Rear wheel flares cleaned up
Prius C could be an eco-fave because of its smaller & lighter two-box design. But there is an opportunity. Using an eco-modder's eye, it needs to be modified. The large curved rear wheel flares seem to be the incorrect terminus for a clean rear Kamm-flow. The same design team (Toyota ED2) for the Prius C, also designed the Toyota iQ, has added 'afterthought' aero fillers in front and behind the iQ's wheel wells.
Instead of their modest fix, I propose a dramatic retro rear wheelcover/tailfin combo to clean up those rear corners.
Yes, tailfins come back!! (w/ de riguer partial Kamm-wing & fun color-coordinated translucent front wheel covers)
