While the Japanese concern started to "put the puzzle" of the new minivan from Toyota Prius  photo-teaser paparazzi staged an informal photo shoot car, catching the family Prius modification during testing on the roads of Europe.
Seven-seat Toyota Prius hybrid car drove to the tests under the protection of black and white bedspreads, under which the photographs are distinguishable shape grille, head-optics and rear LED lights. As written by Auto Express, thanks to the fact that the hybrid Prius hatchback minivan higher and longer than about 250 mm, Toyota engineers managed to place inside the third row of seats designed for two passengers.
It is assumed that the new Japanese giant will have gasoline-electric power plant with total capacity of 136 hp, which is completed and the hatchback Prius, but instead of a nickel-hydride batteries estate equip a new set of lithium-ion battery company Panasonic. The increase in weight minivan will make it more low-speed and hog compared to hatchbacks, whose consumption per 100 km on the combined cycle is less than 3.9 liters.
