Replying to: speedymac (Aug 08, 2008 6:56 am) My guess is we won't see the 2010 Prius 'till quite late into '09. Replies to this message: speedymac (Aug 22, 2008 6:59 pm) speedymac (Aug 22, 2008 7:06 pm)

Replying to: skeptical (Aug 22, 2008 6:45 pm) That would have been my guess as well but my dealership friend made some calls and was told that the 2009 they wanted to come with was not ready for fall of 08 but they felt it would be in April to summer in US and so would come out as the 1st of the 2010 models. I don't know anything for sure but he's still sticking to this scenario.

I don't know anything for sure but he's still sticking to this scenario. I'm on the unofficial list for a 2010 now as he said based on his information I wouldn't want to get on the 2009 list. I think this would be smart of Toyota to get the early 2010 version that will be at least capable of converting to a plugin and a battery change to a more advanced battery out as early as possible. It will be interesting for sure.

Replying to: jaxs1 (Aug 22, 2008 6:32 pm) Nice find...thanks.   The interior seems to be more 'traditional' than the current Gen2, gear shifter, console, waterfall center dash. But the steering wheel is definitely different and the semi-heads-up display on the dash is still there ( Good ). The door gear is from the Corolla/Matrix.

Replying to: jaxs1 (Aug 22, 2008 6:32 pm) It looks like the Navigation screen would get an awful lot of glare at that angle.
#273 of 311 2010 Prius: Plug-in or not? by maribago Aug 25, 2008 (7:32 am)
So, is there anything conclusive announced about the 2010 Prius related to "plug in"? Still Nimh battery in 2010, but plugin or no? Or is plug-in a feature to be introduced as a later option for the 2010, just not in summer of 2009? Thanks! Replies to this message: kdhspyder (Aug 25, 2008 9:57 am)

Replying to: maribago (Aug 25, 2008 7:32 am) Toyota has not said one single word about the timing or technology concerning it's plugin development other than there are tests being done.   Everything else is speculation.   There will be an official presentation of the Gen 3 Prius at the NAIAS next January in Detroit. It's not likely that anything definite will be leaked before the CEO speaks.

Replying to: sr1945 (Sep 04, 2008 7:00 am) Why don't they change this message board name to 2010 since the 2009 Prius can be talked about in the other Prius message boards along with the 2004-2008s?
