Vehicle History[]

The Toyota Prius (2009) is a casting by Matchbox that was originally supposed to debut in 2005, but was delayed and eventually debuted for the 2009 mainline. This casting has a number of MB774 and was originally in production from 2009 to 2011, and returned in 2016 until it was discontinued. A new casting was spun off, called the Toyota Prius Taxi.

It is unknown if this casting will ever be used again even as Mattel has reclaimed the license for Toyota.

Card description[]
