I dont think this has been posted yet, but CNET has coverage of the Frankfurt Auto Show, in which among many others, there is some footage of the upcoming Plug In Prius. For those who are interested in the latest car tech, VW came up with a car that according to CNET "makes the Prius look like a pig," while BMW combined turbodiesel and hybrid technology (3 electric motors, mind you) in a single car.

I LOLed at the comment regarding VW L1 Concept, "Finally, a car that makes the Prius look like a pig!"
Here's a great write up from a member of Teslamotorsclub.com who went to the Frankfurt IAA. He emphasized EVs, but great photos, well written and worth the read. Tesla Motors Club Forum - View Single Post - Frankfurt IAA Show 2009 Tesla Model S
Even if it goes into production....isnt it a bit too weird having your passenger ride behind you rather than next to you? It almost feels like a jet's cockpit. lol
