Exclusive: New Prius models to be named Prius V and Prius C

I wonder if the rear view will be better and less obstructed.

 

Well, Auto Sales - Markets Data Center - WSJ.com suggests that the Prius outsells the Yaris.

 

With the CT200h arriving in dealers in Spring of 2010, production will likely be starting very soon if it has not already started, I would think a "de-contented" Toyota version would also be ready for production. The CT200h brochures have already been delivered to dealers (see other thread), and some of the commercials have already appeared on Youtube. Yet, nothing from Prius. This added to the fact that Lexus is shifting toward not sharing platforms with Toyota, I don't see this as likely. It could be though. In January 2011 at the Detroit Autoshow, we will find out.

 

meh for creativity on the names.

 

No to both. The Prius FAR outsells the Yaris. The Prius FAR outsells each Scion model. For all of 09 and 2010 YTD, the Prius outsells all Scion models combined.

An easy way to look car sales for most major carmakers is to do a Google search for '[carmaker name] reports sales [month] [year]".
