    The Prius v really needs a rear skirt. The bottom of the bumper rises quite quickly.

    Looks like the proper (aerodynamic) angle to me.

    +1. From some angles, it also looks outdated, like a minivan from 10 years ago. Being a "Prius" this is obviously very bad, if you see it too like me.

    Fashion is a method of convincing people to buy more things of lower quality. Don't fall for this trap.
