I disagree, there's a lot of aeromodding potential on a Prius. Toyota just barely scratched the surface in potential aeromods to the Prius. They couldn't do anything that could possibly turn off a potential customer, so they were very conservative in their aeromodding.. And the nice thing about the Prius is that its differential-like CVT system should be able to infinitely adjust its gear ratios to reflect the reduced aero load and so take full benefit of the aeromods, unlike fixed gear transmissions where we are all scrambling to find taller gears to install in them.
