This is a Toyota prius being recharged by a gas powered Honda portable generator at Washington square mall. I thought the prius had a pretty good EPA estimated range, but apparently the Honda is the more reliable choice.

:faint: Haha, this is pretty nuts. The car can re-charge itself obviously...so many why's running through my mind right now. Link to article?

PS put a trailer hitch on the prius and you will have the most efficient hybrid in the world.

It's gonna take a long time to fill the Prius up with gas with that little hose.

Techically that system might work well for Nissan Leaf owners. :unibrow:

It's possible to convert a Prius to plug in hybrid or electrical only. Maybe that's what they did to that car and then had troubles? I don't know. However, it does clearly show why electric cars are a waste for the most part. The electricity has to be generated from somewhere. Coal is still the major power source for electricity generation.
