Toyota unleashes new set of Prius teasers

The Detroit introduction of the 2010 Toyota Prius is just around the corner, but that hasn't stopped Toyota from releasing a new set of teaser images ahead of the main event, scheduled to take place just 19 days from now. First up is a door handle that looks like it may have a sensor on it, possibly as part of the keyless entry system. Next up is an illuminated "Toyota" logo that we're guessing could indeed light up with the headlamps.
Perhaps the two most interesting new shots are of the engine bay, for obvious reasons, and the front headlight. There was some debate on whether the previously-released shots of the third-gen Prius were legit since they clearly showed two different headlight configurations. Our guess is that the design team was still making detail choices on the new hybrid, and it appears now that the slightly more radical of the two lamp configuration was the ultimate winner.

I thought that when I drove a Prius it was "slow torture".

Made in Japan, shipped over on a smoke pollution belching boat, all propped up with my US Tax dollars. No more incentives to buy a foreign car. If you want it, you pay for it!

Are you kidding. Looks like this car got hit in the rear by a tractor trailer. I was looking for a great car like my 2006. I am disappointed to say the least.
