The Toyota Prius Has How Many Mascots?!
It’s common knowledge by now that Japan, and Asia as a whole, love their mascots. So it should come as no surprise that Toyota’s most recent advertising campaign consists of a bunch of cute girl mascots to help advertise the Toyota Prius. What may be surprising, however, is that there is a total of 40 mascots, each one represent a part of the car!

We won’t go over all 40 of them here (you can do that at Toyota’s official website), but here’s a selection of some of the best and most ridiculous ones—like girl #01, the engine’s mascot, whose caption reads “Come on, run with us.”
