2010 Prius - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Anyone notice the headlights being different on the first two photos?

One of them has to be a fake although "confirmed real by Toyota." The second almost looks Mazda3'ish.

Unless one of the headlights is supposed to be longer than the other and it also seems that in the first pic, there's a small bommerang like what Nissan is doing to all of the newer models to come (Maxima first and now the upcoming Z redesign).

there are also spy shots of the car in testing that seem to match the leaked photos which makes it even less likely they are faked... we will know for sure in Detroit in January I guess

Regardless, I still think that Hybrids are overpriced and overdone. An Aygo or a Yaris with a turbodiesel would get about the same MPG that a Prius would reach here in the states. At a fraction of the cost.

Remember that a Prius is noteably good for about 45mpg, nothing huge of a number. Better than the past, but obtainable even with a petrol only engine.

About ten percent better than the Yaris's cD of 0.29.

The Chevy volt looks nice.

Hybrids are rediculous IMHO. All that extra money for a car that gets less mileage than a diesel. Well there is the "looking down on everyone else for killing the planet" factor.
