A plug-in Lexus hybrid?

Super fast, super efficient, even rechargeable Lexus hybrids?

Lexus is considering a number of new hybrid vehicles to reach outside its core market into "enthusiast groups", according to the DetroitNews.

One version might be a high performance hybrid, another option might offer extreme fuel economy and ultra low emissions. Even more interesting is the possibility of a rechargeable Lexus hybrid.

Such a plug-in Lexus hybrid is possible, according to General Manager Jim Farley, although a "super efficient" version of today's Hybrid Synergy Drive is more probable - at least in the short term.

If anyone has any additional information about retrofitting the Lexus to make it an plug-in, I'd love to get an email on the subject.
