The first hack, absolutely necessary, was to disable the annoying "truck back up beep" played loudly when the car is moving backwards. It can't be heard outside the car, where it might do some good. Nope, it just frightens the passengers. Instructions I followed can be found here:

Second, I installed a Coastal E Tech EV Mode kit. The EV Mode is a Toyota factory capability around the world. It allows you to drive your Prius at low speeds for relatively short distances without using the ICE (Internal Combustion Engine. I really haven't used it much, but it gave me practice working in the dashboard area of my car. Info on that kit can be found at:
