    (I vaguely remember hearing about this before, so forgive if old news... quick search/scan didn't pull it up in forums.)

    May 30 article @ Autoexpress.co.uk

    "Our insiders have blown the cover on a turbocharged prototype which is being tested in Japan. Auto Express was the first magazine to reveal plans for a 100mpg-plus successor to the Prius in issue 904 - and now we can spill the beans on how it will be done..."

    Ever since making the decision to not get a Prius or Camry Hybrid and to wait for the next Gen prius instead, I'm insatiable when it comes to any tidbits on the next version. :D

    Crossing finger for electric only for short trips in town and for plug-in, but not holding my breath for both to be included. Most of my use will be short 3-5 mile trips @ 40mph or slower.

    Doh, I swear I searched for autoexpress, turbo, and turbo prius... guess I just missed it. Either way, good news in the article that will hopefully pan out.
