So how many people bought a Prius in China last year?

It would better to skip Topgear, and go directly to the source.
(Brainwash is a two fold game)

Not easy to understand why, in fact.

 

that means Prius has not been sold last year in China at all.

But I remember it selling, just low numbers... it is very expensive car in China.

 

Wow!

I was in Shanghai last week and on my way out on Friday, spotted a gen III in the car park outside our office. Maybe this was the actual sole Prius car

 

irrelevant.

The Chinese are building their own hybrids--by government mandate.

 

Toyota Slashes Prius Stickers in China

It was likely an old one.

Remember Japan committed atrocities in China. There is also not a high level of environmental activism. So the prius is expensive and represents an oppressor to the Chinese people. Its not hard to understand low sales.

 

I wonder who the lucky buyer was............probably an American living in China!
