If you bought a Prius (or leased one) you likely bought it for fuel economy – or maybe because it was affordable. Toyota bumps the power by giving the hybrid a larger gas engine – it’s now 2.0-liters Toyota invited Chicago-area media to the city’s far western suburbs to drive the Prius, along with the Crown, last week.

Creating far-reaching technology policy first and then figuring out the myriad of engineering details needed to implement it second, is always going to be a high-risk strategy that needs an appropriate level of wariness. If California cannot afford it, can the other 17 states that have pledged to follow California’s EV lead afford it, either?

Why pay $40K for a GM volt… which will look nothing more than a Malibu anyway and only get 40 miles before the gasoline engine kicks in. The fuel engine on the Volt is used to run the generator to recharge the battery when a trip exceeds 40 miles, and it’s rage on a full tank is around 400 miles. Where is affordable.
