    (sigh) . . . . dreaded as much. During the 2009 Detroit auto show - many PC members had high hopes that the Pri would go plug-in, even back then ...but it was a disappointment when we saw it was just a newer rev, in stead. oh well ... maybe next year.
    or the next.

    China gets the tech. We get the cars. Designed in Japan, built in China, purchased in the US.

    BYD has the "newton-meters" to be a good partner. BYD is the innovator in the East. Already far ahead in solar farming with battery backup solutions.
