Is anyone surprised they don't publicize that information? LOL

You can be sure Toyota did a wind tunner test, but if the Cd is 0.17 or something, they aren't going to brag about it!

Not busting on it. I own one!
I just find it hilarious that there is even a section called "Drag Coefficient - xB"

You wouldn't find a "Drag Coefficient - Eurovan" section on a VW site. LOL

I to am curious about the drag. Does it have more than a full sized auto? How does its drag fit into the scheme of all automobiles. Also, how does it do on the skid-pad test. Ranking with all other cars. These are normal things that are tested, and reported on in car magazines. I am sure someone has done the test. Also, just courious about a "crash test" and its overall ranking? Just information to be stored, not that we were worried about drag when we purchased the car, just information collected.

i think consumer reports comes out this month, and it may have some of that info... if not, maybe car and driver would have done it at some point, and if anyone has an online subscription and can tell us those figures, that'd be awesome!
