I came home from Autozone, pulled into the driveway and in my parking space was THIS THING:



I walked into the kitchen and said "Hey, someone left their suppository in my parking spot."

One girl (stepbrother's friend) timidly replies, "Oh... yeah... umm... its my mom's."

Why must a hybrid vehicle look like it was meant to be swallowed or inserted? If this is 'futuristic' then I'm building a god damn time machine.

I would have to agree all the hybrid cars do look rather stupid. They belong on the Jetsons.

looks like crap, the only "good" looking hybrid car is the hybrid civic because, um, it looks like a regular civic.

In real life it gets 40-45mpg. Not worth the style tradeoff. I do like the Civic HX and Ford Escape hybrid. I've always hated the Lexus RX330/RX330h.

I might get one for a DD. Between that and an insight.

4-dr civics are ugly pieces of garbage. If they would make a hybrid civic coupe I'd hop on it.

Aerodynamics... with a small power output and overall smaller engine they can be made more aerodynamic to improve highway speed acceleration and fuel economy.

well the altima hybrid will be coming out in about a year or 2 years i think, from what i remember it doesnt look bad at all, i also remember that they are buying some of the toyota-developed drivetrain technology for their own use instead of spending the R&D money themselvs.

When they design a hybrid car that actually looks good and is affordable, I'll get one.

The 10-20 extra mpg isn't enough for me to buy a fugly arse car.
