    Judging from the video, I have a feeling the G4 Prius will look something like this. That is, if this isn't it. Looking at design ques from the video and in this photo, it looks pretty close.

    Looks like they get rid of the huge control center in the middle, which is I hated.

    After careful comparison with other spy shots of Gen IV, this looks like something different. The rear door windows are not the same, neither is the door handles or rear hatch. Rather it matches the Mirai very well, which makes me almost 100% sure that this is the production version of the Mirai. Look at other spy shots of Gen IV and see for yourselves!

    Sorry I see now that the rear hatch does not match the Mirai either, but the tail lights does. So what is this car? It could be Gen IV with close to Mirai design, OR it might be the Prius PHV that according to some sources could differ in design on next model (ns4 anybody?)

    Mirai at a gas station? Here's to hoping it's the PHV. I have the 1st gen PHV and love it. Time to bring on the competition to all PHV. Don't get me wrong I'm excited for a Gen IV as well, but at the moment I want to see what kind of PHV or van hybrids (or PHV) come out

    It could be a Hyundai's Prius killer hybrid.

    Either way, I do believe reports of saying the Gen IV will be revealed in September is correct.

    I also just read somewhere that the Volt 2.0 launch is in gen? This will square off with the 4th gen.

    Oh if history were to repeat itself we will see more leaks and the actual body mid August, right? :p

    Wow, this much stir over a masked car. I love it. I think I might go throw some cardboard on our proto and take it for a spin just to stir you all up. Where shall we drive to?

    Can someone photoshop the screen caps to make a panorama of the car so we can see the whole car?

    Thanks for confirming you have a prototype that you guys are not showing to us.

    Sure, throw the cardboards on (but don't tape them) and drive it around. :D
