VIDEO: Plug-in Prius tests in London

Posted Sep 11th 2008 at 1:19PM by Sebastian Blanco



The plug-in Prius tests that started yesterday in London were not without a bit of hoopla, and our friend Adam V. from Smartplanet was on hand to video a bit of the introduction. We, sadly, don't get to see the PHEV on the road - but I guess we've all seen Priuses driving by now and you can't really tell the PHEV version from the outside except for the stickers anyway - but Adam does get a few minutes of Q&A with Toyota's Colin Hensley and EDF Energy's Peter Hofman. Hofman says that even with today's coal-fired dirty electricity, driving a plug-in hybrid can reduce your CO2 emissions by 40 percent compared to driving a standard, gas-powered vehicle. Hensley talks a little bit about the upcoming revamp of the test PHEV Prius that will feature li-ion batteries for increased power and range. Watch the video at Smartplanet. Thanks to Adam for the tip.

See what you missed from the Eden Project's Sexy Green Car Show 2008

As fun as it would be, we can't be at every green car show on the planet. One of the current events we're sad to be missing is the Eden Project's Sexy Green Car Show in the UK. Thankfully, there are plenty of photos and videos streaming our way to make us feel like we're part of the action.

Over on Smart Planet, Adam Vaughan has posted a series of photos and a video report from the show. He snapped pics of the Morgan LifeCar (above, more available here) and the Lotus Exige 270E Tri-Fuel, among others. His three-minute video covers the Axon, Saab Biohybrid, Lotus Tri-Fuel and Ford Econetic. If Smart Planet's coverage isn't enough for you, check out this BBC video or, if you're lucky enough to be near Cornwall before the month is up, go visit the Sexy Green Car Show for yourself.
