    Just saw it on Toyota.com. They have had that color in Japan since 2012.

  4. Finally they updated the prius c page on their site.

    In the 2014 brochure, they simplified a lot in their "Features" table compared to the previous year. Some info (i.e. "Tilt/telescopic...with voice controls") is removed. I imagine that voice controls on the steering wheel are still on only the packages 3 and 4, as with the 2013 model, though the 2014 brochure no longer explicitly clarifies this.


    Oh yeah, I mean: Anyone have new pics of the sunburst yellow?

    Me too! Kiiroi daisuki desu. In 2012 when I bought my C2 I really wanted the yellow - looked at the Moonglow, Habanero and the Summer Rain. Summer Rain struck my fancy and I ordered one. Wish they imported the yellow back then.

    I saw the new yellow one at my local dealer yesterday. Personally I don't like yellow cars ( taxiiiieee) but to each his own. I am going in for an oil change tomorrow morning and I will take some pics and post tomorrow.

    They have been on sale for several weeks in my area, but have not seen a yellow one on the road yet? Maybe an unpopular color like Habanero.

    Sun Fusion.:) I still want one but my 2012 has only 20,000 miles on it and I couldn't justify buying a new car. Servco Toyota website in Hawaii still lists the 2013 Cs and no yellow.

    Plus I like the Summer Rain...maybe I can convince the wife unit that we need another extra car.:D

    Saw one of the new yellow ones at a dealership. Fun color, but so close to taxicab yellow, I wondered if it would cause any confusion since many taxis around here are yellow Prius liftbacks or v's. Imagine someone on a Saturday night after a couple drinks seeing the front end and hailing a random c.! (On the other hand could come in handy if you're planning to join Lyft. ;-) )

    Noticably, they haven't changed the mileage estimate - it still says 53 MPG, though the footnote says "2013 EPA-estimated 53 city/46 highway/50 combined mileage".

    I also noticed they no longer offer a flat White color, they only have Moonglow now.
