I want to know how much it'll cost to replace the gigantic rear bumper panel :lol:
The rest: overstyled.

 

[Mitchi]

Fuck me that's ugly.

Wow, they were definitely "inspired" by the Mirai.

The first 3 generations could be seen as quirky but inoffensive - one could put up with the styling for the MPG. This on the other hand...yikes.

It'll either go two ways:

Fanbois and California's eco-concious wealthy who don't want a Tesla for some reason will pick it up but the "I'm only in it to save gas" masses will skip it, thus prompting a emergency refresh in year 2.

This rolling eyesore will be seen everywhere, especially if the MPG gains are huge and gas prices swing back up.

Kinda hoping for the former.

I hope this generation addresses the interior. It's downright unacceptable (even for a modern day Toyota interior...not exactly a high bar to climb in most of their cars if I'm honest.) in the current car, especially given what a Prius costs.

If we are really lucky and Toyota's current styling direction continues, the restyle will be just as weird, only different and sales will stay in the tank.

Jesus Christ that's hideous. It's a boring people mover, Toyota just needs to embrace that.

Good God.

 

[Twinport]

Any early word on whether or not it has pure EV, plug in range, ala Volt?

see miley, what all your twerking has lead to?

Toyota had to secure the award for the ugliest mass-produced vehicle by introducing the second ugliest mass-produced vehicle. Well done.
