Toyota executives familiar with the impending move said that supply of the red-hot Prius for the U.S. market, which is pegged at around 47,000 vehicles a year, might even double eventually as a result of the anticipated expansion. The executives said the Japanese auto maker most likely would expand Prius output by producing it at an additional location in Japan.
Except they are still available in the US untill end of model year 2005, so at least another year. Anyhow, these are not cancelled in Europe.
