Toyota Hybrid Minicar Concept Intro at Detroit Auto Show

Green cars were the big news at the Frankfurt Auto Show in September and the Los Angeles Auto Show in December 2009, and the expectation is that hybrid cars, plug-in electric cars and hydrogen fuel cell cars will be making headlines at the important Detroit Auto Show in January 2010.

The rumor is that Toyota will introduce a hybrid mini-car.  Why else would they release teaser photographs — a fender here, a hood there.

According to CNET, this will be a new Toyota model, not a hybrid version of one already on sale.

Toyota’s upscale sister Lexus introduced the LF-Ch hybrid hatchback concept car in Frankfurt.

And Toyota announced recently that the plug-in version of the best-selling Prius hybrid is going into production in 2010.
