The 2006 update gave the XW20 a lightly reworked nose, new gauges and rear seats moved to a new position. Side curtain airbags became standard from the 2007 model year, announced in 2006, and the car sold poorly in China that year, with only 2,152 units, because high duties made it far dearer than in Japan. It was model year 4 of 6 in the Toyota Prius (second generation, XW20), 2003 to 2008, coming after the 2005 model year and before the 2007 model year. Model year pages for the Toyota Prius run from 1997 to 2025.
