So you are saying we should all buy a Prius so we can get these kinds of images? I wonder how many of the techie obsessed crowd will consider this.

I wouldn't bother. The Toyota Auris is very weird to drive because it has no gears, so going up hills the engine is screaming and forward speed does not increase much .It is handy for creeping up on stuff sometimes though
