    I'd bet Elon Musk can handle that if no one else can. Anyway, the buckets aren't as bad as the console but a bench makes it easier for ones sweetie to scooch over.

    The tire tread trim on the rear bumpers make me think the car's already been in an accident, like a Stupid Utility Vehicle tried to off-road up the back of it.

    Grilles aside, I like what William Gibson calls "the go faster folds" on the 4G Prius and the Prime.

    …reminds me of the "Go Faster Stripes"¹ seen on many cars of those would-be boy-racers I used to see when I lived back in Blighty before I moved here (USA) in the early 1980s! :)

    The 1990s saw the "Go Faster Wings" and "Go Faster Badges". Type R badges are worth 5hp!

    Ah! But you see, they’re really “Warp Folds” for aiding these Prii in folding time and space, allowing you to “trip the light(speed), fantastic” and get to your destination in....er....time, without causing disruptive temporal ripples in the space time continuum.
