    Hello I just came back from the dealer after buying a new Prius v 7 seater here in Hong Kong. Not much choice of anything, you can choose the colour and that's it. Having said that, the car come equipped with most of the good options. October delivery, can't wait.

    [​IMG]You lose the battery in the back, and there is a battery in the center armrest in the front so you lose that storage area.

    Thanks for the welcome. I understand the battery pack is 7kg lighter and lithium-ion. Can't wait to drive it home.

    Seeing the overhead shot, how do they fit anyone over 5 years old in any of the 5 rear seats? Those look tight. You pay in MPG for what we call a mini-van but at least adults fit in all the seats.
