re: Toyota unveils the 57mpg 2023 Prius….it actually looks much cooler than the old one

Why aren't there more Hybrids instead of the push towards All-Electric?

Politics.

I'm not sure why, but I need a grill on a vehicle in order to really like it. Cars look unnatural without them.

I had a 95 Sentra that got almost 40 miles a gallon on the Hwy. My wife had a 93 Saturn that got 34 ish. I don’t understand how cars got less fuel efficient and starting requiring hybrids to get serious mpg.

They didn't get less fuel efficient, the '22 Sentra gets about 18% more combined mpg than the '95 model. It also has about 30% more power and torque, weighs about 30% more, has about 30% more cargo space, and is safer. That's pretty good progress.

Wut? Priuses have had that shape for well over a decade.

Those vehicles were significantly smaller and lighter relative to their new counterparts.

Was that picture supposed to prove me wrong?

Don’t care. Government is telling us all electric or bust.

I'm not sure what you think you're proving here If you can't see the evolution of the design, that's a you problem. They didn't copy shite from Tesla. That's a comical claim.
