almost as funny as the comedy 'blue Prius' video posted here...

"zero to 60" mentality...that I just don't understand

"Chervon still owns the rights to NiMh?"

why would they want to get rid of a very nice cash cow?

I used to go to the Netherlands 5 or 6 times a year for business, have friends in Amsterdam and Delft....I so miss those trips....but the economy lately isn't co-operating

So lets see, this guy spent the marjority of the time trashing the Prius, but was constantly back-peddling off of his own critisisms, and in the end had to conclude that the Prius is a pretty "ok" car? WTF?

Me thinks that this kid bleached more than his hair......

Actually, several of the patents for NiMH batteries are held by Cobasys, which is a partially owned (50%) subsidiary of Chevron. Panasonic EV and Toyota have to license the use of NiMH from Cobasys. Part of the license agreement limits the size of the batteries available for automotive use (e.g. they cannot produce replacement batteries for the RavEV due to the restrictions)
