Featured SPOTTED! *UNWRAPPED* 2016 Prius spotted this morning!

Agreed, those lines appear in the Prius C. The C really does give great mileage, it's just a tight feeling car. I'm a 48 regular and it's a 38 regular. Rear seat leg room is very tight. My daughter's '14 Corolla has great rear seat leg room even with the front seat all the way back.

We will see more photos in the next week or so. It will be interesting for sure. The auto fanboy mags will give their assessment of Gen IV.
When Mr Toyoda sent this car back to the drawing board, I wonder how bad it must have been. Even the engineering mules have changed since last year. Now I'm wondering if the mustache can be changed and body color cladding added to the black glass panel between rear door and the hatch?
A lot of folks are bothered by the floating roof. Why does it bother them?

I think these are great!

I recognize the top photo as Prius C. Is the bottom photo of a Lexus CT or ?

I finished today, replacing the dash speakers with 3.5 JL Audio, 2 front door 6x9 JBL and 2 rear door Kicker speakers. Now sound is great, but no Sub!!

Hopefully they use some or all of that gain in volume for a good place to hide a larger battery in the PiP2 version.

 

The RX is probably the most popular Lexus. The relentless pursuit of perfection and send M-B , BMW and Audi back to the design computer. Fire up the Cray, we're going to need it.
Hopefully Gen 4 will have some Lexus elements in it, too. This may mean the CT200h will be changing soon, too.

I love that Lexus LS600h. But Dad doesn't have that kind of money or want for it.
Do you want a car like that? Yes
Do you need a car like that? No
But it would sure look good on my driveway. I'd say that the insurance would be stratosphericly high, given the starting price.

Hmmmm, same weight difference between current Prius and PiP. Most of the difference should be battery weight/system.

Hope there is more of a spread here for PiP2. Unless that means the regular Prius will have a larger battery too?

 

I found this on the IndianAuto website, which probably came from the Taiwanese website

I like the purple looking one in the upper left hand corner. That is an Avalon color, the name escapes me. This is just a guess: Sizzling Crimson Metallic. Or Royal Blackberry Metallic. Still looks like Deep Purple Metallic to me.

I think I would still get black to mitigate some of the aesthetic deficiencies of the rear of the vehicle.

 

I have to agree with your wife!

 

So do I ,but unfortunately the designers thought that the interior of the new Prius should be way simpler.
At least according to images of the inside we have seen so far !
Coming from a gen 3 it looks kind of boring !
Who knows,maybe Toyota is pulling our leg and it was just another of their test mules .
Hope dies last !
