If you do a search for the 2009 Prius (coming out in Spring 09), you will find the next generation will produce much more power and much better MPG than the current model. When a vehicle has adequate power, comfort and 60 MPG, I'm afraid I will have to give it serious consideration when my lease is up in 2010. Meanwhile, I will enjoy the power, comfort , versitility and style of my EDGE.
