Top Gear Drives a Toyota Prius, Isn't Impressed

Due to my daily submersion into all things eco-friendly, you can probably guess that the very hem of my soul has become frayed by the hollow ideology and self-righteous bigotry I often endure. What I love most about the Toyota Prius is that it is meant to be an embodiment of the entire green movement, allowing you to attack it with maximum effect. Jeremy Clarkson of Top Gear performs flawlessly.

Not only does the Prius effectively have 2 motors, but the world-wide production process is far more damaging than a traditional petrol car. Add this to the fact that the actual MPG isn't better than many other alternatives in the UK, and you'll come to understand that the Prius, like the green movement, is more marketing than substance.
