i read/ heard somewhere that to save money toyota used some camry suspension parts on the new prius. the results were that the new prius has a great ride and is more standardized. sound goofy? i do know that the ride is now very nice and firm fred from nashville
It is said the 2010 Prius uses the chassis and suspension platform from Toyota Auris. Toyota UK: Auris Ken@Japan
The Camry has four wheel independent suspension. The 10 Prius has the same suspension components as the 09 Corolla with torsion bar rear suspension.
