"Where is the US car industry on hybrids" Behind Japan of course. There are many ways to ween off middle east oil. The government will always avoid any that require hort term pain to the voter.

JF, Where is the US car industry on hybrids... certainly not leading... The price of gas in Japan is 3X that of America, due to the fact that Japan has to import 100% of its oil. It's no wonder Japan is leading the industry in hybrids. Tenchusatsu

Looks good, but only one? Actually, not so good. It has a Toyota engine.......quantities are very limited. Detroit is once again a laggard. GM's stock has been under attack for months now. They continue to be outpaced by the automotive giants of the world. Here we are.........one of the largest auto markets and our auto companies are also rans. Toyota is expected to pass GM as the largest auto company before the decade is out. They passed Ford last year. ted
