    I'm hoping someone is able to answer my question.

    I'm wanting to know if there is a design difference from the 2010, 2011, and 2012 Prius hatchback. Specifically the undercarriage near the rear bumper. Did Toyota move things around, ex. exhaust, frame size, etc. Or are they basically the same and the differences are more cosmetic on the outside?

    To my knowledge the frame remained the same, as did the undercarriage.
    It was more of a cosmetic upgrade
