The Road Beat: 2023 Toyota Prius Prime review ~ Hot yet expensive Prius

You know something is not right in the world when the Toyota Prius is now considered, and quite collectively at that, one of the best cars in the world. No longer is this pioneering hybrid an ugly can of slow molasses, but instead an attractive and sleek family car with more than adequate performance.

The Road Beat: 2023 Hyundai Tucson PHEV Limited Review

A plug-in hybrid crossover that meets in the middle. You'll buy or skip on a Tucson based primarily on its looks.

If you happen to hate the style, then you probably won't have made it to even reading a review in the first place, so because you're here, I can assume you are in fact interested in this electrified crossover and therefore a fan of the style. I like it. Some of my friends did. Some didn't.
