If you are taking pics of the Prius... I'm interested in the regenerative braking system. Likely the most "efficient" result of engineering in the system. Are the electric motors/generators at each hub or where??
I like to point out to Prius drivers that between the batteries and relative disposability of their cars compared to my 37 year old "gas hog, emissions spewing" Targa - I'm still ahead as far as ecologic footprint.
