This week we have updates and pricing on two much-anticipated hybrids: the Toyota Camry and Lexus GS 450h. In Europe, Citroen releases the C2 with fuel-saving start/stop technology that turns off the engine when the car is not moving. California plug-in hybrid pioneers, CalCars set loose on the world an animated short from the makers of The Meatrix. TreeHuggers relish Chevy's offer of a do-it-yourself Tahoe advertisement contest. A high school kid from Utah gets presidential acclaim for showing that electric cars are anything but slow. And L.A. hipsters get veggie oil fever as Lovecraft comes to town.
