I can't figure out why the link wouldn't work. I checked it again and it's coming up for me.
I found the package displayed on the Sims 3 homepage; it was one of the featured items near the bottom left corner.
It might take a few refreshes to come up.
Alternatively, it also shows up in the Branded Content area of the Store.

The package includes the archived content and a separate download for the new plug-in hybrid.

Both links won't work for me - Whenever I tried to access the search result on Mandamouse's link I'd get the 404 thing. Probably a bug with the site that only some people are facing. I'm on Chrome, by the way.

I am using Chrome and this is the link I used to download the additional content - http://store.thesims3.com/prius.  You can also click here if that is easier.  This link also works on IE as I just checked it out.

Enjoy!

That link doesn't work for me.  I get the 404 - Page Not Found message.  Would you please double check it?  :)

I get the same page as Pam, with all the links.
By the way, does yours also show a picture of a baby in the dishwasher? ???
Problem? Don't panic! There is always a solution. You just have to find it  :D

Did you try the links I gave?  I just tried them again and went right to the correct page. 

If anything, go to the store, then click the 'Branded Content' link on the left (right above the Transportation' link).  The newer Prius is the the first one to choose from.  The picture looks like this:

For those of you having difficulty viewing and downloading the new Prius, change your language setting to English - United States and you will be able to download it. Mine was English - United Kingdom before and I couldn't even see the Prius, let alone download it. After downloading, you can change your language setting back.

Thanks for that Amyrose! You are right and now it works! :)

Edit: You Americans have some nice branded content. In my language I also do not see the "Fiesta Urban Streetscape" or the "Ford Focus Thrill Seeker". In Dutch I have something you don't though: "Positieve Energiepakket" which means Positive Energy Package and that is a Renault Twizy. Might be nice for the ones interested ;)

I was browsing through the Sims VIP site news earlier and came across these two links. One is for a Katy Perry Poster for those interested in her stuff and the other is the Lunar Lakes Rocks that were left out.

Will the rocks be useful if you don't have Lunar Lakes?

I didn't see anything that said it required actually having Lunar Lakes on the page when I checked it.

@enchanted: I think the question was asking if they would look out of place in any town other than LL and not if they would work without LL

They probably would since nothing in that town really looks like anything else, but you never know what might appeal to some and not appeal to others.

Hey Everyone! Thanks for posting all these cool freebies. I was wondering if anyone knew if there are any wedding related stuff that are freebies in the Sims store or if there are any freebies look-a-likes that would do the job. I've always wanted to actually make an awesome wedding and reception but never have because I don't have good enough clothing or decor!

Thanks

KDC.

Greetings Kimdacutie! To be honest there isn't much out there that's free and suitable for a wedding ceremony. I think these two are the best though.

Diva Dress This can be a nice wedding dress.

Valentine's Day Set The cupid statue would look nice in a wedding ceremony I think.

This all I could find that would be nice. There's probably more but I think these are the best.
