    About to order a Prius V, but after extensively discussing all possible options and accessoiries :) there's still one left: parking sensors.

    As far as I can tell there's no option for parking sensors rear / front for a Prius V / Prius Wagon, or is there?

    Does anybody have a picture of sensors mounted on a V, especially on the front?

    I have a fully loaded V5 with everything. There appear to be some sensors on the corners (probably for the self parking stuff), but none on the front or back (like sonar).

    I just realised... if the fully loaded has adaptive cruise control, why couldn't they use the same sensors for front parking sensors?

    That's a good question. BTW, the dynamic radar CC works quite well! I'm just concerned that when I slow down that quickly (someone pulls right in front of me), does the car flash my brake lights???
