Thats pretty much the deal that Consumer Reports gives ANY American car whenever the annual car review edition is released. If the car's American, it WILL be blasted with no reservation. If it's Japanese, it will be worshiped. If it's Japanese AND Hybrid, it will be canonized. American Hybrids get a pleasant one-word post-it added to the review. I trust CR none at all anymore.
