They're going to. As for why they didn't in the first place, they didn't think enough people would be willing to pay that much more money for the extra batteries needed to make a PHEV practical. You have to realize that the auto makers are just making educated guesses. They don't have crystal balls that'll tell them how their customers are going to react to any new car, especially several years after it's introduced, when gas prices have more than doubled.
