Doesn't look horribly offensive but probably boring as hell to drive
The plug in Prime should have about 220 hp, and a 0-60 in the mid 6's. Kind of like a GTI from 10 years ago. Probably won't handle great, but should be quick enough to feel decent.

The plug-in Prius Prime boasts a nearly 100 hp increase. Toyota USA did not mention the battery size, but it's most likely the same as the Euro-spec model. The new 13.6-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack pushes the power up to 220 hp, resulting in a 0-60 mph time of 6.6 seconds.

Can't believe they did that many hashtag thing on the interior.

Personally, I don't hate the styling. I guess 7.5 to 60 isn't bad, but I wonder if that was the AWD model. Fuel economy doesn't seem to be as good as it should be though compared to some of the other hybrid offerings.
