With a new Prius model coming to the UK next year, it looks like Toyota might not want to get rid of the old one so it can compete with the new Honda Insight. As these two hybrid icons fight it out, it seems new car buyers will win. Another rumor hit AutoblogGreen yesterday: the GM E-Flex vehicle in Great Britain will be dubbed the Electra when it is released in 2011. Will the old Buick (or Marvel hero) name catch on? We'll just have to wait and see.
