PLUGIN Prius

Has anyone seen the calcars plugin Prius. It gets 150 mpg and can run in all electric mode farther and faster.
Does anyone think that would be good ?

I haven't seen it, but it sounds interesting.

I do know when I got my Prius, several people thought we had to plug it in. Most everyone that asked about it did not like the idea of a car you have to plug in. So it think it would be a very difficult mainstream sell.

The best part is you don't HAVE to plug it in. It's only if you want and have time too. Then you get 150 mpg instead of 60 mpg. Nota bad choice to have.
Even if you forget or don't plug in you always get regular hybrid efficiency.

I'd love that option how about you.
