The 2010 Prius Looks Like What?

by Benjamin Jones on October 18, 2008

Like this, in fact. At first, I was a bit hesitant to post these pictures because they came from a “leak” and might not have been authentic. Suprisingly, Toyota fessed up that these were the real pictures. Now the blogosphere is abuzz with rumors that perhaps the leak was intentional to hype up the new car, but I won’t bore you with that.

The new Prius is supposed to be a little sportier, but still continue the car’s legacy as a treehugging icon, while hopefully fending off the new Honda Insight. No one can say if all that will happen right now, but check out the rest of the teaser shots and let us know in the comments what you think about the redesign. One thing I notice is the lack of rear wheel covers, but oh well!

I wonder if the side profile, especially near the bottom, makes rear wheel covers superfluous. Toyota, among others, is doing some crazy things w/ aero drag these days, w/ their SUVs/pickups clocking in w/ drag coefficients in the .35-.37 range.
