They may be suffering from the recession but Toyota are showing no sign of slowing down on the R&D front. They have just presented their new Lexus HS250h hybrid car at the Detroit Auto Show and it just looks gorgeous. This looks to me like a fabulous car that is fuel-efficient without sacrificing what a great car is all about: it looks good, it's got all the performance and features you'd want to drive comfortably and safely to work or whatever it is you're doing everyday. And all GM have to respond to that is this little piece of crap they call 'Volt'. The whole range-extended EV concept is total nonsense, and clearly is only there to mitigate the shortcomings of pure EV's. Mr Volta must be spinning in his grave...
