electric rear axle, gas up front... kind of a backwards mullet? I actually think hybrids, especially serial ones that lean heavily on the electric motor side of things, are a great idea + that had it not been for GM intervention, we'd already have a hybrid saab... *but*, I don't get the appeal of the prius (other than it was the first on the block, sort of)...
I did like Jeremy Clarkson's "M5 gets better fuel economy than Prius" stunt... driving habits matter a fair bit...
we don't drive 25k miles per year per car (or even half that on the sum total of 3 saabs)... that might be your problem...
my bike gets way better fuel economy than a Prius, is better for the environment, better for me, and costs less... I'm not trying to be holier than thou, just presenting the facts... ;-)
