If you wished that the Prius could ferry more passengers, your wish could be coming true as Toyota has unveiled the first teaser image of the Prius MPV.

While the company declined to release additional information, the MPV, which is possibly called the Alpha, is marginally larger than the standard Prius. This means we can expect a spacious interior with seating for up to seven people.

Under the hood, power will likely be provided by the familiar 1.8-litre petrol engine and an electric motor. This should give the MPV a combined output of 134bhp. While nothing is official, look for a possible introduction at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show.
