    What are the differences between the III and IV? I think I want the III, but I'm not really sure what the IV offers?

    Also, does anyone have any kind of idea what a reasonable price would be for one?

    Thanks in advance! I'm excited about the Prius, but I'm considering buying a Honda Fit also.

    Someone here has posted the comparison information, but have you tried to looking on Toyota's website under the Prius specifications? You could also go down to your local dealer and get a print brochure. There are a few differences between the trim levels it mainly has to do with the options packages that you can get on each trim vehicle.

    The levels are explained in brochures linked here:

    I think you can also "build" a purchase on the site, which will give you the suggested retail.

    To me, a III is a glorified II while a IV is a water down V. Spend the money and get the Four.
