    a plug in camry hybrid.. sounds impressive... as the speed of that car increases a fair amount as the battery SOC goes up. (much like the lexus hybrids)

    i looked and didn't see episode 17 up on itunes yet.. waiting....

    That shouldn't be hard to understand. After all, you'd be surprised at how many Lexus's are built on the Camry platform ... even our hybrid RX SUV uses the Camry platform. It's an extremely popular design.
