Post Toyota Prius 10th Anniversary edition unveiled U.K

Toyota’s Prius has been given a special-edition model to celebrate 10 years of sales of the hybrid hatchback in the UK.

The Toyota Prius 10th Anniversary special edition will be limited to just 1000 units and is based on the top-spec T-Spirit trim level.

See the official pics of Toyota's special-edition Prius

Each unit sports a body kit including front, rear and side skirts, 17-inch alloys, rear privacy glass and embossed black leather upholstery incorporating the car’s 10th Anniversary logo. Buyers can choose on of two colours: White Pearl or Astral black.

Despite the styling changes, the car’s CO2 emission and economy figures still stand at 70.6mpg and 92g/km respectively.

The changes result in a price tag of £26,150; the first deliveries are expected later this year and it is available to order now.

Clean, organic, and subtle.

Appropriate for tree huggers...

With a conservative drop, that could really look propper

Yup! A drop would do wonders for this car. The 3rd gen Prius has slowly grown on me. The black looks kinda stealth too.

I love the white with the dark wheels. If I were to get Prius, I'd mod it just like that with a drop. Maybe black vinyl the roof while I'm at it.

Looks pretty good. I like the overall shape of the third gen.

Put all the make-up on a pig you want, it's still a pig.

Hmm... It don't look too bad. Slam it on coils or air and throw some 19s. A little VIP styling...
