    Hello all!

    I was doing some research on what's coming for the Prius in 2025, and besides the release of the Nightshade Edition, I found it interesting that the PHEV will no longer be known as the Prime. Apparently Toyota wants to make the drive train differences more obvious to the average car buyer, so the Prius and RAV4 are both going back to the original Plug-In Hybrid badging. I figure it's not really that important of a change but I wanted to hear everyone's thoughts. :D
