2012 Toyota Prius V Five with Advanced Technology Package (ATP)

If you don't own a business, aren't a technologist or don't have a geek streak then skip this ad. The car will seem over-priced unless you know you're driving a very limited edition "All Tech Package" ATP Prius. It's Toyota's version of the Google Car.

This is a $5,000 add-on that allows the car to park itself (parallel or back in), avoid collision using  active radar, increase milage significantly when you "let the computer drive", receive gps rerouting tips based on traffic and weather ahead (Sirius data feed).

The ATP charges and syncs your iPhone or Android, has voice calling, voice navigation and mobile apps for further control.
 A high tech car is nice. A high-tech, high-touch hybrid that is constantly looking out for you is amazing. I bought this Prius with the Advanced Technology Package because I use my mobile device constantly, make and receive a lot of phone calls, wanted radar anti-collission because it's proactive, radar cruise control so that I could drive 3 hours up state always moving at the rate of traffic in the fast lane but always 3 car lengths back so I avoided tickets.

I went with the harddrive based GPS because it is so fast and so sophisticated that it politely informs you of a thunderstorm or traffic accident 20 miles ahead and asks if you would like to detour around the incident. The USB plug charges your phone, the bluetooth sync tells you who's calling as well as dial by name, all the while you're sitting in a 4 door hatchback that is reporting 99 mpg as you scream along at 75.

The published specs for mileage are the ones I use to represent this cars energy performance. But I will say that as I learned to let the ATP do more of the driving for me and as I learned which transmission settings to use when, the Prius V Five ATP with lifetime Sirius radio and digital traffic and digital weather treated me right. Oh and yes, this is the car that parallel parks itselfs in spots you wouldn't try on your own.

Passengers have plenty of leg room, their own AC vents, a giant retractable fabric sun roof that essentially transforms the car into a glass topped convertible. Awesome when in Manhattan or the mountains. The rear hatchback holds a log of groceries covered by a retractable privacy cover in case what you're toting is tall. With the passenger seats folded down there's enough room that I was able to move a furniture and bankers boxes. This great deal also comes with a set of brand new tires.

The Prius V Five ATP has a lower total cost of ownership from age 2 forward than all other competitors, which was the final reason I bought it. These were supposed to be the "I told you so" years. But I just don't use it enough and a great car needs to be driven, not stored indoors at a garage.

Toyota issues stop sale on 6 key models over seat fabrics; recall possible? [UPDATE]

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

Toyota has issued a stop-sale order on six of its core models due to concerns about the flammability of certain seat fabrics. The issue rests not with the cloth and leather covers themselves, but with a piece of seat heater beneath them that fails to meet US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for flame retardancy.
There have been no reports of fires or injuries from the affected cars, which include some of Toyota's biggest volume sellers. 2013 and 2014 Camry, Camry Hybrid, Avalon and Sienna models equipped with heated seats are included in the stop-sale, as are 2014 Tundra pickups and Corolla sedans. The exact number of vehicles with the non-compliant materials are still being tabulated, according to The Detroit Free Press.
According to a Toyota spokesman, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been notified, although it remains to be seen if a recall will be issued. Outside of a full recall, though, it's unclear how Toyota will deal with vehicles equipped with the flammable materials that have already found homes.

Toyota reveals Tokyo Motor Show concepts

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Toyota is getting ready for the Tokyo Motor Show later this month, and to tease us, the Japanese automaker has released photos and information about the concept vehicles it'll be bringing to the show. In all, there'll be five world premieres from Toyota (six if you split the Voxy and Noah minivan concepts), including some vehicles that'll be released in the near future, and others that need more time to incubate.
Let's get the world premieres out first. Toyota is a pioneer of gasoline-electric hybrids, but it's also pursuing hydrogen fuel cell-powered vehicles. The clearest indication of this is the FCV concept, a hydrogen-powered sedan in the same vein as the the FCV-R that will bow at the auto show. (Read more about the FCV, here.)
Other world debuts include the FV2 concept (pictured), a unique, one-seat future vehicle that emphasizes the "Fun to Drive" philosophy; the JPN TAXI concept, a next-generation taxi concept designed with Japanese hospitality in mind; and the Voxy and Noah concepts, next-generation minivans that differ most in exterior design cues and are scheduled to launch in the Japanese market in early 2014.
