What was old, is new again!
BREAKING: Tesla and Toyota to develop RAV4 EV, hope to launch in 2012 — Autoblog Green
This is completely excellent news!
I hope they do a little aero-modding and close up most/all of the front grill (since there is virtually no heat, or certainly no where near as much heat!), and eventually, it would be great to have a smooth floor pan on the EV version; since there is no need for an exhaust tunnel, etc.
And I hope they keep the "easy coasting" set up of the original RAV4 EV! I think that having regen on the accelerator is for the birds -- why do you think it is called the accelerator pedal, and the other one is the brake pedal? ;-)
