In a rare pre-release opportunity, Hobbit test-drives the 2010 Prius: . . I will say that foot technique during glides has changed in some interesting ways; we're going to have a lot of fun with this. The car also has gotten some astounding high-tech upgrades to its CVT driveline, after we thought it couldn't get any better: . . which gives the driver much finer control over ratios and engine RPM, as well as allowing complete final-drive disconnect for coasting! No more worries about overspinning MG1. . _H*
