Red face hybrids

Anyone know anything about the gas/electric hybrid from Toyota?

The car hybrid from Toyota is named PRIUS

I have seen in Spain some of them... it is like a bit psychedelic or futurist perhaps.

The first impression you get when you see it is a hard car, not very pretty but ideal for family and weekends.

If you want to go with your childs to the school, go to market to buy food, gave a walk with the family and the dog or pick up money from the Credit Card, this is your car.

I don't find it as comfortable as a Mercedes (I have several Mercedes) but for usually use this car seems to be acceptable.

It is not expensive, only 24.110 Euros (Euros and Dollars are the almost the same)

Here you have extensive information about this car:

Talking about the future. I'm looking forward to see how will supercars like the Lambo and Ferarri adapt these changes in the near future. It may take many years since, I'm sure, due to performance issues the supercar makers will be proabably the last ones to get into these technologies. Unless a new solarpowered power source could be discovered that could take a car up to 200 MPH :smoka:

At 9 MPG Lamborghini isn't trending in that direction.

Hmmm I for once would like to see a cold fusion powered Lamborgini. Looks like I'll have to wait for a few decades

I'm looking forward to the day that cell powered cars surpass petrol gas ones.
