There were a couple that exploded. There are shops in various places (one of them is in Raleigh) that does aftermarket conversions. They are expensive, the batteries are killer. > Is Toyota coming out with a plug-in? Rumor has said yes for a few years now, but... YMMV. :) Realistically I think the Volt model is better conceptually than a full hybrid+plugin, and the Leaf even better if you don't need to travel far.
