What does TOM's Racing body kit feature? The answer hides in the extensive updates found all over the body of the car. At the front for instance we see a brand new bumper that features black elements surrounding the new DLRs and making the front fascia a little bit more aggressive.
The front is also characterized by custom front lip spoiler, while the sides – by extended skirts that pass by large multispoke alloy wheels, measuring at least 19-inches. The suspension is also new and it brings the car a little bit lower to the ground.
The aero changes at the rear are also to be mentioned. They comprise of a new bumper, competitive diffuser and four tailpipes that give an impression of a really powerful engine under the hood of the Prius. Unfortunately, this isn't true because the experts at TOM's Racing didn't speak of any applied changes to the hybrid powertrain. So we have to deal with the standard 121 hp (89 kW). We are definitely looking forward to reading your opinion in the comment section below.
