2010 Toyota Prius

There are two different schools of thought regarding the Toyota Prius hybrid. Some see it as the future of transportation — a roomy family car that uses about half the fuel of a typical mid-size sedan. Other see it as the anti-car, a joyless, soulless form of transportation completely lacking in the character which car fanatics love so much. Personally, I can see both side of the argument — and apparently so can Toyota, because they’ve attempted to imbue the all-new Prius with something the old car lacked: Personality. Has it worked? Find out in my 2010.

2010 Lexus HS 250h

There are a lot of people who think Lexus’ new HS 250h hybrid is nothing but a tarted-up Toyota Prius with leather seats and a sedan shell. I actually thought that myself, to the point where I spent a full two days trying to come up with a funny way to combine “Lexus” and “Prius” into one word.
