    The RAV4 Hybrid accounts for roughly 1/4 of all RAV4 sales in Canada (and of course that makes it the best selling Toyota hybrid in Canada).

    RAV4 Hybrid leading the pack. :confused:

    There was 918 Prius Prime sold, and 215 (1133-918) regular Prius?

    Maybe more so, compacts, sedans and hatchbacks are less and less.

    Yeah it's been holding around the mid 100s to mid 200s per month. A far cry from the Gen 2 and 3 days.

    In terms of YTD passenger car sales, it's the 3rd best (after Corolla and Camry). In terms of all Toyota-only vehicles, it's 8th place. The Tundra, Tacoma, Sienna and RAV4 leading ahead.

    In the fall of 2010 when we bought, it seemed like about 100 Prius on our dealership's lot, lol. I exaggerate, slightly...

    Six months back they definitely had more Prime stock than Prius, maybe three-to-one. Now it's about 50/50, and just one or two of each.

    Huh, currently: 2 prius, no prime.

    Ooh, they have a base model in Classic Silver Metallic. That would have a spare and all.

    One of the dealers still has 2018 RAV4s and has 2 Prii (black and silver) and 2 Primes (silver and blue). That's only at the dealership. I don't know how many they have off site.
