Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will feel a little more squished in the BMW 430 than in the Toyota Prius Prime, due to the BMW 430's smaller rear head- and legroom.
The Toyota Prius Prime will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the BMW 430.
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 BMW 430 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Toyota Prius Prime, which has a much lower MSRP.
Another consideration is the Destination Charge, which is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle to the dealer from where it's built. The BMW 430 and the Toyota Prius Prime have similar Destination Charges.
