The Dimunitive All-Electric Toyota iQ Brings Green Power to Compact Driving
Although it's just a new twist on an already popular model, the new all-electric Toyota iQ could easily outshine its roots when it hits retailers in 2012.
Even though it has only three seats, the prototype is expected to make its big debut next month at the Geneva Auto show. According to Toyota, the all-electric Toyota iQ will feature a Hybrid Synergy Drive system and a flat lithium-ion battery pack with a range of 65 miles per charge. Not too shabby!
