Prius Continues Torrid Pace in Japan and US

Toyota continues to outsell everyone else in Japan with the third generation Prius. Over 25,000 units were sold in Japan for the month of July (Source:Over 25,000 Toyota Prius hybrid cars sold in July › Japan Today: Japan News and Discussion). That's up from the 22,292 units sold in June.

And sales should continue at this pace as long as the production can meet it. Pre-orders have set up a backlog of orders that should take a year to fill in. The tax break and other incentives in Japan have really given the Prius a huge start.

US sales have also seen a big jump, with Toyota selling over 19,000 units in the US. Production can't keep with that sort of demand.
