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!

Girl #39: Mascot for the door chime. Just to show that Toyota meant every part of the car.
For those wondering why there are 40 mascots instead of just one or two, the answer probably lies in the mysterious “game” section of Toyota’s site that isn’t accessible yet. Perhaps they’ll be creating some sort of mobile game that involves all of the characters? Will they go for an augmented-reality game so your favorite mascot can drive with you in the passenger seat?! We can only hope.
