fatalfury writes "Researchers from the University of Vienna asked 20 males and 20 females to rank vehicles based on their appearance. The list of traits included arrogant, afraid, agreeable, disgusted, extroverted, sad, and others. Cars with more "meaner" traits (such as BMW) ranked higher, whereas cars with "nicer" traits (such as Toyota's Prius) ranked lower. With billions spent on developing new products in the automobile industry, this could spur a trend in meaner looking cars and perhaps explain why sales of the Prius and other green cars are slow to take off with average consumers."
