Is there a Solar option with Prius Gen 4?

Has anyone heard if a Solar Roof Ventilation system is being offered on the Gen 4 Prius? There has been no mention that I can find anywhere.

I'm in the process of deciding whether to commit to an end-of-Gen3 or wait till Gen 4.

thanks.

 

Thanks for that. Do you know if it has remote activation of Air Conditioning like top models of Gen 3?

 

Thanks. My FORD Focus Diesel (2008) had that too - holding "UNLOCK" on the key fob for 4 seconds would open all windows (similarly, "LOCK" would put them up). VW did the same thing on some models.

Wouldn't be as good as the Solar Ventilation or Remote A/C, but better than not having it.

It seems odd that it's OFF by default.

 

You could be right - though with the Focus, I needed to deliberately hold the button down for about 4 seconds - very difficult to do by accident.

Where I live, hot, semi-tropical Australia, I used it ALL the time when I had that car - I guess if the designer was in a cold climate, they may see the issue differently. Air Conditioning is used most of the year, the heater rarely. Here, we hear about "heated seats" - and wonder - why. And snow - that's something I see on Christmas card photos or the news (never actually seen it).
