Toyota told Ward's auto they were dropping their annual sales goals for the HS 250h in the US from it's current 25,000 units a year to 20,000 - 22,000. And not because the US is rejecting the HS 250h, either.
Instead, sales are going so well in Japan Toyota is keeping inventory there, instead.
Toyota started out by targeting 30,000 units a year, but dropped to 25,000. Now they are redirecting another 3,000 to 5,000 units elsewhere. They also tripled production of the HS 250h back in October.
Japan's policy for encouraging hybrid sales is certainly doing just that.
