Toyota Prius hybrid minivan
For one year now there were rumors about this but now it seems that it is coming true. Toyota plans on releasing the new hybrid minivan Prius on the nameplate. If true, this would be the first completely new vehicle added to the Prius stable, where it would join the well-known hatchback sometime in 2011. Reuters says the new Prius hybrid minivan may be the first such vehicle from Toyota equipped with an in-house developed lithium ion battery pack. This three-row vehicle, which we can only presume would also have sliding doors, would potentially seat up to seven people, expanding Toyota’s hybrid technology further into the family-use market.
