Toyota should get rid of those gated shifters. I automatically turn my nose up at any vehicle with those.

Shuttle Hybrid costs about $5k less than the Toyota Prius V in Japan Sounds good. Unfortunately the C Max is way below my expectations for real-world MPG, so nice to have more options in that class.
Would also like to see a Mazda5 SkyActiv (gas or diesel).

How 'bout a manual? Better yet, a V6 manual? Works for the Lotus Evora.

In a nice granite metallic color, very sharp.I gotta say, the Audi style LED lights look better on a squared off car like this one than they do even on Audis.

Unfortunately the C Max is way below my expectations for real-world MPG My wife noticed a bunch of reports like that doing a net search on the C-Max last night. She was especially bummed that some reviewer couldn't get better mileage even using hypermiling techniques.
So the bank account will be solvent for a while longer - thank you Ford.

Honda seemed to address their primary gripes.

Hyunkia is so desperate to be German, they haven't just hired a German designer, they are now designing cars by osmosis

Sorento is a Kia, actually. Hyundai has the Santa Fe (and SF Sport). Kia just updated the powertrains, but it only got a face lift. Now the DI 4 banger is standard and the 3.3l DI V6 is optional.
The Benz has a lot more mass but I bet both protected their passengers rather well.
As for styling, Sorento reminds me of an MDX without any of the extraneous "styling". Not sure but I think it was designed before Schreyer's influence came in to play, yet it's aged well.
Can't really compare vehicles with such different pricing but Sorento does more than 3x the sales volume of the ML, and that was before the powertrain upgrades.
