Anyway, I'm not too surprised to hear they didn't like it <10/10ths. The past couple articles from other publications that have been released where they drive the car on the road have alluded to the car being "almost boring" when just cruising around. It makes me think that the steering and chassis don't wake up and communicate until it's literally at the limit of adhesion, which makes me think the much derided Prius tires are really the key to the cars fun.

see i did an interesting test, i went from my ultra high performance summer sticky tires to low rolling resistance tires, and my car became funner, but at the same time i didnt feel as safe in the rain, but did learn a lot about my cars behavior at the limit, now i live at that limit, the chassis on my car is pretty damn good for a street car, and this car is supposed to be better, and about the same speed
i could personally care less how fast it is, if its too slow ill add power, if it doesnt turn as hard as i want to ill throw sticky rubber on it...
