Toyota showcased a prototype of its highly anticipated new RAV4 EV at the Los Angeles Auto Show this week. Meanwhile, on the other side of the ocean, executives made a series of intriguing new announcements about its electric-drive vehicles.

The tiny 55-miles-per-gallon four-seater will make its debut in Japan before the end of this year, and begin European sales in early 2009. Now that it's headed to roadways in Japan and Europe, the question is whether or not the iQ will make it across the Atlantic. And more importantly, are Americans ready for a call this small?
