I forgot another nit (or rather 2 nits) - I live in New Zealand - we use Km, not miles, why on earth does the cruise control pop up and down 1.6km/hr (aka 1Mile/hr) - sometimes I can get it at 99km/hr or 101 but not 100 - really annoying, also something I could fix (as a programmer) in about 2 minutes - roll on an open source UI :-)


I have a similar problem with the 44km/hr speed where the Prius insists on turning on the gas motor - I drive down a steep hill to work every day - the silly car insists on warming up the motor and then shutting it down all the while charging the battery to full. The in-city speed limit here is 50km/hr (30Mph), I'm sure 44 was chosen as being slightly faster than the US 25Mph city speed limit, but we don't all live in the US .....

Both of these things are things that could be solved easily in software and delivered in a future software upgrade
