Toyota
will develop plug-in hybrid vehicles as soon as the
technology is ready
Toyota is hearing the
voice of Americans when it comes to plug-in
hybrid vehicles, Jim Press, President of Toyota North
America told the Inside
Line. However, just as GM has indicated, plug-in
technology just isn't quite ready for prime time. "We
are hearing the voice of the customer, and we want
[plug-ins] as much as anyone else," Press said.
"It is not a lack of desire; it is a lack of science.
We don't want to come out with a technology prematurely
that might not succeed." So, if you are interested in
plug-in hybrid technology, buy one of today's hybrids -
its the best way to invest in tomorrow's hybrid
technology.
