    1. The Prius Prime does not come with a light gray interior at all; cloth or softex. (Honestly, just going to Toyota's website and trying to configure a Prius Prime would have answered that question for yourself.)

    2. No. No one has seen images of the black cloth seats in the Prime yet. The only Primes made available to the press were XSE and XSE+ trims, and both of those come with the black softex. It will probably be late May before the first SE with cloth makes its way to a dealership and someone can snap a picture.

    but

    3. Just look for a video of a regular Prius LE with the black interior to get the basic idea. While the seats in the Prime aren't exactly the same, the material should be. The Prime will have some red stitching and accents, plus some extra bolstering in the front seats.

    If they’re similar to rav4 prime’s fabric you’ll find it looks ok and wears well.

    Can of scotch guard helped the stain resistance.

    Wow! I thought they would offer the same interior color options as the Prius hybrid, but with the Prime sport stripe added. I guess they are trying to cut costs by offering only 1 interior color. I think that's a mistake.

    agreed, it is a mistake for me anyway.
