Ordered from https://www.wholesalefordpartsfast.com/ who had the best price ($294.46). I also ordered my Ford MME floor and cargo mats from the same place. Great service. The cover was backordered so it did take two months to come in. Now for the review. The cover is very form fitting (see pic below) and is thin - no padding. So, It will protect from dust, leaves, water, sun (has not rained yet, so no comment on whether it's waterproof). Love the logos on the side, back and front. Elastic at the bottom so it should take stiff winds. The mirrors have form fitting pockets and there is a flap for the charge door. I'm afraid opening the flap and charging with the cover on is not practical, as the cooling vents are blocked by the cover. It probably could be modified with some sewing skills but I don't think it would be worth the effort - just don't charge when covered.
Is it worth it? For the outlined purposes, yes. For heavier duty protection - not so much. My $69 Amazon cover for my Prius V is lined and heavier duty, but also is not very form fitting. So if you need a lightweight cover that fits really well, has MME logos and have an extra $300 - go for it. If you need heavier duty protection, look elsewhere. But you will probably spend $300 or more for one that is form fitting.
