    The beginning of this view shows a cut-away of the Prius Prime. The battery is solely in the cargo area. You can see what's under the rear seat in lieu of the battery pack in the regular Prius Liftback. It's too bad they couldn't take advantage of the spare tire area.

    That's the special heat-reflective paint.

    Great shot of the titanium glow, and I really like those solar cells on the roof.
    That's pretty much what the color looks like although in some cases it can appear a little more pink like Pink Champagne, depending on the light.

    For the cut away they painted the aluminum extruded front bumtper the blue body color rather than leave it in bare aluminum as it actually is.

    Just thought I'd share with y'all. Here are some pictures of a skeleton of the Prius PHV when I visited the Toyota Showroom in Tokyo.
