Toyota leases 150 plug-in vehicles in Europe and Obama plugs his Ford hybrid
Toyota plans to lease 150 plug-in electric hybrid vehicles to fleet customers in Europe this year, and a similar program in North America could follow. The cars can be driven for short distances on just electric power before a Prius-like full gasoline/electric hybrid system takes over, Toyota says.

In our Pacific Northwest, blessed
with abundant renewable cheap nonpolluting Hydro-electric power,
the plug-in Hybrid makes good
sense.
The Prius has been around
for many years-What is keeping
Toyota from offering a charger and
adapter installation kit for a
retrofit to any Prius owner ?
