Toyota continues to roll up the pre-orders, with the latest tally up at 75,000. That sort of demand is a clear indicator that hybrid car sales are about to recover.
Where the Prius goes, hybrid sales go.
Honda, in the meantime, may be talking to battery suppliers about increasing the number of Insights they build. Sales have exceeded the 5,000 they expected each month in Japan (Honda sold 19,475 units so far in Japan), although sales in the US have not been as stellar, with only 2 thousand sold in the first month.
Honda will hold off on any production changes until after they see how the new Prius will affect their sales.
