    How can I determine which package I have on my 2006 ?
    I have Nav, Smart Start,Smart Lock, Bluetooth, 15 inch wheels

    May be a way to use the VIN # to figure it out?

    No leather or sunroof.

    In '06 there was the normal Prius with 15" wheels which you probably have. There was also a Touring Edition with 16" wheels, a slightly modified rear suspension, and a bigger spoiler. Not all of the packages listed above by Ursle were available with the Touring Edition.

    I do not remember the term model being used at all. I think PC started using it when the Gen III (2010 year model) came out because, in addition to the different option packages, there were versions I, II, III, IV and V (now called one through five).

    No, you're not missing anything--the VIN doesn't contain that level of detail.
