In May, Toyota Prius Prime Sales In Japan Went Through The Roof

Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid (AKA the Prius Prime in U.S.) set a new sales record last month in Japan, obliterating all previous “best efforts” by other OEMs.

New registrations surged to 5,369, which was a third of the total Prius family sales.

Japanese sources reports that higher incentives (from May) influenced the results (after they sank April).

Past just the Japanese number itself, the main takeaway we get from the result is Toyota’s sheer ability to produce and deliver its popular model, and so quickly after its introduction.

Anhydrous ammonia for NOx reduction

Source: Real World NOx reduction by City-SCR

Diesel vehicles need SCR catalysts to reduce NOx and SCR catalysts need ammonia to work. ASDS™ unlocks the full potential of the SCR by dosing gaseous as opposed to liquid containing ammonia into the exhaust stream. This allows for a NOx reduction of up to 99% in all climates and real driving conditions including slow city traffic.

ASDS™ achieves 3-5 times better NOx reduction in city driving with no CO2 increase (cold engines) and 20% better NOx reduction on motorways (hot engines)

That is an anhydrous ammonia tank being exchanged. Compare that to the 5-10,000 psi hydrogen fool-cell tanks, this is the way to go. Feed the ammonia to a catalyst to break it down into nitrogen...
