Toyota News: Spying: 2016 Toyota Prius, Minus the Camoflage

[William Maley]

The fourth-generation Toyota Prius has made an early debut thanks to spy photographer who caught the vehicle uncovered at a photo shoot.

 

There's a lot of the Mirai hydrogen vehicle in the new Prius' design. Such details include very busy front-end with split opening grille and forked headlights, to a similar side profile and blacked-out C-Pillar. The Prius will be keeping the liftback shape that it has been using since the seconf-generation model.

 

We don't know any details on the next-generation Prius hybrid powertrain, but Green Car Reports says the next Prius will use Toyota's new global modular platform and possibly have all-wheel drive as an option.

 

We'll get our first look at the next-generation Prius next month.

There should have been a warning for viewers to don their welding hats before viewing.  *eyeballs burnt*

I can't believe they'd approve such a polarizing and extreme design on such a mainstream vehicle.

Using the BUTT UGLY Hydrogen style on the Prius took it from Ugly to outright hideous! 

 

I just do not get the Japan style they are doing, either the cars are totally boring and will put you to sleep or hideously ugly.
