Sounds like the prius runs hotter than the Insight. I have an sg2 and if its below 60 degrees out the temp stays at 179 once warmmed up. It seems to warm up fairly fast and holds its temperature til I bake. Then it can go down to 170s. I guess the prius 2nd cooling system for the hybrid system makes some heat of its own?
In the summer I see it go up to 202 without the ac on, then the fan comes on and cools it right down. WIth the ac on, any setting it stays about 184-186 with the same gril lblockage.
For fun I tried it totally blocked off and it did run the cooling fan frequently, but didnt see too much mroe than unblocking what I have.
