“Prius plug-in hybrid” is always lent to the citizens in Aichi Prefecture Toyota City.
Toyota City introduces a Prius plug-in hybrid of 20 total as a state vehicle in fiscal year 2009, and has been used for not only use to official duties but also various events. Lending will be started from doing the trial-ride fair of a Prius plug-in hybrid to “Waiting power festival” held in March, 2010 and “Eco-May Day” in May, etc. , and obtaining popular in October aiming at the citizens and the corporation.
“Charge station” in three places is installed in Toyota City, and the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle is arranged by 2?3, and the vehicle of seven totals is lent. The applicant for use can use it up to five times in total once for the individual in three hours if it does with Michi Nabis [toyota]” ..it is in the central portion of application of the city.. ..”…
After lending starts, the citizens are 50 people, and the corporation is 7 in the user of one month. The main impression in use is “Because gasoline is hardly used, it is good”, and “It was possible to run just like a usual gasoline car. “, etc. though the number of data seemed still to be little, and to take time a little more about the total.
As for Toyota City, when the plan to be going to introduce 100 plug-in hybrid electric vehicles as a state vehicle by fiscal year 2014 aims at the achievement of the low carbon society, aims at promotion of “Natural energy” (”Make to the zero emission” by the use of the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle and the photovoltaic generation), and is made, and is marketed, the purchase support to the citizens is scheduled.
Toyota City people’s concerns concerning the eco-friendly car are high, and the method of acquiring information of the eco-friendly car of plug-in hybrid electric vehicle is announcing to public, seeming a homepage, and be the newspapers etc. of the city. There seems to be a plan of expanding the disposition of the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle to the branch office in Toyota City in the future, too.

“Prius plug-in hybrid” is examined as a patrol vehicle in the district while positively advancing the approach on environmental problems, and it will introduce it in Koto Ward, Tokyo in March, 2010. To advance this business more positively, the next generation eco-friendly car that can be charged from a domestic power supply will be introduced though “Gas-and-electric-powered car” that considered the environment and conservation of energy was used at first from be begun “Safety safety patrol business” in Koto Ward.
The exhaust of carbon dioxide is a little, and the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle is environment-friendly eco-friendly car, and because the sound is also very quiet, is best for running at nighttime. It seems to mobilize to patrol every evening to live inhabitants of a wards’ safe and being relieved. The body of the vehicle is drawn a special design and is very nifty. Is the mobilization time of patrol 23:45 every day?It seems to be likely sometimes to patrol it in daytime though it is 8:45. Moreover, it is likely to participate in various events as one of the eco-enlightening activities to inhabitants of a wards.
The light of “Hybrid power generation” using the force of the wind and sunlight is set up in Koto Ward Office. Moreover, the booklet concerning the ecodrive and the eco-friendly car is issued for the eco-activity enlightenment to the inhabitants of a ward, and it distributes it in Koto Ward. Ardent posture of Koto Ward to the environmental protection is transmitted from such a approach, the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle was chosen as a patrol car, and it is possible to consent.

It introduces advanced system “Toyota smart center” of Toyota Motor.
“Toyota smart center” is a system that controls an integrated energy consumption as one of the approachs on network of the electric power of the next generation “Smart grid” that aims at efficient use of energy to achieve the low carbon society at the early stage. And, “Prius plug-in hybrid” of the next generation eco-friendly car seems to be used for this experiment.
“Smart center” can control electricity from the outside of the house by using “Smart phone” by using Prius plug-in hybrid and “Smart house”, and managing demand and the supply of a necessary, indispensable in live about every day electric power.
The house has the power generation function, and the smart house can generate electricity and accumulate electricity. In addition, the function that the amount of electricity used at home and the amount of the exhaust of carbon dioxide can be able to be confirmed, and to manage the charge situation of the eco-friendly car such as plug-in hybrid electric vehicles is provided, too. In a word, even the management of use and information on power generation, accumulation of electricity, and the electric power is a very convenient system that can do efficiently in bulk.
“Toyota smart center” has been being experimentally operated by using the Toyota home and the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle in 6-place in Aomori Prefecture village since September 16, 2010. The connection making of the house, the person, and the car and the low carbon societies are achieved by “Toyota smart center”, and it aims to support a clean, comfortable total life to the customer.

“Idling stop car” introduces oneself as “The third eco-friendly car” though the gas-and-electric-powered car and the electric vehicle such as Toyota “Prius” might be imagined as for “Eco-friendly car”. In Japan, Mazda took the lead, it adopted, it followed, and other manufacturers began also to adopt it. The price will spread rapidly in addition in low fuel cost even if it is a gasoline car, too.
In Europe in Germany etc. , environment awareness is high, and the idling stop car is already representatives of “Eco-friendly car”. It did not sell too much at that time though Volkswagens preceded in 1999 and the idling stop car was turned on in the market in Europe. It introduced it, and “Eco-boom” in recent years became a fair wind, and BMWs introduced it into “One series” in 2007. The idling stop function put on the market in 2008 and Mercedes Benz put compact car “Smart For Two mud” from which the standard was installed on the market. Turning on to a Japanese market has already been begun as for this idling stop car in December, 2008, too.
The idling stop car appeared from Audi as “Start & stop system” in 2009. As for numbers of sales for the idling stop car, it increases rapidly, and about 904,000 is expected on the inside to which sales of the passenger car get depressed worldwide according to the investigation done in November, 2009 from September in 2009 when numbers of sales for the world are seen.
Especially, European market occupies the majority, and about 881,000 has already started. The idling stop car will spread further by the effluent control of carbon dioxide and the amount of the exhaust of carbon dioxide being shifted to the Automobile Tax system of the standard in Europe in the future.

It is a market scale on which Europe is followed when is in Japan though the idling stop car is paid attention as a new eco-friendly car. It is Mazda to cut the van. Mazda turned on “[Akusera]” in which specific technology “I‐stop” was installed in June, 2009. And, it installed in “[Puremashi-]” of the family car in July, ‘10, and sales started.
The point where the idling stop system is excellent is that the cost that hangs to development is comparatively low. Because the improvement ends only in the engine surroundings, it is an advantage the model in which they are made to install the idling stop system can be increased, and it is possible to offer it to the user more at a low price.
It thinks the idling stop technology to be equipped normally by any car as the professor who has the Waseda University graduate school is the future. A certain investigation is guessed for numbers of sales for the idling stop car of the world to reach up to 10.43 million in 2015. The possibility rises, too, if equipped normally though this numerical value is “11.5 times” one indeed expansion compared with 2009.
This professor is expecting that the idling stop technology becomes the first step on the inside where auto manufacturers are working on the fuel cost improvement as an eco-friendly car for the achievement of further low fuel cost the gasoline car.
Not only Mazda but also Toyota installs the idling stop technology in “Witz” and Daihatsu Kogyo Co., Ltd. installs it partially of “Mira” also in Japan. Moreover, Honda also is selling the car equipped with the idling stop, and it seems to work on this technology positively.
