I can't bring myself to liking the Prius, I don't like its proportions and dislike the CVT gearbox. However, its smaller sibling, the Aqua, is a rather cute little car. Doesn't fair better driving wise, but it is more of a looker

If i decide to ever recreate the Rich Boy prius
I will definately make it so it has the power limited as much as Gran Turismo will allow you to, 200kg Ballast, so it literally can't move. Just like the description of it says!

Good idea, might try that to see the results :P

If it doesn't allow you to limit the power to 50%, basially, i found this exploit, if you upgrade the engine fully, limit it to 50%, and take the upgrades off of it, the engine will be limited more than the stock engine would potentially, if at all could be limited(didn't really try the regular prius' tuning options) i found that exploit while messing with the Fiat 500F
 
I think the closest I have ever come to a Prius is all these pictures on this thread ...and I think I might have seen one going in the opposite direction once on the highway. For me that is just about as close as I want to ever get. I will not be getting it in GT6 either ...I am scared I will get Prius all over my HD monitor ...naaaasty ...

Nice pics though and the thread is a good read. Well done OP!

Unfortunately they're having problems with the 2nd electric motor. I think on the previous race or one before that they trouble after a pit stop and withdrew, but when it does work it's quite fast. The CRZ is doing good tho. Regardless I'm rooting for them.
 
This thread is making me want to start my own car family!! it's so neat that each car has its personality :) My favorite's definitely the rally Prius!

Oh I see, the Aqua (or Prius 'small') isn't sold in the UK, but you can get the same drivetrain in the Yaris. :)

It's that magic gearbox which houses the hybrid system. If its a Toyota (or Lexus) and makes economical sense to fit the Hybrid System, then it can be fitted. The list of cars that have this system, is as follows;
