranTurismo does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the Toyota Prius.

Utility
The Maserati GranTurismo has less seating than the Toyota Prius, making the Toyota Prius the better choice if you need to chauffeur many passengers.
