If you are just going purely on the quoted figures then its worth looking at the latest technology that seems to be coming with the "green" (!) versions of diesel cars, engine stop/start... I know its been around for a while but recent reviews seem to indicate that they've got it sorted... Current Fabia Estate is 68 urban, 94 extra and 83 combined... and its got a bigger boot than the Prius...
Depends if you want quiet auto or can stand the noise of the diesel and having to change gear... personal preference...
I've just been looking at some Prius Forums and its interesting seeing the figures most of them are getting which is in the early to mid 50s... I'm getting that from my Roomster which is a much more versatile car all round...
