I like the exterior....it look better then the Honda Fit. However, I can't stand the center dashboard. Why not just behind steering wheel like other normal car...

Veloster is very different car though... I am sure it will be a lot sportier than Prius c.

I thought Toyota claimed that the C will get better mileage than the regular Prius?

Here's hoping for At Least 55 mpg..
The regular Prius with 15" wheels gets 38km/L in the 10-15 test cycle, and 35.5km/L with 17" wheels. This Prius C gets 40km/L in the same cycle, so the Prius C is 5.3% more efficient than the 15"-wheeled Prius and 12.7% more efficient than the 17"-wheeled Prius. However, in the JC08 test cycle, the regular Prius with 15" wheels gets 32.6km/L, and 30.4km/L with 17" wheels. The Prius C gets 35.4km/L in JC08 so here it is 8.6% more efficient than the 15"-wheeled Prius and 16.4% more efficient than the 17"-wheeled Prius.
