In 2007 federal and Californian regulators ranked the Prius among the least polluting cars on sale in America for smog forming emissions. Side curtain and torso airbags were standard on 2007 American cars, and in July Toyota won approval in Japan and the United States to test plug-in hybrids on public roads. It was model year 5 of 6 in the Toyota Prius (second generation, XW20), 2003 to 2008, coming after the 2006 model year and before the 2008 model year. Model year pages for the Toyota Prius run from 1997 to 2025.
