    Well, we're finally getting a 5-passenger Prime for 2020 - coming soon.
    And the color black exterior! A new cherry red metallic, and some interior changes.

    Prius Prime is now more competitive with a new 5th seat and Apple CarPlay®:
    o Key details:
    ▪ New seating configuration for 5 occupants
    ▪ Standard Apple CarPlay and Amazon Alexa compatibility and SiriusXM
    ▪ New grade strategy that offers LE, XLE and Limited grades and badging for upper grades
    • NEW Styling/Interior Updates:
    ▪ New 15” 5-spoke Alloy Wheels with new Two-Tone wheel covers
    ▪ 5th passenger seat in rear
    ▪ (2) Two additional 2.1 USB ports for the rear passengers
    ▪ Addition of dual front sun visor extenders
    ▪ Relocated front seat heater buttons
    ▪ Standard Apple CarPlay and Amazon Alexa compatibility and SiriusXM
    ▪ Two new paint colors for Prius Prime:
    • Supersonic Red (3U5) replaces Hypersonic Red (3T7)
    • New color Midnight Black Metallic (218)
    ▪ New Piano black accents around shifter, on steering wheel, and center console cover

    Pricing per model jumps an average of 1.5-2% of the MSRP it seems.
    I already have 2020 models floating over from Japan, so the 2019's are going fast with the big incentives on 'em!

    Does that mean the LE trim comes with a spare? I don’t see the tire repair kit listed with that trim.

    You wish! But don't think so.

    Considering the change from 2019 model, it looks like many are going to wait for 2020 model for purchase, thus deeper incentive on 2019 models.

    I’m hoping for my VA stuff to come to an end around the end of the year, my atty thinks that I have a strong enough case to get a bump from 10% to 50%. I don’t need or want much more then that. That gives me 21 months of back pay. I would likely do a 40-50% down payment on a 2020.

    If it doesn't have Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 (with lane centering/lane tracing) then I'm disappointed. The Rav4, Corolla, and Corolla Hatch all have it.

    All of the upgrades mentioned are very much welcome, especially the 5th seat. When is Andriod Auto going to be added to the 2020 model year? Is Toyota going to offer a firmware upgrade to include Andriod Auto in other 4th gen Prius models?

    Prime has no spare. There's no room for one. FYI!

    In a few months, anything with Apple Car Play will have an upgrade available to add Android auto.
