Well said. Further, why do Hybrids go so far out of their way to look like Hybrids? How about making one that looks like a car?

I'd happily drive a Prius if only it didn't look so Priussy. It just screams "I'm a smug jackass driving a Prius!" I'm all about saving the planet and all, but I don't want to look like I'm rubbing everybody's face in it.



Because they're all dealing with relatively similar problems with weight and drag.

The flip side of 'why do hybrids have to look like hybrids' is the Chevy Volt. That car's final design looks as bland and unremarkable as the last few revisions of the Malibu. Is that really a better alternative?
