I wouldn't say that the HCH is necessarily better especially when you look at MPG/FE. Personally I think the HCH looks better but there are certain things that the Prius has that I wish the HCH had, such as bluetooth for example.
I think the main reason why people are going towards the HCH is because they are looking for affordability and FE. Yes the HCH isn't as high as the prius in MPG/FE its more than good enough to make a difference for most people's wallets when it comes time to fill up at the local gas station.
