Toyota is announcing today that they now expect to be able to release a plug-in Prius using lithium-ion batteries by the end of this year, neatly one-upping Chevy's Volt in the process.

Replying to: larsb (Jan 12, 2009 6:48 am) It all makes the Volt seem kind of irrelevant, considering that neither of these new Priuses is expected to be priced anywhere near the Volt's estimated $40K starting price. But I assume that the Volt will still beat even the plug-in Prius's electric-only driving range. It had better if Chevy's hopes for it are to pan out. |

| ...isn't really that impressive when you realize VW put out a 50 MPG diesel Rabbit back in 1980. | |
