Default Looking for European Plug-In modification

Dear Sir!
My name is Theodore.I am an electronic engineer, I live in Athens - Greece and I have just bought the Advance Model of the Toyota Prius!
I am interested in the PHEV Plug-In modification of my Prius. I have already sent an email to the Hymotion. They answered me, but they have not sent any plug in modification to Europe until now! In the future they may be send!
I found through google a company in England. I sent them an email but I have not received any reply until today!
What can I do now?

Thank you!

Dear Sir!
Thank you for your reply.
The problem with your idea is that a lot of weight will be added and a lot of free space will be used. The perfect is the Hymotion plug in but.......I live in Europe.
Do you know any other type of batteries that will be used and they will be more powerful? I mean the ratio amp/mass of these will be high....that means a lot of amperes in a small mass.

Thank you again!

Nimh packs are not that heavy compared to the calcars first plugin bases on lead acid packs

of course Lion like battery´s will be the best for wieght

but what distance are you aming for
