Following up on the Prius Prime posting!

The busses fuel cell generator functions to produce electric energy that can be used outside the bus during power outages.
The pace of innovation at Toyota can not always evident in their commercial vehicle offerings. In the way that Honda is developing the Asimo tangentially to its vehicles, Toyota engages in research that will not translate into vehicle offering for several more model design refresh generations that click off in a 4-7 design cadence.
Each new generation of Prius 10% more efficient than the model that came before it! Prius is Latin for "coming before", eluding to the fact that Toyota was first to market with a strong hybrid platform made by the millions :) Today more than 9 million hybrids have been shipped into the world by Toyota. Moving people forward!
