Well, that didn't take long for a comparison test to show up in this month's issue. Please note that it is not online yet (sorry). I'll summarize their results:

Prius: Ugly, slow in hybrid mode, ugly, really slow in BEV mode, roomy
Volt: Looks a bit like an Elantra, drives great, tight rear seating, quick, and worth the extra money

Winner (by a healthy margin): Volt

Moneyquote:

While the Prius Prime might not please those of us who love driving, Toyota's reputation for reliability and the Prius Prime's soothing driving experience will be compelling enough to win over fuel-obsessed buyers. Just don't drive a Volt after signing the paperwork.
