Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Cross Traffic Alert are also available to make this new Prius pretty much crash-proof. Toyota says that the Prius Prime is meant to look like the future. The car is 2.4 inches longer, 0.6 inches wider and about an inch lower than its predecessor. This gives it better cargo room and gives the Prius Prime a road-hugging stance (although we aren't quite sold on that second part). The front fascia of this new hybrid is attractive with quad LED headlights that "glow like diamonds cutting the night," at least according to Toyota. In an ode to efficiency, the back end is still raised awkwardly, though Toyota says "The distinctive aero rear window is eye-catching and adds to its slipstream character." Whatever that means.
