TOUCH TRACER DISPLAY: 2010 Prius Pushes All the Right Buttons

[ToyotaUSA]

Stay tuned: More Prius content videos are on the way...

1) Video is junk. Toyota, fire its creators, they do damage to you!

2) Why Toyota does not sell its Prius EV in USA as it does in Japan and Europe? WHY NOT IN USA??

3) When we will have Prius with Lithium batteries?

4) I love my 2007 Prius, but I hate to see these dummy covers on the left of dashboard where EV Controls are in Japanese versions of Prius!

where did you find they has Prius EV model in japan and europe? just a rumour i think.

[jgnmtz]

blah blah blah,, show me the darn features and the car being driven in the video. I need to see it to be drawn to the showroom. save the talk show for late nite tv ads.

[jcandelora]

Another worthless video.

[mafvosburgh]

Lame video - it should show the new display. I don't care what these people think - I want to see it for myself.

[tfcorbin6]

I agree with above comments. I hope the people who designed the car are smarter than those that decided to use talking heads. I'm so disappointed in these videos. A waste of time. And I'm a satisfied original '04 Prius owner with over 124,000 miles on it.

Agreed.  Especially when the email I got from Toyota says "Watch the Touch Tracer Video" - the way it's worded, I expected to see the display in action, not to just see a bunch of canned talking heads.

[htmlspinnr]

These weren't canned - we were asked questions and we gave our own responses.

[KieferSkunk]

I called it "canned" because each video I saw showed the same people in a row, all saying such positive things about the car. Usually when that happens, the people who appear have been paid to endorse the product. I'm sorry, that's the way it looked to me. In any event, what I really meant was that I wanted to see this combined with some hands-on demonstrations of the technology, but all I got to see were basically endorsements.

[htmlspinnr]

At the time these vids were released, we weren't allowed to show much else. They've since updated that.

We were invited to an event to see the cars before most anyone else (though not drive), and these were our impromptu reactions based on our experience. I was not paid to stand up and show my enthusiasm.

[KieferSkunk]

Understood. Thanks for explaining.

[matthewdsharp]

Please move the camera into the car and show the "touch tracer display." You can have people talking about it too.

[utwoube]

I agree, show it! What is the point Toyota--of "Video"?

[JodiW316]

I just bought a 2009 Prius. I am finding I am getting more than the est. 45 MPG.

I LOVE my new Prius. Best car I have ever owned and I am 55 years old

Ya think we could get the Toyota badge on the grill a little larger?

[th3homeslice]

I don't want to hear someone describe it. Show it to me!

Hi there. Check out "2010 Prius: Inside and Out" on YouTube for more close-up visuals and details about the Touch Tracer Display. Jump to 1:19 of the video to get right to the details. Sorry I was unable to post the link here (the system wouldn't allow).
