Is Toyota hybrid complacent?

All about the Sienna today

Well, the new Sienna minivan will offer a fuel efficient 4-cylinder version next year. That’s good news, but how about some new hybrid hype?

Rumors of new Prius-based hybrids, for instance, have been floating around for years. Why not step it up? This the LA Auto Show, the green showcase, for crying out loud.

Early next year Toyota will put 500 plug in Prius hybrids on the road, months before GM begins production. That’s not news?

Is Toyota afraid? Embarrassed? Why so hybrid complacent?
