Some don't like moonroofs. There may be some that don't want a cargo cover. Hard to believe, isn't it?

Actually I have read posts from people who don't like moonroofs---consider them a safety hazard. Personally I like them but I can do without them. I like cargo covers too, but it's one of those things that's easy to pick up later if a car doesn't have it. Not a big deal. For that matter, a moonroof can be added to a Prius. Now, something like ABS or ESC or airbags, those are impractical to add to a car after the fact, so it's more important they are there if they are important to the buyer.

i have a convertible, i don't consider a moonroof to be much of a safety hazard.
my mid size sedan doesn't need a cargo cover, but i do like the moonroof.
i would like to see a prius sunroof, if someone can post a picture or a link.
the roof design would make it a very expensive item.
maybe enough prius have been sold to provide a market for it.

Try a Google on "Prius moonroof" or "Prius sunroof". Here is an example...

Having a little fun tonight, eh? Since you have checked toyota.com re available options, you already knew that Toyota doesn't offer a factory designed and installed moonroof on the Prius. When I noted that a moonroof can be added to a Prius, you asked for a picture of one--which I provided.
 
I think we all get the message: you really don't like the Prius. Cargo covers and moonroofs have nothing to do with it. That's fine. But enough of the games, OK?
 
P.S. Did you know that factory designed and installed moonroofs can leak also? Some nighttime reading for you, if you are interested...

i could be wrong, but i think the prius has higher that usual voltage wiring that runs through the roof. i will take a toyota designed sunroof, not some aftermarket 80's design.
thanks for trying to convince me, but no sale.

Ha, I'm not trying to "convince" you of anything. Just trying to provide you with information that you requested and trying to have a civil discussion about mid-sized cars, hybrid variants in particular.
 
Please feel free to share with us any links to info about high-voltage wiring in the Prius' roof. As for moonroofs being designed in the '80s... yes, I think it's true that basic moonroof design hasn't changed much since then. I remember a moonroof on a girlfriend's 1983 626 that worked just like they do today.
