Also, lithium bats have completely different charge/discharge characteristics, so I 2nd that.... Reprogrammed or new ECU will be needed, and possibly some other component or two. I don't know if that will all happen in time to be worth it, or if it could take 10 or more years.
I think progress has been relatively slow w/ batteries/hybrid systems. Is anything aftermarket even available for enhancing the prius electric drive system? That car's been around a long time, now.
