My wife has a Prius and it creates no noise, BUT it has over 106,000 mile on it so it's quite old and I doubt it's a good representation of the current production. BTW she just had the battery replaced at 104,000 miles. She gets about 43 MPG, I get about 47 over the same roads.

I am considering purchasing a hybrid car, but hesitate because of possible
RFI between my mobile station (HF/VHF/UHF) and the automotive electrical
system and electronics . Concern is in both directions - received noise, and
susceptibility of the car to RFI from my ham equipment. My interest is
general, but I'm especially interested in Toyota hybrid vehicles. If anybody
knows of problems (or lack of problems) with amateur radio installations in
hybrid vehicles, I would appreciate knowing what has been learned.
