I'm in the happy Prius owner camp, too. The styling (or lack thereof) is also driven by aerodynamic efficiency: http://motorburn.com/2014/01/12-of-the-most-ae

For people like me who consider cars a utility item, I couldn't really care much less about its outward appearance to other people.
- mikeash 10y agoHeh, we found the same link, except I looked it up in order to demonstrate that the Prius's looks aren't about efficiency. Most of those cars look great. The Prius stands out (along with the XL1) as a weirdmobile there, and it still only gets fifth place. I'm not going to bash it over its appearance, but I think that list shows that it doesn't have to look different to be efficient.
