Detroit, MI — Jan 14, 2008 — The Toyota Motor Corporation, which leads the world’s automakers in sales of hybrid-electric vehicles, announced Sunday night that it would build its first plug-in hybrid by 2010...

"By contrast, G.M. claims that the Volt will be able to hold a charge equal to 40 miles, after a six-hour charge...."
