My Car: 2008 Prius Package: N/A Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 0 | I'm currently hesitating between a 2009 Matrix XRS and a Prius. I'd like a Prius and am ready to make some sacrifices, but the current Prius' lack of telescopic steering wheel makes it impossible for me to find a comfortable seating position. I have to sit a bit far for my legs to be ok, but then my arms are stretched. If I get closer, my legs bend and the cruise control knob hits my knee when I turn. So I'm thinking of waiting for the release of the '09 Prius to see if that was fixed. In conclusion, when can I expect the 2009 model release? August 2008? Thanks |

i spoke with a regional sales manager (family friend) and he confirmed that the 'new' prius won't be out till may of 09' as a 2010 model. new body, better mileage, and a bigger engine. which is great but is a whole year away. Last edited by ryanj023; 04-17-2008 at 02:19 PM. | |
