2010 Toyota Prius Is Worst Managed Teaser Campaign Ever, New Unofficial Pics Emerge
There are really two kinds of press campaigns surrounding the 2010 Toyota Prius right now, the official ones with silly pictures of knobs and carpet and bolts and the like, then there's the other kind that leaks the whole car and major details, like this one today. In this set of low-resolution images we see the Prius in profile, the layout of the all-digital dash, the amount of cargo room we can expect, and that the new car will be getting headlight washers — certainly one of those hefty options absolutely necessary for a super efficient hybrid.

2010 Toyota Prius US Production Could Be Delayed
Even mighty Toyota is feeling the pinch of the self-fulfilling prophecy that is the disintegration of the economy, with rumors surfacing production of the 2010 Toyota Prius in the Tupelo, Mississippi plant will be delayed. That'll keep all Prius production in Japan for the time being. Demand for the gas-thrifty hybrids has fallen as fuel prices have plummeted to sub-$2.00 levels, leaving dealers sitting on a healthy but still enviable 21 day supply. This could also be a reconsideration of strategy, since the dollar has strengthened and a collapse of any of the big three could be a deathblow to some shared domestic parts suppliers, leaving the Prius high and dry with an otherwise profitable assembly line. We'll keep our eyes out for movement back to Tupelo, but don't expect it to come anytime soon. More »

Toyota Unveils New Prius Micro-Site
We're just 60 days from the reveal of the 2010 Toyota Prius at the Detroit Auto Show, meaning it's time for the automaker to launch a micro-site with an annoying countdown clock. What makes it more annoying is photos of the New Prius have already leaked. So yeah, the countdown clock? Sort of unnecessary at this point. But, if you're suddenly unable to determine the number of days from now until the Detroit Auto Show this may be a helpful tool.

2010 Toyota Prius, Venza Spotted On 405
Intrepid reader and impromptu spy photographer Brian sent us these images of a camo-covered 2010 Toyota Prius hamming it up with a 2009 Toyota Venza on California's 405 freeway outside of Long Beach. This tag team of dynamic excitement is pounding the pavement of the 90801 ahead of the Detroit Auto Show premier of the Prius. Keep in mind, we've already seen complete pictures of the new Prius, and ToMoCo has been pummeling us with coma-inducing teaser shots, so these are really just a study in purpose-free camouflage.

New Toyota Prius Teaser Solves Mystery Of The Disappearing Adjustable Seat
Toyota continues to stick with its strategy of slowly releasing tiny teasers of the 2010 Toyota Prius through the good folks at PriusChat despite the fact that we've seen the full car. But whereas the previous teasers left us with questions, this latest photo answers a question Prius owners have had since the first model rolled off the assembly line: What the hell is up with the seats? Prius seats have until now lacked proper adjustments, something a technologically forward-leaning car like the Prius should be expected to have. We'll be sure to sit in them at the Detroit Auto Show in January and tell you what we think. More » -

New Toyota Prius Teaser Campaign Continues With A Head Scratcher
Even though we've already seen the 2010 Toyota Prius, the marketing march of extreme closeup teasers continues, this time with something we can't put a name on. It's obviously a camera of some sort, probably. Heck it could be a super amazing fog light, or a fancy fingerprint reading door lock, or the eye of a HAL 9000. In any case it's got a big fish-eye lens and it's watching something, possibly silently judging it. We do know it's for a feature not currently available on the Prius — so that rules out a backup sensor. We'll be seeing this and everything else still secret about the next Prius when it makes it's official debut at the Detroit Auto Show in January. Until then, bask in the warm gaze of its potentially terrifying sentience. More » -

Overall, our impression is that they've certainly moved it in a more aggressive and distinct direction. A full comparison below the jump. More » -

2010 Toyota Prius Spotted, Ironically, At Gas Station
A next-generation 2010 Toyota Prius was snapped in full camo regalia filling up at a gas station. So what can we tell? Mainly that the Prius' has totally ripped off the styling of the new Honda Hybrid, differentiating their design with the addition of a small spoiler on the rear. Reports state, and these pictures seem to confirm, that the main visual changes to the 2010 Prius will be on the interior, with a much more integrated cockpit design taking the place of the tacked-on bins-'n-pods look of the current car. You can get your helping of hybrid smug — made-in-America by 2011, no less — midway through 2009, the tentative date for the Toyota vs. Honda hybrid battle royale! [Drive.com.au]

Detroit Auto Show Continues To Dominate, Snags New Toyota Prius And Lexus Hybrid Debuts
The Detroit News is reporting group vice president and general manager for Toyota of the Americas, Bob Carter, has confirmed the 2010 Toyota Prius will be debuting at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show and will be joined by a uniquely styled and appointed version for Lexus. The Prius was set to move upmarket relative to its former iterations, but with a Lexus version now on the way, Toyota's own marketplace may be getting crowded. But the bigger story is how this news makes things far more interesting for January's Detroit Auto Show. More » -

New Toyota Prius To Get Bigger, Smugger And Maybe Even Wagon, Convertible Versions
The folks over atWinding Road... err... NextAutos, have procured some more photos of the new Toyota Prius we caught earlier this month. The next-gen Prius was caught taking a couple turns around the block, showing off its new body and the expected to longer and wider size to give backseat passengers a bit more space and some added trunk storage and these new shots. The other additional features we've heard about — solar cells and a higher fuel economy — still can't be substantiated by these photos. However, NextAutos now adds another rumor to the list. More » -

Japanese Daily Reports Toyota To Boost Prius Output 70% In 2009
The super-best number one awesome automaker from the land of the rising sun is planning to flood the world with smug, cranking up output of its gas-electric Prius Hybrid 70% by the end of next year, according to the Nikkan Kogyo industry daily.

New Toyota Prius To Get Solar Panels As "Symbolic Gesture"
Toyota plans to install solar panels on the new Toyota Prius hybrid as a response to a "growing demand for green cars," reports Reuters. The panels will be supplied by Kyocera and would be able to power part of the air-conditioning as a "symbolic gesture" as it's "very difficult to power much more than that with solar energy." Yes, despite solar power not being "seen as a viable solution to power cars," you've got to give the super number one best awesome automaker from the land of the rising sun credit for trying to make that tint of marketing around the brand glow ever more green.
