Considering the Prius C has roughly the same width of this generation of the L300, which by the way had some clearly underpowered engine options back in the day, it doesn't seem to be a bad idea at all. On a sidenote, since the stock RWD layout has some clearance issues which prevent the floor to sit lower, it wouldn't be so hard to find space for a larger-capacity battery pack and to place it closer to the center of the wheelbase in order to better balance the weight bias.
