So I saw one of these in person for the first time today. Looks pretty good. I could do without the black plastic strip on the bumpers, but overall I consider it a reserved, sensible design. So rare nowadays it seems. Certainly much more pleasing to the eye than the new Prius design.

I would be hard-pressed to name another current vehicle uglier than the latest Prius, but there are quite a few good 2nd place runner-ups for that title (Civic to name one). Amazing how aesthetics vary so much from person to person, eh? Eye of the Beholder and all that.

Has the same stupidly oversized front bumper housings like the current Civic does - except even worse.

The alloy wheels look pretty good though...
