Can the Prius really be 'sporty'?

You might have heard that in 2007, the Toyota Prius will come in a new Touring Edition, that is more 'sporty' than the traditional Prius. According to Motortrend the new Prius will offer "standard driver and front passenger seat-mounted side airbags and front and rear side curtain airbags" along with "European-tuned suspension and 16-inch alloy wheels".
