    Hi all,

    I did a search, but could not find the answer. Do all Prius have the bladder in the gas tank, or only the ones sold in the US?

    The European Prius has no bladder. I think you should be able to find out if yours has one by checking the capacity of the fuel tank in your manual:
    • 45 liters: you have the bladder
    • 50 liters: no bladder
