It is stylish car having great features.The new Toyota Prius “Alpha” is a stretched-out version of the older Prius, boasting increased passenger capacity and a new, lighter and more efficient, lithium-ion battery.how awesome it is?I dunno, i would say a car of this size with 7 seats would be in the higher bracket of uncomfortable.. per Neil, i doubt they have the backwards seat configuration.. haven’t seen that in a USDM spec car for a long time. I’m thinking it’s a safety thing.P.S. I was impressed by how low the idle fuel-consumption was for the Grand Marquis, for a non-hybrid.
