    Hey Du! What about block heaters?

    Lars:

    Some of us in the US and Canada sure would like to have a block heater.

    Are they standard in Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Baltics, Germany?

    If not, why not?

    Regards,



    Bob (aka RobertO, where "O" is for Olaf...)

    Block heaters in Finland

    Hi RobertO,

    Engine block heaters are not standard in Finland.
    The reason is our very high car tax. If heater is factory fitted it means double price!
    Prius block heater is 248 Euros (300 USD) option, if it is fitted in Finland. If it would be factory fitted, then the price would be about 500 USD! Now you know the reason.

    We use Defa-heaters in Finland, it is the most common brand. Another brand you may find in Finland is Calix. Defa is a Norwegian brand.

    2004 Prius in worth 39800 Euros (48500 USD) in Finland. That price includes all options except metallic paint, Alcantara upholstery and navigation/bluetooth. Even seat heaters are standard. Only this equipment level is available and standard upholstery is grey.

    Alacantra Upholstery is extra? Is it available at all? What is the standard upholstery made of? I've never heard of them making it without the Alacantra.

    Alcantara upholstery vs. standard upholstery

    Yes, green alcantara is available as an option worth ca. 4000 Euros (4880 USD). Remember our high car tax.

    Standard upholstery is grey fabric upholstery.

    Regards,

    Heikki

    Standard upholstery *looks* a bit similar to Alcantara, but it is not Alcantara.
