    This might sound like a dumb question, but I really need some advice here. I bought a certified Prius C from official Toyota dealer, but now when I look back at all the documents, I cannot really see which sub model it really is. All I know is that it is 2013 Prius C. I entered VIN number in one of the sites and it says Trim One, but not sure if that site is reliable. Any pointers? Thanks in advance.

    Do you have adjustable headrests for the front seats? The Prius c One has a one-piece seatback that includes an integrated headrest. The Prius c Two, Three and Four have a regular seat with a height adjustable front headrest (and the headrest is removeable). That's the biggest difference.

    Prius c One:

    Prius c Two or Three w/ cloth seats:

    The headrests for front seats are adjustable. Does it mean that it is definitely not "One"?

    Split folding backseat or one piece? Cloth or Softex interior? Navigation?

    Backseat can be folded in split, yet. Seating is cloth covered, I guess, I am not sure what softex really is. Did not come with navigation system.

    Sounds like you have a 2. If you have cruise control and split folding rear seats. Then you have a C2.

    I second this. No nav means a 1 or 2, split rear seat means 2 and up. You have a c2.

    Softex is for animal lovers that doesn't want cloth seats

    Mine is a 2013 with covered front seats, no split in the back and cruise control. From Canada.
    I am sure it's a 1.

    Good year for the C
