The isuzu partnership is paying rich dividends to toyota,now they have gained expertise in the next generation diesel engines as well.Diesels are know to be particularly fuel-efficent and combined with hybrid technology cars could soon be running with an efficiency of 100 MPG or more[ok I am an optimist].Plus diesel engines need not necessarily compromise on power to be fuel-efficient so you can enjoy the best of both worlds.
Toyota's recent purchase of a 5.9% stake in Isuzu will bear fruit in 2010 when the Japanese juggernaut marries its Synergy hybrid drive system with a diesel engine.JapanToday is reporting that a Toyota subcompact with this diesel hybrid drivetrain will be available as soon as 2010.
