The president of Toyota has said they'll offer the 3rd-generation Synergy drive in 2008. This is supposed to be lighter (ergo, better mileage) with better performance, and is supposed to cut the cost differential between their hybrids and conventional cars.
I'd like to wait to buy this, but it partially depends on how long the wait will be. Does anyone know if this means the 3rd-generation Synergy will appear:
- in the 2008 model year, hence first appearing at the end of 2007?
- in late calendar 2008, as the 2009 model year?
- some other time in calendar 2008?
Thanks!
