Hi All:

___Not really worthy of news and little new. The masked front end was grafted on a current Gen-II and the wheels are different.

Spied: More powerful Prius (http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080804/FREE/930173243/1023/CARNEWS)

___I want the Car and Driver Prius-III rendering!

___Good Luck

___Wayne

Hi Wayne,

I think that car is an old test mule or something because I came across a website with spy shots of a heavily camouflaged prius III, it is definitely sleeker and better looking than the current prius. It may just be very close to the Car and Driver rendering. Take a look: http://blogs.thecarconnection.com/blogs/marty_blog/2010/2010-toyota-prius-spied/

Do you think a larger engine is needed in this car? If anything maybe more electric HP? This horsepower thing just will not go away! H:(

Hey, *I've* got that red and silver trailer visibility tape on
mine -- does that make it hotter?

The changes in the car are simply a response to public demand.

Besides, if Toyota can make one with more power that gets better mileage, few people buying it will be complaining!
