I reckon the Prius looks a little better then the Honda though. Those rims on the Honda hybrids I've seen around the place are horrid. It's as if the car was designed in 1983, and this is what they expected cars to look like in 2007. I'd still rather be in a Golf 2.0L TDi. Faster, better fuel economy. No batteries to maintain as such a critical level. No underpowered petrol engine. Steve I’ll agree to the looks. I reckon the Prius looks a little better then the Honda though.

One thing for sure though, can either Honda or Toyota design a decent looking Hybrid!!! I have nothing against them, sure they aernt performance based but if your looking for a daily driver they are a viable option.... but the current options are either true hybrid imitations (the Civic) or ugly (the Prius).
