Certified Toyota Hybrids

Why can’t we get a 50 MPG car? The technology is there yet we cannot seem to break this barrier in the U.S. Over in Europe there are cars such as the Volkswagon Polo and Ford Fiesta that get upwards of 65 MPG. It seems that Electric cars lack in the range department and hybrid technology is fairly new. Toyota with their Plug-in Prius will definitely push the bar of fuel economy once more.
The car with the best fuel economy over here is none other than the Prius which is rated at 46 MPG by the Government. Toyota who is at the cutting edge of battery technology and 2 mode hybrid power plants will soon have a Plug-in version of the Prius which is expected to get well above 50 MPG. This PHEV vehicle will take an overnight charge to get the battery pack nice and full of juice. With a full charge the Plug-in Prius will be able to use its electric engine more often there by increasing the fuel economy. I can see a 100 MPG car on the horizon.
