As a state where hybrid cars are designed and dreamed up, it's no wonder Toyota Prius is such a hit in California. Toyota is in fact striking up huge numbers in the Golden State.

Both the sedan and Prius-V variants offers plenty of cargo room, but if you need a little more space, you might want to have a look at Camp-Inn, presently on display at the annual Tokyo Auto Salon. This" Prius Relax Cabin", design by Camp-Inn, is actually an extension of Prius rear hatch space… kind of a roof camper.

Camp-Inn's unit extends the Prius rear capacity, as well as protected roof storage by 20 inches. With your Prius rear seating folded down, Camp-Inn claims "two can sleep in the top bunk, and with the hybrid's rear seats folded down, another pair can catch 40 winks below."1

Of course, to use the new unit, you'll need to get a Prius first. There are many available at Capitol Toyota - 780 Salem Industrial Drive Ne in Salem, OR.
