Prius underneath, uncool. FWD luxo brand, uncool. Entry level Lexus, uncool. There are only a couple of cool hybrids and this isn't one of them.

I want to know the motivation behind that.

This is a much more attractive package.

Attractive, yes. But it's a four door hybrid hatch. It screams that it should be practical. But the Prius is a more practical car with a good bit more head and leg room in the back. I love the look of the car but wish it had a different drivetrain.

Uncool.

TylerLieberman · 07-31-2013, 09:51 PM

None of it number wise is very attractive but visually, inside and out, one of the best hybrids I've seen. Especially at that price range.

Most of us aren't big fans of hybrids, but eventually, we aren't going to have much else of a choice. It's nice to start seeing more attractive options that aren't $60,000+.

It's a Prius that looks much better than a Prius. Win in my book.

hmong337 · 08-01-2013, 02:04 AM

in ten years, that thing is gonna be another big paper weight. i hate hybrids with a passion! for something in that class, a mazda3 hatchback would be my choice. especially with the reveal of the new mazda3 2014 models. damn sexy!

Nice body lines, but the engine and the type of people who buy it makes it uncool all day every day

Leonardo · 08-07-2013, 02:39 PM

Well my wife like them, so I looked at them. They book out at $40,000 with all the options. That is alot of money for a car that goes 0-60 in 9.7 secs. Also it is prius at heart. I do like Lexus, and I like the look of this car. But, I'd rather get a A3 TDI for the mpg.

If you looked up Uncool in the encyclopedia, there'd be a picture of this car there.

No, there'd be a picture of your specific 2013 Scion FR-S.

I'm not sure who pissed in your Wheaties this morning, but that was pretty uncalled for.
