Unfortunately the Prius is ridiculously priced (about $10,000 over what it is worth) and just because it is a hybrid vehicle. Think about if some pickup truck rear-ends you in the Prius. All the batteries have nowhere to go because they aren't collapsible so they can only go forward ultimately killing the passengers and possibly the driver. This concept electric would be even worse....No thank you!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jay C.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 2:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toyota to unveil its all-electric concept, not exactly forthcoming with details]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</guid><description><![CDATA[The prius looks ugly, the only reason people buy them is to look like they are saving the planet. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 3:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toyota to unveil its all-electric concept, not exactly forthcoming with details]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</guid><description><![CDATA[What's the towing capacity of this thing?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mr. Pips]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 12:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toyota to unveil its all-electric concept, not exactly forthcoming with details]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</guid><description><![CDATA[It would be a major engineering achievement if they can pull this off, it's not easy to make a car that's smaller than a Prius.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Johan S]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 12:54PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toyota to unveil its all-electric concept, not exactly forthcoming with details]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</guid><description><![CDATA[The prius is actually quite big, I suppose it fits between the golf/focus and the larger saloons passsat/vectra. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 3:54PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toyota to unveil its all-electric concept, not exactly forthcoming with details]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</guid><description><![CDATA[Come on ... watch Who Killed the Electric Car, then start talking about 'robust all-electric motors'.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[J]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 1:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toyota to unveil its all-electric concept, not exactly forthcoming with details]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</guid><description><![CDATA[Its called the Toyota iQ.

Learn english - find out what an article is, and use it. Use a spell checker - consider using a grammar checker. These things alone will increase you're readability and stature among bloggers and commenters. Use punctuation!

Our days of tunnel vision need to cease. Our nation better wake up and smell the coffee. With all our bail outs along with the 168 billion economic stimulus package, that btw did nothing for our economy it is hard to understand why our government can't see the need to bail us out of our dependence on foreign oil. The high cost of fuel this past year seriously damaged our economy and society. Meanwhile, while we are busy doing the Happy Dance around the lower prices at the pumps, OPEC is planning to cut production to drive prices back up to between 75-100. per barrel. Why don't we invest in America's Energy Independence. It would cost the equivalent of 60 cents per gallon to charge and drive. The electricity used to charge the car could conceivably be generated by solar or wind.If all gasoline cars, trucks, and suv’s instead had plug-in electric drivetrains, the amount of electricity needed to replace gasoline is about equal to the estimated wind energy potential of the state of North Dakota.<br>Why not invest some of these millions in getting some of these projects set up? Create clean cheap energy, badly needed new green collar jobs and reduce our dependence on foreign oil. What more of a win-win situation could there be? Now there is talk of another stimulus pkg. Don't get me wrong, if you hand me a check I will take it. I am broke from this past year myself. I just think we are going about this all wrong. I just read a fascinating book by Jeff Wilson called The Manhattan Project of 2009 Energy Independence NOW. We need to look at the "big picture" This book Is the big picture. <a href="http://www.themanhattanprojectof2009.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.themanhattanprojectof2009.com</a><br>Wilson also has a fascinating article on the Better Place Web Page called How Much Electricity Does It Take To Replace Gasoline. You can read it @ <a href="http://planet.betterplace.com/profiles/blogs/how-much-electricity-does-it" rel="nofollow">http://planet.betterplace.com/profiles/blogs/how-much-electricity-does-it</a><br> <br><br> <br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sherry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 4:33PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toyota to unveil its all-electric concept, not exactly forthcoming with details]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/toyota-to-unveil-its-all-electric-concept-not-exactly-forthcomi/</guid><description><![CDATA[why do all of your comments regard someting to do with the iPhone?<br><br>We get it you have an iPhone and you like it now shut up. seriously.<br><br>What is i were to go around and comment on how things compare to my Shadow?
