    Seems only a tire repair kit, I am inferring no spare, on base LE in USA per brochure.
    Figure discussed into the ground though I don’t think it is fair to charge for digital key service after first year free use is over.
    Do like the idea of a Inegreated dashcam, not certain how one gets that option nor what trim is required.

    Time will tell if the new prius is a grand slam or other rides coming out will offer better value over all.

    It’s an individual choice. Getting harder and harder to find cars with spare tires.
    I made the decision 11 years ago, and while I prefer a spare, I haven’t regretted it.
    The problem is, there are so many differences between cars, you can’t make the decision based on one thing.
    If i love the Prius but insist on a spare, what am I going to buy?
    Easier just to buy a spare and throw it in back

    The cream puff currently in our garage keeps looking better.
