85. Deathknell for US automakers.
A quote from your first article:

"We want to maker sure the hybrid powertrain becomes part of the mainstream and allocated a level of production that requires us to start marketing the car like any other car..."

Personally, I read that as saying that not only are they selling a car that is right for the times, a car that is popular with the public, but by selling it at an aggressive price point, they plan to use it as the leading point of a wedge with which they will TAKE OVER the US car market.
