Seems many Priuii are driven like they're stolen. Perhaps the car is too quiet and it's not giving the full illusion of speed and power? The clever engineers could have a big V8 soundtrack play through the stereo that matches engine rpms fool the fools that don't think they're moving cuz they don't hear any cacophony.
