just modern technology Gav. some clever engineers at toyota inventing all this stuff. it was great to drive.
Yeh... im always skeptical and i know for a fact that there is no such thing as a free lunch....... Combustion engine works because the energy in happened thousands of years ago when forests decayed etc and it all turned to oil and so it gives the illusion of great power out for not much put in.
Id like to know more about the battery as some of the energy in is from running the car, same as a basic lead/acid system we have.. but it only stores enough power to turn the engine over to get it started.
Theres another energy input from somewhere... and its this somewhere that needs to be verified before we can applaud a green car.
So far Green = Money. I cant see that equation changing
