tcdrake, if you mean the '05 Highlander hybrid, this page indicates it'll be in the first few months of 2005.

I was told January delivery with a pre-order made in mid March. I suppose that will start moving out now, as the pre order lists get longer.

Estima by lucas

What I would REALLY like to have is a 2005 Estima Van. I've been on the waiting list for a 2004 Prius since October but am about to give up and sign-up for the Ford Escape Hybrid.
 
I MAY buy a highlander if they are available first but I'm going to do a real careful comparison.
 
If the Estima was available, I doubt that I would ever drive anything else unless they invent a car that uses water for fuel.

Hybrid drive by lucas

I don't understand why there isn't a drive motor on each wheel.
 
You could mount a fixed stator on each axle. Put high energy magnets on each wheel and you would have all four wheels driving. I'm sure Toyota could work out the control problem.
 
You saw it here first!

Preorder list by backy

The closest Toyota dealer to me, which is fifth largest in the Chicago region by sales volume (or so they claim), has 10 people on their HL hybrid preorder list already--and that was as of last Saturday. But they have over 100 Prius buyers on the list, so it's possible (at about 10 Priuses per month) the HL buyers will get theirs before some of the Prius buyers do.

Is that Walser? I bought at Burnsville, and was told I'd get the HL before a Prius due to the long Prius wait list.

generation interesting as they are planning (so I hear) to use electric motors at each wheel which will give the car well over 300HP from the 3.2L V6 that is currently in the car. Acceleration will be phenomenal....Great idea.
