Toyota Hybrid Trim Down (in more ways than one)

Posted Image

The Japanese automaker said its new target would trim the cost premium for hybrids to about $1,900. The new hybrid technology, which will be used in the next-generation Prius sedan, will be about half the size and weight of the current system.

Damnit. That means GM's "poor man's hybrids" won't be any cheaper at all.

Yeah, but they'll probably look better.

Yeah, but since they are Toyota buyers, it's already a given that they don't care about styling.

50% smaller and lighter and it will still be 2x as complicated, big, and heavy as Honda's IMA...
