    Physically, yes but the Prime will have a different tuning setup since it's heavier.

    (Also there are different suspension settings depending whether you get the regular non-Touring Prius models with the 15" wheels or the Touring models with the 17" wheels)

    Ok, good to know. Im gonna assume that aftermarket sway bars and chassis braces will work on the prime? Thanks for the reply!

    They're all assumptions. I don't have a definitive answer but using logic, it seems reasonable that they'll work. (But there's always the outside chance that there's a different bolt or bolts)
