    dont see issue with one in the snow. FWD cars usually cope rather nicely.

    As I said before older priuses didn't look that bad, still a bit ugly but not worse than a lot of other Japanese cars, the newer ones however are just terrible looking, it's like they tau
    Really? Here they are extremely common, I saw at least 3, possibly 4 in a somewhat small parking lot all at the same time... and a nissan juke.
    I see them everywhere... and it's normally the newer vomit inducing models.

    Drop a small block v8 in the rear and call it a day. Imagine how many feelings you'd hurt in a 500rwhp prius. Have a really quiet muffler on it too. engine Swap the world.

    It looks like SHIT.

    It looks like the designer smoked his socks while drawing this. It looks like he did this while being a busy socker mom, making food, making food for 30 kids and making sure they get to practice in time in 12 different locations. It looks like the designer is totally burned out.

    It's just messy.

    BeamNG devs can't make real cars because they'll have to pay big money for licensing. However, it would be nice to have a car which is parallel to the prius in the BeamNG universe, at least on a functional level.

    "I'm not talking about the civic in your driveway" Was one of the first things he said, I feel like that would apply to priuses too, The wing just doesn't seem like it wouldn't do much more than add weight and drag, normal cars don't need good handling or braking especially at high speeds.

    True. The prius doesn't need a wing (and doesn't really have one) given that it's an economy car above all else.
