DEBUNKED! 2011 Toyota Prius MPV Shots Merely Renderings

Earlier today we published a story from a user TRYMEE that featured a first glimpse of the 2011 Toyota Prius MPV. The only problem with that is the shots aren't real.

According to our friends at Carscoop, the image was derived from a photoshop from Japan's Best Car magazine. A photoshop of a photoshop? You betcha.

However, there is a silver lining to this story: as Carscoop points out, the 2011 Prius MPV probably will not look much more exciting than what is shown.

Besides that, "our bad."


Not that we expect the actual production version of the upcoming 2011 Toyota Prius MPV (or whatever else the Japanese maker names the hybrid minivan) to look any more exciting than the vehicle shown in the black-and-white picture above, but just to set things straight, what you see here is an older photoshop created by Japan's Best Car magazine and not the real deal as some hastily baptized...
