"the Volta's 408-hp Hybrid Synergy DriveŽ (a 3.3-liter V6 with an electric motor for each axle) not only delivers 435 miles on a 13.7-gallon tank, but 0-60 acceleration in a mere four seconds."



I think it's safe to use hybrid and sportcar in the same sentence for this car.

It's a nice car.

Lmao, that's why its called a concept car. I could design a car and explain how its gonna get 250 miles per gallon of gas and run the quatermile in 7.4 secs. I doubt Toyota will put this into production and if it does don;t expect it to meet those expectations its setting.

Yeah, that's true. But usually concept cars are more for introducing new technology than just showing off new cars. A concept program like this that revolves around a "revolutionary" engine scheme means that Toyota is working on making a high performance hybrid a reality. Toyota currently has 3-4 concept cars using this gas-electric hybrid setup, one of those cars being a true supercar.

They are obviously working on something over there. You can bet they are going some place with this.
