Study launched to understand plug-in hybrid consumers

Toyota Prius hybrid from Hybrids-Plus

The University of California-Davis Plug-In Hybrid Center will provide 10 Toyota Prius hybrids that have been converted into plug-in hybrid vehicles to 100 families in Northern California.

For six to eight weeks the families will use one of the plug-in hybrids and take a couple of surveys on preferences and attitudes towards plug-in hybrid vehicles to help provide more understanding about how consumers will use the hybrid cars.

The program is expected to last 2 years.
