The Prius marque would be the company’s third home-grown family of cars, and could even get its own sales network. Due on sale in 2011, the estate – inspired by the Hybrid X concept seen at March’s Geneva Motor Show – will spearhead the move. It will follow close on the heels of a new five-door model, which is expected to replace the current car as early as 2009.
This is set to be powered by a 1.6-litre turbo engine, mated to a more efficient hybrid system. Previously, Toyota has hinted it would use lithium-ion batteries to create a vehicle capable of returning up to 100mpg.

Thanks for the laugh.
Back to this possible Prius Wagon that would be sweet. Any vehicle that uses less fuel so I don't have to go to the pump so often is fine with me.
