Its on www.speednation.com

Umm, i agree. All Hybrids are so ugly. I'd like them if there was a coollooking hybrid like the Lexus RX400h

The Civic Hybrid looks like any other Civics with a little different styling cues. The Accord Hybrid looks like any other Accord and it can perform just like or sometimes better than its gasoline counterparts. The Insight, well, let's just say I could barely fit in that. The Prius seemed like the coolest hybrid there (the first gen anyways).

There are others coming out and they will look like any other car so the ugly factor is all but gone. Just give it time.

I'd would love to see some hybrids come into 1:18 scale...

have to agree i mean were are the windscreen wipers, and look at the size of the wingmirrors!!!!! nice idea for a concept car that some ideas could be taken from but not anything else, in my opion anyways lol

@la lol windscreen. over here it's called windshield. and i bet the mirrors are cameras that are put onto a screen in the dash board.

i don't like the side vents and the exhaust.

@kustom ace are you a moderator because on the bottom you're not listed as a mdoerator but you said you'll post in the moderator coner or whatever so that's why i ask.
