    Hello,
    I'm gonna be a new Prius+ owner very soon. I very happy to join you to share on our toys.

    I'm from France and here, Prius v is called Prius+ and comes only with 7seat (not sure they're usefull though). I pulled the trigger on a new Prius Plus Dynamic which is the second level of equipment in the lineup. Body color is white pearl and I like the way is looks with the black roof. Wheels are 17". Interior is dark. The only option I chose is the navigation.

    It will look basically the same as this one at the dealership :

    Welcome! Your new car is going to be a beauty! Where in France do you live? I have family in Nice and all over Alsace.

    Congrats on your new upcoming Prius+! Sounds like we will be getting almost the same car this week in Norway. But did you say that Navigation was extra? You mentioned you got the 2nd out of the 3 different options, correct? How much did they start out at asking for that "extra" at the dealership? (Always interesting to hear what comes standard or not in different countries...)

    Thanks,
    in France, Prius+ is available with 3 levels of equipment : Active, Dynamic and Lounge. I chose "Dynamic" because it's seemed the more balanced proposal for my needs.
    "Dynamic" includes moonroof, 17" wheels, fog lamps, key less smart entry, rear window tint, rear window sunshades, head up display, mp3/bluetooth multimedia system with 6.1" touch screen and backup camera (called TOUCH)... but navigation maps are optional (called TOUCH & GO PLUS) ...
    "Lounge" includes Led headlights with washers, multimedia and navigation system with 7" screen and JBL speakers, autodimming mirror, and fee other tech goodies. Lounge costs 5k€ more... I decided to stick to Dynamic+Optional navigation maps.

    I won't be able to tell you any time soon because even here in the Europe, we don't buy such a small car when we need 7 seats...;)
