    Analysis is coming, but first here is a fresh crop of Prius v photos. They include the completed Puzzle #3, which is a full shot of the interior cargo area of the Prius v, as well as some screencaptures from the Bob Burnquist video Toyota posted earlier today.

    Wait a minute... could this mean all those people that complained about the split rear view can actually have a Prius now?? It has a normal rear window lol.

    Looking at the picture of the front end, I guess the Advanced Tech Package, or at a minimum the radar cruise control, will be available since the emblem is the flat type one used on the Prius V with ATP.

    And the placement of the fog lamps inside the lower air dam, instead of outside, really gives the front end a Gen II-esque look

    BIG DISAPPOINTMENT from lack of third row seating. Need to look for another brand or car...

    I like the bigger back. It'll fit my son's wheelchair better than our current Prius.

    Does that mean that whenever the person in front of me touches their brakes and then gets back on the gas, instead of allowing me to keep going a constant speed, the Prius will instead apply the brakes and then accelerate; wasting energy? :(

    Yes but keeping a safe distance to the vehicle ahead.

    it doesnt monitor brake lights of the cars in front of you.. in monitors their speed... so if you guys are going 70mph, and someone drops to 69, your prius will drop to 69.

    If he drops to 50, your prius also drops to 50, maintaining constant distance between you and car ahead of you.

    We bought a TCH for my wife in 2007, but I've always told myself I'd also buy a hybrid wagon if someone would make one. The current Prius comes close, but this may be the one. Too bad it still doesn't have as much space as a Honda Fit, but I'll swap 50mpg for a little cargo space...cool! Looking forward to more info & pics from the Detroit show this week...

    Whoops, I stand corrected. The Fit has 57.3 cuft with the back seats folded down, the Prius has 39.6. So the wagon presumably has 59.4 cuft (39.6+50%). I am looking forward to learning more about the Prius wagon, thanks!
