So the short end of it, no unless you hear something officially from Toyota. I think they might wait and see how the FIT hybrid does. Then again Honda's hybrid system is not a true hybrid system, its a mild-hybrid. But I don't know about the FIT's system.

The Fit Hybrid uses the same mild hybrid system as the Insight. But that doesn't matter to me if the cost is less to make up for it.
