It is a sales tool whish is misleading if I'm correct. Have you looked up the safty rating on these cars those hybird do not look like they provide very much protection in case of an accident.

actually a deduction (which is what it used to be) allows you the 1300 in decreased taxable income, and I believe a credit comes off the bottom line...
I've heard there are stipulations... you cannot lease a hybrid car... only 1 time credit the year you buy it... you cannot sell the car within that time... some other things....
from what I've heard its actually a 1300 dollar difference in your pocket...
the safety ratings on the car are top notch with all of the VSC 7 airbags, and the fact that it is still a camry....
