Lexus to get its own Prius for 2009 Detroit show {Autoblog Green}

Mar 2nd 2008 7:04PM A Lexus Prius will sell, if the feature content supports the price differential. Just picked up my Prius this week and did a short term lease in anticipation of the Lexus version coming soon. I agree that the package content on the current Prius is impressive but a few other items (definitely heated seats), upgraded leather, sharper styling, more bling overall will work. With gas prices nearing $3.75 / gallon here in So. Cal, I had to wait a month to get the Prius I wanted. Besides, the concept of greater content / sharper style has worked for Lexus before. Witness the Toyota Camry / Lexus ES.
