Looks plugged in to me. I'm guessing it wasn't a PHEV version though...

Those vertical "foils"/teardrops on the rear undertray are kind of interesting. Toyota's tribute to the "Jaray body"?



Ben - it's hard to tell from the pics, but do you remember if the rear tray angles upwards? Or straight back?

Slightly upwards. A degree or two, I think.

Hi Ben,

Where was this car? At a dealer, or at an auto show?
