Toyota Prius Coupe coming in 2014 - report

 Toyota Prius Coupe coming in 2014 - report
2010 Toyota Prius

Based on the Lexus GS?

Toyota has already announced plans to expand the Prius lineup with the Prius c and Prius v, but a new report is indicating the company will also build a Prius Coupe in 2014.

Auto Express says the model will be based on the next-generation Lexus GS. This seems like an odd choice considering the FT-86 would be a prime candidate for a hybrid powertrain, but this could imply the car will be a larger coupe that may act as a halo model. Regardless, the vehicle is slated to feature plug-in hybrid technology, a lithium-ion battery and a manual transmission.

OH PLEASE...WHAT A HORRIBLE IDEA FOR A HORRIBLE MOTOR CAR...ANYONE THINKS THAT THE PRODUCTION, USE, AND OWNERSHIP OF THEIR POS IS BEING AN ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSIBLE CITIZEN NEEDS THEIR HEAD READ...THESE ARE THE DIRTIEST AND ENERGY HUNGRY CAR TO MANUFACTURE AND THE END USER COSTS is ANOTHER ENVIRONMENTAL BLIGHT..LIKE THE BATTERY.

Good idea. Having less doors will make it more exciting... oh wait, no it won't. It just makes a boring car less practical.
