Toyota: Prius plug-in gets 65 mpg - Automotive News

Toyota: Prius plug-in gets 65 mpg - Automotive News: "U.S. sales of a Toyota plug-in hybrid will begin sometime after 2010.

'It would make sense that we would do it with a Prius, but we haven't announced anything as to which vehicles' will offer plug-in technology, said John Hanson, a Toyota spokesman. But any hybrid model is a possible candidate, he said.

Reinert said fuel economy for plug-in hybrids depends on the battery pack's capacity and how the car is driven. Both factors determine how many miles can be driven in electric mode."
