Bleh to AWD. I really hope its an option. I live in Wisconsin, learned to drive in upper Michigan, and every FWD car I've ever owned is FINE in winter. Snow tires are nice, but not even absolutely necessary. AWD is largely a sales gimmick IMO, and probably a smart move on Toyota's part because so many people fall for it. I just don't want to have to pay for it.
Downsizing is good, saves money and makes it more affordable.
It is odd that they don't offer a bit more range for the PHEV version. Something to compete with the Volt would probably sell a lot better. That being said, 15.5 miles is darn near perfect for my commute.
