    The Prius is incompatible with dry washing process. Dry washing causes a static build up of energy that can short out most of the electronics, including the battery. It's in your owner's manual on page 147.




























    Just kidding. :D

    Don't know about that but Optimum No Rinse (ONR) has been used successfully here and I've recommended it to another member here who has been satisfied with the product.
