Yet again, Toyota does it again, leaving GM to cry in its beer

This time, it’s announced the third-generation Prius will have solar panels.

That will help power the A/C, especially in hotter climates, thereby keeping gas engine usage down.

And, for all you people on a five-month Prius waiting list? Toyota says it will make about 450,000 in 2009, up 60 percent from 2007 numbers.

And, that cratering sound you just heard was GM’s stock falling to about, oh, the $2 mark. There’s no way in hell Volt, even if it’s out in some version in 2010, will be out with solar panels.
