    Hello PriusPrime Fans:

    Does anyone know if there is an indicator for the elevation as you are traveling to your destination? If so where would it be in the manual?

    thanks

    I use my iPhone compass app. If I were to guess if the Prius had altitude info it would be in the Nav. Perhaps “current position”?

    unlikely, but can't say definitively.

    I checked my 11.9” Nav. Long/lat but no altitude. My Garmin Nuvi does display it.

    So, either use your phone or get a garmin, the prius nav is lacking in convenience, and it gets lost often;)

    I have searched for an elevation display on my Prime and have not found it. My generation 3 Prius had such a display in tenths of a mile above sea level.
