Is that teaser for the moon roof? Because I can't think of anything else that would have a switch like that

i am trying hard to understand this pic, yet I can not.
Temp and volume settings are on the "combination meter". Is the whole combination meter going to be LCD screen then? I dont get those two at all? Looks like holograms coming out of the combination meter... space trek indeed

Looks like the new 09 Matrix. I like the Honda Insight concept more.

If this is real, it looks good, and even if it's not real I think it's close to the production model.
Either way, the interior looks to be production based on earlier spyshots. Most of the pics here are seriously squashed and compressed and things look awkward.
The criticisms of the center-mounted gauge cluster/display have merit, but some of you need to remember the center display is WIDE in this case. If you look carefully, it begins almost at the steering wheel and stretches past the center console.
The display itself based on the pics looks pretty futuristic, and I'm not even sure exactly what the centre display will show.
A lot of people on CL have criticized the current 2nd gen Prius for being too slab-sided, and I would generally agree. Based on these pics, the side profile of the new Prius looks sportier, and has more character. I would definitely say the Honda Insight is more slab-sided and bland than the new Prius.
LED lights at the front end would not surprise me, since LED lights conserve energy and will ultimately help the Prius in overall efficiency. They obviously also have the added bonus of looking cool.
Assuming these pics are the real thing, the new Prius exterior-wise looks certainly better than the Insight IMHO, and it is sure to get better fuel economy, since Honda executives themselves have basically admitted the new Insight will have roughly the same fuel economy as the current Civic hybrid.
The Prius unveiling happens soon, so we shall see how accurate these are.

i think this is a real leak
not rendered
the details of the headlights look the same in both shots
just the close up shot is shot from a lower angle so you cant see the top accent of the headlight
nice headlight though, reminds me of LF-A (one of the fastest production car toyota will ever build within 10 years in contrast to Prius, one of the most frugal fuel sipping car toyota has made) lol
anyways
dont like the front beak very much
i do like the lights though
but i think the Honda's new Insight or whatever is a better looking car overall

Dunno how some of you guys see it as the same as the current one!
I think it looks WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than the current Pious.
