New Larger Prius Announced/Confirmed for 2010
 
Ok, so I've read a little bit of a teaser article here about the upcoming larger Prius. It doesn't seem to have a name yet, unless they are just going to use the name Prius as a sub-brand.

Does anyone know what it will look like? I wish they'd make a slick sedan, I'd rather have a handsome car than an egg like shape (I know the shape reduces drag but I would sacrifice a little mpg for a conventional look)

Does anyone have a link to share of the new Prius with pics or drawings?

Here's the article about it: http://acceltimes.com/news/11/toyota...ius-111309.php

Yeah, unfortunately, Toyota is stating that it just averages 40 mpg instead of 50. I'm not sure why, since it shouldn't be that much heavier and uses the same drivetrain. It could be that it does better than this. Will have to wait for official results from EPA and groups like Consumer Reports real world testing.
