Looks sharp.

It blows me away every time I see where a major manufacturer has left some low hanging easy fruit that could improve their fuel economy numbers. Open wheel wells on the Prius, too-large grille openings, this gaping chasm in the Volt, etc.

I keep wondering if that's an opportunity they're holding in reserve, a chance to improve the next model with something that doesn't take a lot of ingenuity to make it work.
