    I just bought my 2013 Prius 3. I thought this trim level had a backup camera and satellite radio but mine doesn't. Am I wrong that these are standard on the 3

    If you gave a gen 3 with trim level 3 you should have the back up camera and sat radio. here's the page from the factory brochure prius trim level 3 stereo.png

    Your title says "VIN says Prius 3", but what did you use for the VIN ⇨ trim level translation?

    When I bought my 2010 IV (in 2010 they used Roman rather than Arabic numerals), the seller was telling me it was a V. At first I thought that was the seller's fault, but I later put my VIN into the Toyota Owners web site and got the same wrong answer. It is clear that web site has some kind of data quality issues.
