Thank you for posting this first image here on PriusChat!

Are you saying you know these guys are legit? If so, that's cool...

I'm thinking this pic was snapped at an AutoShow. Perhaps, an AutoShow traveling employee from the Paris Autoshow took some type of advertisement pic for the future Prius, and hopes he will get to see the new one before us, and he will be able to get the pics to us first. maybe.

If you really are the "Prius Team," please take some type of pic to help convince us. Even if it's just a pic of something random, that indicates you are part of Toyota.

I'm not buying it yet. It seems out of character for Toyota to be encouraging rumors in online forums when they are best known for delivering working hardware. A screenshot from the next MFD won't do much to fight all the hype surrounding the Volt, if that's what they're worried about.

KMO · 10-06-2008, 03:25 PM

Quit with the pointless scepticism. Danny (the admin) has already confirmed it's official. Toyota marketing have come through PriusChat before.

To Prius Team,

If we will have to piece together the puzzle, can you provide the list of our "favorite Prius sites"?

This is stupid and frankly, it pisses me off.

It's worse than the Sharp ad and the other rollover and scrolling banner ads.

I wish Danny and the moderators would shut this thread down. Otherwise there'll be thousands of more views and big wastes of time.

Derek · 10-06-2008, 03:56 PM

Awesome, it is a start. Patiently waiting.

Flying White Dutchman · 10-06-2008, 04:14 PM

not a high resolution screen!
so maybe it wil be not the MFD but a small MFD near the speedo.
like the camty got to display hybrid info when you dont have the MFD option

SageBrush · 10-06-2008, 05:04 PM

I figured if I clicked on the picture it would throb. Or something.
