Default 2010 Prius engine?

Anyone know the engine code for the 1.8L in the new Prius? Bonus points if you can also tell me the chassis code(s).

2ZR-FE (FXE for the Prius). Don't know the chassis code since it's a new chassis.

Ah, the same basic engine that is in the Corolla, Matrix and Scion xD. Thanks much!

The chassis code could be the ZHW30... we'll see.

NHW you mean.

Yes it's the same engine but with Atkinson cycle.

No, I mean ZHW. NHW would be the chassis code if it still had an N-series engine, but now that Toyota has put a Z-series engine into the car the chassis code will start with Z. I don't know if it will be a 30-series chassis code, but I would guess that it would since this is the third generation Prius. Of course, sometimes the platform is spun off of another car, then the code could be anything.

Hmm, I see. Should've asked us before we went to Detroit.

Well, often times they won't release the chassis code until the car is just about ready for sales. Once the cars start showing up in the dealer ordering system the chassis code will be available.

Does that mean the Corolla, Matrix, and Scion XD have an offset crankshaft? Or does that mean the Prius will not have an offset crankshaft?
