From the extra badging on the rear quarter panel, to the door frames, I just think it's sad.


Just what you need, a reminder everywhere you look that you're in a hybrid.


Everything else about the car is just fantastic though.
The only people going to buy this car are the kind that don't care about fuel economy. They're the ones who want other people to think they care. So the ridiculous badging makes sense. This will sell well in Los Angeles but I doubt anywhere else.

If this was really about hybrids then it would be a 520d or the new 528 4cl. Such a waste.
