I think Toyota is purposely keep it futuristic and stuff like that. If they didn't people would bitch and moan that it looks like its other cars and call it boring.   Or say there's nothing to distinct this halo hybrid car. To some that's good, to others they want to stand out. But that's why Toyota did that to the Camry and others. If you don't like the Prius but want the hybrid get those cars.

Well ya, of course it will sell, they can't even make those things fast enough to keep up with demand. But if I were buying a 50+ mpg car I would wish I could go really green without looking so "green".
