Way Cool Green Concept Vehicles - Photo Gallery

When Toyota unveiled its super-sized Tundra pickup a couple of years ago, environmentalists went apoplectic. In response, Toyota produced a kinder, gentler concept hybrid pickup in the form of the Toyota A-BAT. Powered by a 4-cylinder gas engine combined with Toyota’s Hybrid Synergy Drive, the A-BAT was unveiled at the 2008 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Aesthetically, the A-BAT takes on a tight aerodynamic look. It also touts translucent solar panels in the top surface of the dashboard to capture sunlight and convert it into energy.
