2015 Toyota Prius v facelift bows in Los Angeles

The Los Angeles Auto Show has hosted the world premiere of the 2015 Toyota Prius v scheduled to go on sale in the near future. The model is a little bit more aggressive than the 2014MY in terms of design thanks to a tweaked front grille and updated headlights. Clients are able to select from fresh new body colors such as Absolutely Red, Attitude Black Metallic along with Toasted Walnut Pearl. On the inside the changes are subtle but we should mention the Entune infotainment system with a 6.1-inch screen, along with a new eight-way power driver’s seat providing power lumbar support.
