Yep, its a Toyota Matrix with different body panels. Everything else (interior, engine) is the same.

Being an owner I'm of course biased, but IMO its an amazing car. You can fit SO much inside with the fold flat rear seats, and with the fold flat front passenger seat if you need to put in something REALLY long.

My wife is a gardener and she hauls around a lot of equipment for watering and plant care (she does interior gardening). She always has some large plant stuffed into the back of the car. As you can see from the mileage log (click in my sig) it pretty much never dips below 30mpg. She really doesn't hypermile at all either and I rarely drive it. So far, its been an amazing car.
