Hybrid Altima. Pretty much the Toyota hybrid in a Nissan skin. Ford and Nissan both pay to use Toyota's own system because they don't have one of their own.

Nissan only sells the hybrids in a few states where the emission laws are tougher like Cali or here in CT. Ford has a waiting list for its one hybrid escape. Both companies are also limited because Toyota has the battery producers under sway and limits the #'s of hydride batteries they can use.
