    Did the Prius C body style change at all for 2014 from 2013?

    I'm asking because I want to get a friend a car cover for her new 2014 Prius C but online most places only list up to 2013. Will it fit the 2014?

    The v stayed the same and came out the model year as the c. I've got a 14' v and it's identical to the 13' so I'm damned near positive the c is unchanged as well. Guessing here, but the 15' models for the v and c should see some minor cosmetic changes.

    The normal Toyota design cycle for a slight restyling (meaning lights, some bumper change and a few detect urging to the interior) happens very 4 to 6 years, Also determined on how the model is selling. A complete redesign happens around 6 to 8 years. The prius c is selling well so I believe the model will look around the same for some time.

    Did Toyota finally put rear disc brakes in the 2014? - It's always been on the Yaris.

    Does a hybrid really need disc brakes?

    No, and it was never available (in US SPEC) on a Yaris until 2012+ SE models, they also received larger front rotors. if you can find one in a salvage yard, or want to spend over 1200 for OEM parts it can EASILY be retrofitted...

    Front YES, rear, NO.

    PS Toyota USUALLY employs a 5-7 year chassis life cycle with a 2-4 year mid cycle "refresh".

    We scofflaws and felons know how you feel, thank you. I never understand the "too hard to see" nonsense as I have zero problems seeing out 5% even at night (and I prefer the less harsh headlights shining in from behind). But please continue to parrot your ocular deficiencies, I'm sure it has been an effective argument saving no doubt thousands of our youth from the dangers of that horrible gateway crime of window tinting.

    So you and your fellow cyclists don't wear sunglasses, right? As a driver of a 2 ton tank I find eye contact with cyclists and motorcyclists to be a critical issue.
