3 New 2010 Prius Spy Photos

[Danny]

Auto123 has posted 3 new 2010 Toyota Prius spy photos taken by a gentleman with a camera phone recently. The 2nd photo confirms the interior that we have seen in other spy photos. PriusChat will have a gallery of all of the 2010 spy photos soon so that you don't have to search through multiple threads to find them all





Also, if you look at the right rear quarterpanel you'll see a spot in the camo for a "gas tank" door. Looking through prior Toyota Plug-In photos, this is the same spot where the plug is located. Could Toyota be street testing a plug-in 2010 Prius already?

Very interesting... The rims are new... we've never seen those before. It looks very much like the current rims with a cut at the edges. It should be lighter.

The instrument panel looks pretty spartan and where the mfd? Do you think they leave such stuff out of a test car?

Wheels on this version look a lot smaller than the previous spy photos. Can't wait to see the final product.

i really don´t like the dashboard.
and yes i think its a plugin!!!

maybe to make the new prius cheaper there is a option for the MFD and like the camry a simple little battery state monitor.

Yea, that one has a simple radio instead of MFD. This shot is the prior one showing what seems to be a cheap monochrome MFD.



The rims seem to be the same 15".

I don't think I like the looks of the full body bra.

I wonder how much of an MPG hit the car takes due to bad aerodynamics.

Was Robin driving? It didn't look like Batman, but was obviously his vehicle.

Dashboard/Console is terrible. I hate the cockpit styles of late, what I like best is the airiness of current style.
