Well, I noted a couple of interesting things...

- The Prius won by... 0.6 % Is that really a 'win' ? ::shaking head bemusedly::

- The 'second opinions' section with the two writers seems to favor the Honda over the Toyota

- The 'Editors Evaluations' section seems to have the HCH winning more categories overall ? (I know someone here will count / add up the points, but don't worry, because it all gets blown away with 'Final Rankings & Scoring Evaluation', which seems to be purely subjective).

Now...for the one that's really telling to me...
In the 'Final Rankings' section, the 'Recommended Rating' gleans 100% for the HCH, and 50% for the Prius. This supposedly is supposed to represent what the editors think "would be the best choice for the average consumer shopping in this segment" If they think that the HCH is the better choice by half, how does it lose to the Prius overall ?
