FIRST DRIVE: Toyota Prius C

A hybrid you could actually like? Sounds impossible, but Toyota may well have managed it with its new compact hybrid, the Prius C; a new entry in the Prius family and Toyota’s first attempt to expand the Prius name into a family rather than a single model.

Proof that Kimi Raikkonen does actually talk. Not much though… “Kimi, are you excited by the new Formula One season?” “Not really…” Kimi Speaks! Nope, not sure why he doesn’t answer the last question. Maybe he fell asleep… Doesn’t beat his best interview ever though:

FIRST DRIVE: Toyota Camry

Just a Camry? That’s never actually been a bad thing… We go to the launch of the new Toyota Camry to see what exactly IS new. What is it? An all new Camry, baby! Well… kind of. Actually, make that “mostly”… While the new 7th generation Camry may sit on the previous car’s platform, it […]
