    I went to my dealer today and asked about ETA for 2015 Vs. And the sales manager went on the computer and gave me this printout. The first page had a date at the top of the page saying 09/24/14 (cropped out to zoom). Just the 8-way power seats make it worth the wait till December which is the date he told me could/should be release date.

    "Body structure has been optimized to increase ability to absorb impact" that will be the changes for the IIHS Small overlap frontal test which was introduced in 2012 after the v was designed. Glad to see they addressed this, I worried it would have to wait until a full redesign could be done.

    With the delete of the touring package, (which we have ) this must be Canadian specs.

    A real black interior is good. Wonder what the updated instrument panel looks like.

    A number of them will carry over to the U.S. The interior and exterior refreshes will. The packaging might not.

    Interesting. Nice safety additions but only on the Technology Package. Also interesting to note is bringing the 7" HDD nav down to the luxury package (and removing the 6.1" Display Audio w/ navigation). I suspect this may lead to a bit of a price drop (Lane Departure Alert and Automatic Headlamps cost less than IPA, JBL and headlamp washers. However, thrown in power front seats and it may be a wash for the packages)

    I always thought the single stage seat heaters in my v were a little on the aggressive side.

    Whoa, that site lists Attitude Black, Absolutely Red and Hot Lava as new colours for the Prius Alpha, along with a new brown metallic.

    I doubt we'll see a searing orange Prius v on our shores.

    [​IMG]

    Super White, Blizzard Pearl, Blue Ribbon, Magnetic Grey and Classic Silver are carry over.

    I'm not a huge fan of the redesigned front fascia, but the new tail lights are very good.

    I hope LED daytime running lights and turn signal mirrors make it to the US market.

    It also looks like the headlight washers are gone.....
    I also like the changes to the front and rear.
    Any pictures of the new "toasted Walnut" color??
