More photos of the auto show in Honolulu:
These are cars seen at the Kia station:
Don’t know if this is a Kia car, but it looked intriguing.
Odd-looking car: The Soul.
Even with the seat pulled all the way back, David could not fit his legs under the steering wheel.
This model had a sun roof; see David’s hand sticking through. He said there was no head room.
This is the Toyota station:
Beautiful blue car! The Yaris.
This is a Prius, which is a hybrid. LizKauai commented that her 6’4” son-in-law fits very easily in his Prius with plenty of head room.
The solar roof in the Prius.
This is a Camry. David owns a 2010 model and fits into it with absolutely no problem.
So, which is the better car? Obviously, the Toyota is better than the Kia!

Head room is very important, a must. It’s important not to feel claustrophobic in a car. I once had a car with a sun roof, a ’93 BMW, and I grew surprisingly fond of that sun roof, considering I didn’t actually order it in the first place. However, I felt Hawaii was too hot for a sun roof, so I turned it into a “moon roof.” It was very pleasant to open up the car’s roof after the sun had gone down.

My nephew owned a car with a sun/moon roof. It leaked during heavy rain, so he got rid of it.

I don’t know which car is better, but I do love our Prius! (especially with the rising gas prices these days)

gigi- Did they show the smaller Prius model that is supposed to come out later this year?

I think this is the only Prius that was on display. I got the impression that the solar roof was a new feature.
