    The image above is from the 2016 Prius Owner's Manual for the US. In providing the different inflation pressures, the owner would have to conclude they are dependent on the tire's rating, but Toyota is letting the owner infer that rather than be explicit about it. Why?

    And for future readers, Type A (36/35 PSI) is for the Two and Three. See @bhtooefr's post below.

    Thought I read somewhere else that the Eco had recommended pressures of 39/37 or thereabouts ...

    Type A is for the Two and Three.

    Type B is for no US-spec car.

    One, Two Eco, and Four don't have a spare, and therefore aren't in that list.

    Crap, did I remember it incorrectly?

    Yeah it's 39/36....


    I'll fix my post. Thanks!

    Also, I don't know why his version of the US manual is different from mine. Here's what mine says
