Hybrids are getting more and more popular in Europe and its starting to trickle into fleet sales. Hertz will be buying 1,200 Prius which will be available for rent in 12 different European countries.
Green Tomato Cars is purchasing 75 Prius for taxi duty in London and the U.K. ministry is looking to buy 90 Prius, primarily for the Environment Agency.
Not to be left out, Honda is selling 50 hybrids to Ikea for use in England.
It seems hybrids may end up being more popular in Europe where once the thought was Europeans preferred diesel.
