Has anyone read up on the Toyota Volta?
Hybrid sports car, due out in Germany in December 04, and the US 3 months later. (Pretty impressive imo)
I think the Volta, much like the new Accord Hybrid shows a suddena nd broad shift in what hybrid technology will be aimed at. "More power, less gas" seems to be a sudden universal shift by Ford, Honda, and Toyota reguarding hybrids. (While GM still clings to getting Fuel Cell tech viable)
So Im wondering, will this shift effect the Prius and the Insight as well?
Or will the companies keep at least one hyper-mileage vehicle around?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts,
