correction:
The VW Polo Blue Motion uses a Three cylinder Turbo Injected variable
timed diesel powerplant.
btw:
The VW Polo Blue Motion is priced at about 80% the cost of a 2010
Prius II. One of the reasons this diesel gas sipper and other like
it in europe are not sold in the USA is because they lack exhaust
emission devices that are required by the USA environmental
regulations.

your right, the Corolla is in a class above the Prius, it drives better, its
more comfortable at highway speed where it also gets better fuel economy and
you don't have to take a huge hit on the resale when you drive it off the
lot, and as has already been said, the $5,000 you save buys a shit load of
consumables.
Oh and did I mention that IMO it also looks better :-)

This insignificant experiment(prius )seem to cause discussion in
proportions vastly in excess of it's worthiness.
